Fort Lauderdale’s real estate market moves quickly, and transactions here often involve layers of legal detail that require more than just a basic contract. Whether you’re a buyer closing on a downtown condo, a landlord managing a lease in Victoria Park, or an investor forming an LLC, the legal decisions you make can have lasting consequences. At Kelley & Grant, P.A.—proud members of the Florida Bar Association—we help clients across Fort Lauderdale address real estate matters with structure, clarity, and confidence.
Our team guides contract drafting, lease disputes, escrow deposit issues, deed transfers, and real estate entity formation. We work with buyers, landlords, and commercial property owners to ensure legal protections are in place from start to finish.
Why Seek Representation?
Fort Lauderdale’s zoning mix—ranging from dense urban development along Las Olas to waterfront homes in Harbor Beach—means real estate transactions often involve HOA regulations, city planning codes, or unique contractual considerations. A missed clause or unclear agreement can delay closings, affect financing, or spark disputes.
We help clients understand how Chapter 83 of the Florida Statutes applies to rental agreements, deposit procedures, and property management disputes. With the right legal advice, you can minimize exposure and focus on your transaction goals.
Key Steps in Fort Lauderdale
- Contract and Lease Drafting: We prepare, review, and revise agreements that support property transfers, rentals, and corporate structures.
- Local Due Diligence: We review zoning, title records, and municipal data using tools like the Broward County Property Appraiser.
- Resolving Legal Disputes: We assist in handling conflicts tied to escrow funds, repair disclosures, and contract enforcement.
- Coordinating Closings: We manage the required steps for closing transactions, including disbursements and compliance with municipal regulations similar to those found in Fort Lauderdale Planning & Zoning, when applicable.
Our Approach to Fees
Our clients appreciate clear, fixed-rate billing options whenever possible. For routine matters—like residential lease reviews or LLC formations—we offer flat fees based on the scope of work.
In more complex or litigation-based cases, we’ll outline potential costs in advance. Open communication and transparency about fees are priorities from the initial consultation onward.
