A run-in with the law is the last thing
we expect when we enter into any contracts in pursuit of the good life. But a legal hassle does confront many
unsuspecting people because of the all too common practice of allowing the
wrong kind of lawyers handle the legal aspects of such contracts for them. For example, you acquire a piece of real
estate and let the legal paperwork be done entirely by a law office that
specializes in civil cases. This is
courting legal problems later on since civil lawyers are experts on cases
arising from property or money disputes but not the finer points of real estate
laws.
It is precisely for this reason that
boutique law firms have gained tremendous popularity in recent years. Attorneys specializing in one niche area of
practice are in fact now regarded as the future of the legal profession. While
most law firms structure themselves to offer a broad range of services, a
growing number of lawyers are setting up boutique law practices. These new
firms are choosing to focus their work on one area of the law rather than try
to maintain the general practice culture of the big law firms. As such, they rarely fail their clients who
are assured of a dedicated legal service whose attention and expertise are
fixated on the subject they are hired for.
One such law firm that proves to be a
cut above the rest is the friendly and accommodating Brettin Law Offices PLLC
that concentrates on real estate, business and franchise transactions and litigation. Brettin is now a byword when it comes to
legal advise/counseling on property acquisition and development, buy and sell
of homes and small businesses, commercial and residential landlord-tenant
relationships, and buy and sell of franchisees.
The firm is based in Seattle, Washington and serves clients from all
over.
