Real Estate Lawyers

Experience, Skills, and Personality Traits

Experience as a real estate law intern is highly recommended. 

Lawyers must be effective communicators, work well with people, and be able to find creative solutions to problems, such as complex court cases or real estate issues. They should also have strong ethics. Cases are often complex, and a lawyer might be tempted to cut corners or not act in an ethical way in order to earn more money or speed up legal proceedings. Other important traits include strong research skills, the ability to direct the work of others, and excellent time-management skills.
