When Your Broker Is Also Your Lawyer
Most luxury buyers assemble a team: a broker to find the property, an attorney to review the contract, and a hope that the two communicate. With Michael L. Feinstein, that work sits with one professional from the first showing to the closing table. For buyers searching for a high asset broker attorney, the difference is practical. The person negotiating your price is the same person reading the title commitment, the association minutes, and the seller disclosures. Problems get spotted before you are under contract, not after. Learn how our attorney-broker representation for luxury buyers works from first consultation to closing.

Why Attorney-Broker Representation Matters After the NAR Settlement
Since August 2024, buyers working with an MLS broker sign a written agreement before touring homes. That agreement sets the broker’s duties and compensation, and it is a binding contract. If you are signing one anyway, sign it with someone who reads it as a lawyer and who can explain how commission credits, buyer-paid fees, and seller concessions will play out in your deal.

Litigation Experience, Applied to Buyer Protection
After decades of litigating real estate disputes in South Florida, we know where high-value purchases go wrong. Our buyer representation is built to catch those issues early:
- Unpermitted work: additions and renovations verified against municipal records before you make an offer
- Undisclosed defects: seller disclosures reviewed with a litigator’s eye, backed by inspections from licensed contractors
- Title and easement problems: encroachments, boundary issues, and clouded title identified before closing
- Condo milestone inspections and reserves: association records reviewed for special assessment exposure (what luxury condo buyers should check)
- Privacy and ownership structure: purchasing through an entity when confidentiality matters (privacy planning for high-profile buyers)
- Contract ambiguity: contingencies and deadlines written so they hold up if tested
