Currently, the majority of real estate transactions are carried out using the support of lawyers. The exclusive competence of lawyers, namely in providing legal consultation, that is, the legal advice activity that consists of interpreting, creating a strategy and applying legal standards at the request of a third party, is very important for the owner or client, carry out this type of operation safely and efficiently.
On the other hand, the practice of preparatory acts, namely those inherent to the constitution, alteration or even termination of legal transactions, namely those carried out at registry offices and notary offices, is essential.
The preparation or review of the respective contracts, with a view to formalizing legal transactions, is also a critical service. Furthermore, it is also very important to grant a mandate, also known as a power of attorney, by which the client grants the lawyer powers for specific situations, such as powers to represent;
Negotiate; constitute, make agreements, carry out administrative procedures, etc. Nowadays, it is common to have cases in which real estate agencies, relying on existing drafts, change them and make adjustments according to what is requested of them, but, although the individual has the right to appoint a proxy and mandate a family member, friend or lawyer for this purpose, for example, this does not justify a real estate agency being able to carry out exclusive acts for lawyers and solicitors on a habitual and regular basis.
