Top best Real Estate Lawyers Near me in ZIP 48103

Problem solving is what I do.  Whether you are experiencing financial or family issues, I am here to listen and provide practical advice and solutions.

For many years, I have assisted clients with business matters, real estate transactions and estate planning issues.  I have successfully litigated in all levels of the Michigan cours system and am admitted to practice before the Eastern and Western Federal District Courts in Michigan as well as the 6th Ciruit Court of Appeal.

Excellent, knowledgeable, compassionate attorneys are not born--they are made, and their achievement is recognized by their peers.  I received the Distinguished Alumni Award from the Law Review of Wayne State's Law School and the Michiganian of the Year Award from the Detroit News.  I have taught Family Law in the evening at Wayne State's Law School for 13 years now as an adjunct professor and have practiced law for 32 years in the areas of real estate, business law, family law, construction law, litigation, and appeals.  I prevailed in the now famous Baby Jessica case where the U of M Law School's Child Advocacy Clinic was my opponent and have handled almost 30 appeals (including an important case under the ADA in the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals, where I prevailed).  I obtained a jury verdict of over $1M in a First Amendment case and a significant jury verdict in a securities fraud case (both in federal court).   I have authored approximately 15 scholarly articles that were published by  the Wayne Law Review in the areas of property tax, real estate, trusts and estates, and family law.  Many more of my articles were published by the Washtenaw County Bar Association (including a series on foreclosure law).  I was a member of the Saline School Board for 12 years and served on the Saline Tax Board of Review as well as the Representative Assembly of the Bar Association. Our firm, Faupel Law, P.C., just celebrated its 25th anniversary, and before founding that firm, I worked for several very successful Detroit-area firms where I received excellent training from the best.  Besides me, our firm consists of  two associate attorneys, Sandy Musser and Dan Ferency (who both worked with area circuit court judges before joining our firm), and Tony Hart, who is an attorney experienced in sophisticated business transactions; tax appeals and tax planning; and estate planning from the simplest plan to the more exotic.  In addition to having his law degree and having worked as a CPA, Tony also has a master of laws degree in Tax.   If you are cruising the internet looking for an attorney, look no further than Faupel Law, P.C.

Born and raised in Ann Arbor, Michigan, I graduated from the University of Michigan and then served in the U.S. Army. While serving in the Army,  I also graduated from the Defense Language Institute and worked at the Army's Freedom of Information Center in Washington D.C. Later I  graduated from Detroit College of Law, now known as Michigan State University College of Law, and began working at a respected law firm which specialized in civil litigation and trial work. A short time later, I was made partner and continued to handle a variety of court cases at both the trial and appellate level, representing both plaintiffs and defendants. My areas of practice included commercial and business litigation, personal injury, wrongful death, product liability, employment law, labor negotiations and real estate. I also participated as a hearing officer for alternative dispute resolution forums and mediation hearings.. Since starting my own law firm in 2002, I have continued to provide top quality litigation and trial work for clients, along with real estate, probate and estate planning services.
