A Trusted Legal Team With Over 40 Years of Experience in Honolulu, HI
Let Hawaii Convey provide an excellent real estate or business lawyer from our Honolulu, HI office. Our legal team has over 40 years of experience in real estate, estate planning, and business law matters. Our attention to detail and desire to provide excellent representation makes us a great choice as counsel to serve your legal needs. Whether you just want to talk to us about your legal or real estate matter or are looking to obtain legal representation, feel free to call our law office to make an appointment.
Our Process
It often starts with a phone call or a meeting. When you contact our office, you will often speak with one of our helpful paralegals, who will gather your preliminary information. They can often address the issue at that stage if it involves a conveyance or other mistrial matter. They will refer you to one of our attorneys if they cannot address the issue. At your initial meeting or conference, our attorneys will gather additional information and discuss our document needs, or, if your consultation involves a dispute, your rights and obligations, and your options depending on your circumstance.*
Once you engage our law firm, we will be there with you every step of the way to ensure your legal needs are met and to assist you in meeting your document needs (for real estate and business transactions) or in resolving the legal problems and issues you might be facing if your issue(s) involve a dispute. If you come to us for a real estate or business transaction, our focus is to assist you in avoiding future legal problems and issues. We often “fix” problems that other third parties, including other attorneys, create. When it comes to business law and real estate transactions, prevention is almost always better than the cure. If your matter involves a legal dispute, we always look for ways to resolve your issues before pursuing litigation. That often saves our clients lots of time and money.
Personal Attention
When you choose to work with Hawaii Convey, you are not just another client. We will give you personalized attention that you find difficult to obtain elsewhere. We are experienced, focused, and passionate about our work and pride ourselves on achieving favorable results. While other firms mail your legal documents or employ third-party messenger services to record your deeds and other property conveyance and transaction documents, our law office personally delivers your deeds and other important documents to the appropriate state or county agency for recording to ensure proper delivery and processing.
Excellent legal service requires outstanding communication. This is another cornerstone of our philosophy at Hawaii Convey. We not only listen carefully to the needs and concerns of our clients, but we also make sure they are informed every step of the way, often through telephone conferences and by E-mail. We work with our clients as a team and keep them informed as matters progress so that they can make the best decision(s) possible. It is the clients’ decisions that count – not ours. We are your legal advisors here to help you make the best decisions possible. We do our best to perform the legal work you request, and we do not take it upon ourselves to substitute our judgment or preferences for yours as to what work you wish us to perform.
Notification as to all Matters Relating to Your Communications With Our Firm:
- No attorney-client relationship is established by contacting the firm;
- No confidential information should be sent to us via the Internet
- Unless agreed to in writing by us, our firm is not responsible for the completion of any client’s tax returns, and we will either advise clients of the deadlines for their tax filings or advise them to seek tax or other counsel as to their filing deadlines
