REAL ESTATE LAW
What We Believe

There are specific laws in Texas that determine how someone can acquire, sell, or transfer ownership of property. On top of those real estate requirements are specific industry terms and conditions that become confusing or frustrating, especially when added to an already stressful situation.

At Phillips & Phillips, we assist you in properly executing your real estate transaction in a straightforward, no-nonsense manner. We advocate for your best interests, properly research and review the real estate details, finalize and correct the required documents, provide clarity on terms and conditions, and execute the deal in a legally sound manner.

Some of the real estate services we can help with are deeds, notes, deeds of trust, earnest money contracts, leases, wills, affidavits of heirship, and powers of attorney.

Additionally, both Kenneth Phillips and Ross Phillips are fee attorneys for American Title Company of Houston.
