Document Review

Opening your mail can sometimes feel like spinning the Wheel of Fortune; you’ll often hope for some unexpected good news, you will definitely receive a bill or two, and you might receive something a little more complicated than you expected. Receiving a legal document can be stressful, and legal jargon is near incomprehensible for those of us who do not posses a law degree. Fortunately, getting help deciphering your documents is often more affordable, and will provide you with more peace of mind, than one might expect.

An attorney can help with more than just understanding what your documents are saying, but also with what your next steps should be. While Fortress Law & Realty does not handle every type of case in the large world of litigation, we can certainly help you make sense of the situation and point you to a trusted professional who can guide you through the rest of the process if we cannot.

Intestacy, Easement, Oyez?

One of the most important things that a lawyer gains from their law school education is fluency in the complex language of legal terms and phrases. Law students spend every moment of their three year education slowly learning to deconstruct the dense and, frankly, unnecessary language that makes up the legal documents that they deal with everyday. If you have received a document in the mail, have questions about a real estate deed, or the meaning and effect of a contract, lease, or other document, you can rest easy. At Fortress Law & Realty we are fluent in legalese.

You may wonder why the deed to your home is a general warranty deed as opposed to a special warranty deed. Maybe you’ve just received notice that a neighbor, or the city, have an easement on your property and are wondering what that means for you. Or perhaps you are dealing with a lawsuit and would like to understand exactly how you are protected by the bona fide purchaser rule. Whatever it is, we can help you make sense of your legal documents without breaking the bank.
