There are few areas of residential real estate with which Michael has not had experience in the past 40+ years. For many years he described himself as a dirt attorney. If it touched ground, it was in his bailiwick.
His experience includes buying, selling, financing, single-family homes, condos, townhomes, multifamily homes, construction, boundary disputes, quiet title issues, litigation, landlord and tenant problems (commercial only), zoning, commercial sales, large and small acquisitions and mergers, 1031 exchanges, selection of ownership entity - proprietorship, partnership, limited partnership, corporation, LLC, land trusts, broker and customer relationships and disputes, broker/agent relationships, disputes among trades, trades and suppliers, both in residential and commercial settings, and many different real estate matters and problems.

As your real estate law adviser, representing and protecting you, and you alone, is my only job. You are my sole concern. I have no divided loyalties. Experiencing the loss of a loved one is never easy. From difficult emotional economic legal issues surrounding end of life through distribution of assets, allow Michael to help by guiding you through the legal issues so you can more easily resolve the economic and emotional issues.
If you think so, try to negotiate both the "boilerplate" of the listing agreement and the economic terms. The listing agreement is the agreement between you and the real estate broker and or agent. You may be able to negotiate the percentage rate charged for the realtor's commission. But not the boilerplate, the so called "fine print".
Experiencing the loss of a loved one is never easy. Distributing their assets can be difficult emotionally and legally. It can be complicated. If you are just beginning this process or if you are in the middle of administering an estate and need assistance, Michael can help. Whether with or without a will, complications can still arise and prolong the process Michael strives to alleviate the stress of those going through the process.
If you are over 18, in most states, you have a Will. If you didn't write one for yourself, your state Maryland legislature wrote one for you - the statutes may not provide what you want. For example, in Maryland as of this writing, if you are survived by your spouse and children, at least one of whom is a minor, the spouse receives one half of the net probate estate and the children divide the remaining amount equally.
For the last several years I have been using technology to reduce the number of in person visits at my office. The technologies I have been using are Skype and Zoom. This permits us to have face-to-face meetings, but without being physically in each other's presence in the same room. We use our computers to carry our images and words as if we were in the same room.

When our home was damaged by renovations at two neighboring properties, we reached out to Mr. Freilich for legal help. He was extremely responsive, getting back to us almost immediately. After listening to our concerns, Mr. Freilich charted a legal strategy to help us resolve our problems. In all our dealings with Mr. Freilich, he was extremely professional, knowledgeable, skillful, and attentive.

I just moved to Baltimore and bought my first auction rehab row home property. I ran into a legal problem with my closing. I called 15 law firms and Michael was the only lawyer who answered my call on a Saturday afternoon. He quickly looked over buyers contracts, advised me and helped me to resolve my problem by the next morning. I will be using Freilich for all of my property issues from here on out.
