ATTENTION In a real estate deal don’t use the same lawyer as the other party to the transaction. At Cohen Segelov Advocates and Notaries we are often asked the question: Can an Israeli lawyer represent both parties (namely the buyer and the seller) in a real estate transaction? The answer depends on the type of property being sold / purchased: In regard to private second hand sales/purchases of apartments in Israel- if both parties agree the same lawyer can represent the buyer and the seller. In regard to the purchase of an apartment in a newly constructed building or “buying off the plan” from a developer or a contractor the buyer and seller can’t be represented by the same lawyer. Whilst using the same lawyer for a private second hand sale/purchase may reduce legal fees and sometimes “ speed up” the process the role of a “ shared” lawyer becomes that of a draftsperson who seeks to find mutual consensus which may compromise one or both of the parties rights When a seller/buyer has his/her own lawyer the role of the lawyer is to act solely in the interest of the client to exclusively protect his/her rights and interests. We at Cohen Segelov Advocates and Notaries always advise our clients to seek independent legal counsel. Cohen Segelov Advocates has more than 35 years of expertise in the area of real estate law.
