Legal issues people in Edwards bring to lawyers

• Real Estate — purchases, closings and title work for the valley's vacation homes, condos and resort-area land.
• Business — contracts, leases and formation for the hospitality, retail and outdoor-recreation businesses that serve the Vail Valley.
• Employment — wage and workplace disputes tied to the area's large seasonal resort workforce.

Choosing a law firm in Edwards

Confirm any attorney's license and disciplinary record through the Colorado Supreme Court's Office of Attorney Regulation Counsel before you hire. Because the Vail Valley has fewer firms than the Front Range, ask how many similar cases the lawyer has handled and whether they regularly appear in Eagle County's courts. Put the fee arrangement — contingency, hourly or flat fee — in writing before work begins.
