Law offices are usually pleasant, although busy, places to work. Lawyers also spend significant amounts of time in law libraries or record rooms, and in the homes and offices of clients. They may also do onsite visits or investigations of property for a particular case. They may represent clients at closings or court appearances.
Often real estate lawyers have to work long hours, spending evenings and weekends preparing cases and materials and working with clients. In addition to the work, the lawyer must always keep up with the latest developments in the industry. Also, it takes a long time to become a qualified lawyer, and it may be difficult to earn an adequate living until the lawyer gets enough experience to develop an established private practice.
Real estate lawyers who are employed at law firms must often work grueling hours to advance in the firm. Spending long weekend hours doing research and interviewing people should be expected. Some travel may be necessary, especially when dealing with property located out of state, or if the law firm has satellite offices.
