Attorney Real Estate California
StoneCrest Law Firm works hand-in-hand with their affiliated real estate brokerage, StoneCrest Realty. When you hire StoneCrest Realty to represent you if you are buying or selling, you work with us both as real estate agents and as attorneys – that’s our two-in-one promise! As attorneys we provide complete legal representation that you can count on, because your interests are protected above everything else. Protect yourself, use a real estate attorney to buy or sell your home.
Selling a home is filled with legal contracts, disclosures, agreements and potential issues. Why wouldn’t you have a real estate attorney to review and advise you on these? You are clearly best served by not only having an experienced real estate agent handle your listing but an experienced real estate lawyer there as well to review and advise you on the entire sale process as well as legally represent your best interests.
It is important to leverage the expertise of a real estate attorney to guide you through the sale process. Whether it is to protect yourself against a future lawsuit from either the buyer or lender (in case of a short sale) or simply to handle a difficult negotiation with your buyer or lender, we have the education, experience and skills to make sure you are protected and represented in the highest capacity.
From its beginning in 2006, StoneCrest Law Firm has consulted with and assisted 14,000 individuals, business owners, and families. Our principal attorney practices in the field of real estate law including transactions involved with buying and selling real estate. As she handled more and more of these transactions and dealt with real estate agents and their brokers, she realized her clients would definitely benefit from real estate brokerage services as well. StoneCrest Realty was thus born in 2011 and quickly rose to the top.
With this model, we’re able to represent you as your lawyers, not just as your agents. This makes a big difference – and we offer expertise and services that conventional real estate agents can’t. As lawyers, we have a legal obligation that real estate agents do not have to adhere to – which means we are always looking out for your best interests.

In-House Brokerage to Serve You
StoneCrest Law Firm remains an steadfast pillar in the real estate marketplace. We found that working with many real estate agents was a frustrating process of educating them on real estate law and how to properly protect our clients’ interests. In response, we created an in-house affiliated brokerage, StoneCrest Realty, to properly service our clients’ needs and adequately protect their interests. This allows us to control all aspects of the real estate transaction to make certain nothing goes wrong, and our clients are protected and not the victims of uneducated agents and their promotion of their own self-interests.
