I am working on a project with Gitta Robinson. She is located in Dumbo. Works with her husband. Very easy to work with and fees are reasonable.

Our lawyer's flat rate is $2000. We paid him less, as friends, but I think the consensus is that $2000 is pretty standard.

They bargain on most transactions being straightforward. So you pay less than the hourly fee would come to in a complex closing, more than it'd come to in a simple closing. The thing is, you don't know until you start signing things just how complex the closing is going to be. In our case ... well. We got way, way more than our money's worth and I still thank my lucky stars that we had a good lawyer.

$5000, though? Woah.

I used Robert (Bob) Dubno twice in the last 6 years and found him to be very thorough. I dont remember what I paid but I highly recommend him for brownstone purchases or sales as he is very familiar with all. He is on 7th avenue and President

i hadnt thought about the comparison of value added by lawyers and brokers.

Now I'm pissed off.

Posted by: slick at June 21, 2009 2:35 AM in response to Is Lawyer Fee Reasonable?

I made the same observation last year when we sold our house... Why does the broker make so much and the re lawyer so little in comparison. The lawyer truly did 10x the work.
