McMichael and Gray - Monroe Sureeta Raheem-El: I absolutely would NOT recommend this law firm to handle your real estate closing! Unfortunately, we used them several years ago to close on two properties at the request of the seller. We thought everything was fine until we needed to refinance one of the properties. We were informed during the title search that the security deed was mistakenly attached to the wrong property. This error had to be corrected before we could move forward.
It was an absolute nightmare and caused our closing to be delayed several weeks. This delay costs us hundreds of dollars in extra closing costs/fees. They initially admitted to their error but instead of taking full responsibility, they were only willing to partially take responsibility...which meant they would only pay for half of our additional fees but not the entire amount. After weeks of back and forth I was so angry and worn out from the whole ordeal, I just wanted to be done with it.
In retrospect, it was only a few hundred dollars but I am a business owner and there is no way that I would EVER make my clients pay for MY mistake! Their gross negligence costs us money and that is absolutely unacceptable. I am a Realtor, and my clients depend on me to recommend reputable law firms to handle their closings. To be honest, I would never use their services again and would not recommend them to anyone.
