What's at Stake When Real Estate Deals Go Wrong
Real estate transactions involve some of the largest financial decisions you'll ever make. A contract reviewed too late, a deed transfer handled incorrectly, or a lease signed without legal eyes on it can cost you far more than an attorney ever would. At The Curry Law Firm, we work with buyers, sellers, investors, landlords, and business owners across Houston and Georgia to make sure the legal side of your real estate matters is handled correctly from the start.
We're not a referral firm. Our attorneys handle real estate matters alongside your business formation, contracts, and estate planning — so when your real estate question connects to your business structure or your long-term plan, you get a team that already knows the full picture.
Real Estate Legal Services We Handle
Asylum
Seeking protection after persecution or fear of returning home can feel emotionally exhausting and legally confusing. The asylum process becomes more manageable when your case is approached with preparation, compassion, and careful immigration-focused guidance.
Survivors pursuing immigration relief under VAWA often need a legal process that feels safe, respectful, and confidential. Wogwu Law, PLLC helps clients understand their options while building a path toward greater stability and independence.
VAWA Immigration Relief
Green card and adjustment cases can become stressful when timelines, forms, and immigration history all affect the process. Clients receive structured guidance designed to reduce confusion and help them move through status-related applications more confidently.
Green Cards & Adjustment of Status
Investor LLC & Series LLC Formation
If you're building a real estate investment portfolio, the right entity structure isn't optional — it's the foundation everything else sits on. We help investors form LLCs and Series LLCs designed to hold property, limit liability, and scale.
Commercial Lease Review
A commercial lease is not a standard document. It's a negotiation, and the first draft almost always favors the landlord. We review commercial leases line by line so you know exactly what you're agreeing to before you sign.
Deed Transfers & Closing Documents
Whether you're transferring property between family members, adding a co-owner, or closing on a sale, the paperwork has to be right. We prepare and review deed transfers and closing documents to make sure title moves cleanly.
Real Estate Contract Review
Purchase agreements, seller's disclosures, option contracts — every real estate transaction generates documents that carry real legal weight. We review real estate contracts so you understand your rights, your obligations, and your exit options before you're bound to anything.
When Your Real Estate Matter Becomes a Dispute
Not every transaction closes cleanly. If a deal has gone sideways — a breach of contract, a title issue, a landlord-tenant conflict, or a property dispute — our litigation team is ready to step in. Because we handle both transactional work and litigation under one roof, we can shift from advising to advocating without missing a step.

Common Questions About Real Estate Legal Services
Do I need a lawyer to review a real estate contract in Texas?
Texas law doesn't require it, but the standard contracts used in residential transactions leave room for negotiation — and commercial contracts are almost entirely negotiable. Having an attorney review your contract before you sign means you understand what you're agreeing to, not after a problem surfaces.
What's the difference between a Series LLC and a regular LLC for real estate investing?
A standard LLC holds all of your assets in one structure, which means a liability claim against one property can potentially reach the others. A Series LLC allows you to create separate "cells" within one entity — each property sits in its own protected compartment. For investors holding multiple properties, this structure can offer meaningful liability separation without the cost of forming a new LLC for every asset.
Can you help with real estate matters in Georgia?
Yes. Our firm is licensed in both Texas and Georgia, so we can assist clients with real estate contracts, entity formation, and related legal matters in either state.
How do I know if my commercial lease terms are standard?
There's no universal standard for commercial leases — terms vary significantly by landlord, market, and property type. What matters is whether the terms are acceptable for your specific situation. We review commercial leases regularly and can quickly identify provisions that are unusual, one-sided, or likely to create problems down the road.
What does a deed transfer involve, and how long does it take?
A deed transfer involves preparing the correct deed type for your situation, ensuring the legal description of the property is accurate, and filing the document with the appropriate county. Timelines depend on the complexity of the transaction and county processing times, but straightforward transfers can often be completed within a few weeks.
