Beginning and building a real estate law practice offers many advantages: the underlying law changes relatively slowly while offering a satisfying opportunity to develop a base of steady clients and professional relationships. Written by a veteran real estate law attorney, How to Build a Real Estate Law Practice offers useful and essential guidance, whether you are in your first years of practice and are just starting to focus on real estate as a legal practice, or if you've already started in the area. Author Dean Alterman shares pointers that you can incorporate into your daily practice as well as for your long-term business plan. Real estate law offers a broad range of specialties, some that lead to the courtroom and others more suited to a desk in an office. Whatever area of real estate law that you practice in, you'll find practice-focused advice that's tailored specifically to the needs of a real estate lawyer.
Topics include:* How to define your practice* Law practice financials: banking and budgeting* Law practice management: setting up an office, from location to equipment and staff* Finding clients and networking* Engagement letters* How (and when) to turn down work* Setting and collecting fees for your work* Communicating with clients and how to best use boilerplate language and forms * Doing business with clients, from referrals to conflicts between them* Growing your practice - and the opposite, how to transition a practice and plan for retirement

Dean Alterman is a founding partner of Folawn Alterman & Richardson LLP, in Portland, Oregan, and has practiced real estate and business law since 1989. Previously, he spent eight years as a real estate agent and three years as chairman of a county planning commission.
