Does Your Lawyer Have Jazz Hands? | Marc Kelly [Profile] Regina SK Lawyer

By

If you haven't done it before, the thought of dealing with a lawyer can be scary. Maybe it's because the movies do a real good job of painting the lawyer as someone who is corporate, rigid and will do everything to bill you $700 for answering a simple phone call. Let me assure you, it's not THAT bad...

As part of the home buying process, you will need to use the services of a lawyer!

My advice is to find a lawyer who specializes in real estate law, with an emphasis on residential real-estate.

I recently sat down with my lawyer; Marc D. Kelly, partner at Kanuka Thuringer LLP in Regina SK in a Google+ Hangout to discuss the what legal process looks like with respect to buying a home. I wanted to have this conversation to take away some of the mystery around the process, outline the lawyer's function and give you some questions to ask a lawyer you are considering hiring.

Now, let me be very clear, if you are in Regina Sk. and need a real-estate lawyer, I strongly encourage you to use Marc D. Kelly. Marc is equal parts professional to equal parts real person. As you will see if you watch the video in it's entire 13 minute glory, not only does Marc have the ability to present information clearly, he is also willing to have a good time (as evidenced by use of Jazz hands in a video outlining the legal process of a real estate transaction).

This should be important to you because...

Although any lawyer can execute the legal transaction, not every lawyer will take the time to make sure you understand what is going on.

And not every lawyer will help you feel comfortable with the process. So with that said, here is the video with The Marc Donald!
