Details
Attorney at Law at the Law Office of John S. Unell, John Unell represents clients in Plano, Texas, in matters of consumer real estate and business real estate law. Although he is based in Plano, he also represents those throughout the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex area. Whether it is a lease, sale, purchase, dispute, litigation or negotiation, his focus is centered on real estate law so he can give his clients with real issues the real answers when it comes to real estate.
The Texas Board of Legal Specialization named Mr. Unell a board-certified attorney in commercial real estate law and resident real estate law in 1996 and he's maintained his board certifications ever since. His clients include those from the following real estate categories: sellers, commercial and residential landlords, purchasers, Deed and title holders, HOA and HOA members, commercial tenants, contractors, subcontractors and brokers.
At the University of Texas at Austin, Mr. Unell earned a Bachelor of Arts, graduating with special honors before moving on to law school at Southern Methodist University. In 1985, he graduated with his Juris Doctor and he currently has an Avvo “Superb” rating as a Top Attorney in Real Estate. D Magazine has also included him more than once on the list of Best Lawyers in Dallas.
Mr. Unell is a member of the State Bar of Texas's Real Estate, Probate and Trust Law Section. To give back to his community, he's participated on a monthly basis for the last couple of decades at the legal clinic for Legal Aid of Northwest Texas, helping those who need legal help, but are unable to afford it.
