St. Louis Real Estate Lawyer

Real estate law is complex. Uninformed decisions made now may come back to haunt you.


I'm experienced St. Louis real estate lawyer Jennifer A. Coke of The Coke Law Firm in Missouri. Contact me for quality, cost-effective legal representation and responsive service regarding the following:


Landlord / Tenant law

I am available to assist Landlords in filing Rent and Possession or Unlawful Detainer actions to remove problem tenants from their properties. I assist Landlords in following legal guidelines regarding tenant security deposits. I also assist tenants in instances where their Landlords do not follow the requirements of the law regarding the return of their security deposits.

Since I am a former owner of a property management company, I use that experience to help clients write leases, collect delinquent rent, and send demand letters. I can assist with collections of post-judgment money through garnishment of bank accounts or wages.

Buying residential or investment property

I represent home buyers and property investors purchasing residential property. I review contracts to ensure that all terms are clear and fair and that your best interest is being protected. I can assist with price negotiations, review closing statements and prepare necessary closing documents, such as deeds, promissory notes and deeds of trust. My experience as a real estate investor makes me very familiar with lease to own situations and rehab investment situations, as well. You may actually save money in a purchase transaction hiring me, than making the purchase without any attorney or agent at all.

My previous experience as a real estate investor and a property manager helped to develop my knowledge base to better serve my clients. I have access to a network of professionals, including mortgage brokers, lenders, developers and financial planners, to whom I can refer you for specialized advice as your needs dictate. I am also happy to work with your current advisors to ensure your real estate transaction is complete and serves all of your needs.

For sale by owner (FSBO’s)

I represent real estate investors selling investment properties, and home owners selling their own homes. I represent you more cost-effectively than can a real estate agent because my charges are based on a flat fee for my services. I take no percentage of the sale price. Additionally, I can assist you with locating a representative to list your property on the multi-listing service (MLS) who does not charge you for advertising or a percentage of the sale.
