My real estate practice is focused on the Mercer, Middlesex, and Somerset County areas of New Jersey, but I represent clients throughout the state. For purchase, sale and exchange of property, it is necessary to have a lawyer who will listen to and understand your concerns, have an extensive background in real estate transactions, apply analytical thinking to the resolution of issues, and know how to advocate for you.
I believe that I can satisfy those needs. I take the time to resolve problems; to assist with negotiations regarding inspection issues and other matters necessary for the closing. I do the work necessary to prepare and/or review all closing documents, including title evaluation, surveys, and financing documents.

I've used Ray Barson as an attorney for buying and selling properties three times. His attention to detail and follow through was excellent. Having decades of experience on both sides of the real estate spectrum, my experience with Ray has been the most exceptional. I highly recommend him and his services. Thank you, Ray, it's great to have you on my team!

Ray worked with us through a very complicated real estate transaction that became very problematic. He was excellent at defending our interests. We were able to resolve the issues only because of his hard work and diligence. He was always available and extremely knowledgeable. It was a pleasure to work with Ray and we would recommend him without hesitation.

If your looking for a Real Estate attorney look no further. Honest, brilliant, hardworking, analytical, ensures your rights are protected, fully aware of the law, spends time with you regarding any questions you might have, etc. If Google only allowed me to give even a higher rating, I would. I highly recommend Ray Barson, Esq.

Ray is the best attorney that I have ever used. Not only does he always answer the phone when I call, he saved me from loosing my deal. He took hours out of his own day, to reason with an unreasonable seller, while also keeping me in the loop.

I had the privilege of working with Ray on the purchase of my home. Through a unique set of circumstances he was recommended to me. We almost made the mistake of purchasing a house without an attorney and that would have been a costly mistake. Thank you Ray for your care, diligence, and focus on our purchase as you helped us navigate a very difficult situation with the upmost professionalism the entire time!

When buying or selling a home, you need an attorney who has seen it all and can save you time and money by immediately ensuring all of the challenges you could face are addressed ahead of time. And in NJ, it definitely helps to have an attorney who understands NJ Tax laws. Ray's experience has clearly molded him into that ideal attorney.
We were first made aware of Ray back in 2005 when he was representing the buyers of a home we were selling. Anyone who knew anything about real estate knew the name "Ray Barson" and made the same comment, “He’s the best real estate attorney in the state.”

We used Ray to purchase our house in Skillman, new Jersey. Ray is very energetic and very responsive. You can always get hold of him and he seems to have his clients interests at heart rather than the need to make a quick buck. His $900 fee is very reasonable and he is very effective at sorting opinion from fact and really understanding your needs as a client. He is very diligent, experienced and managed to get us $1,500 back for some septic work that needed doing, easily making back the $900 we paid him. We felt that Ray was the only one fighting our side and recommend him highly.
