Georgia requires an attorney at closing — we are one

Metro Atlanta closings, handled by an attorney from contract to keys.

Georgia law puts a licensed attorney at the closing table. At The Closing Firm, that attorney is the one running your file — not a processor with a lawyer's name on the door. Over 20,000 closings since 2009.

What we handle

Every kind of Georgia closing

Residential, commercial and lender work out of one Stockbridge office — so the same firm that examines title also runs the closing and disburses the file.

🏠

Residential Closings

Purchases, sales and new construction across Metro Atlanta. Clear communication with both agents, and a closing that starts on time.

Why an attorney matters here

In Georgia, the closing attorney is not optional

Georgia is one of a small number of states where a licensed attorney must conduct the real estate closing. That is not a formality — the person reviewing your title, resolving what the search turns up, and answering for the documents you sign is a lawyer.

Plenty of firms satisfy that rule with an attorney who signs off at the end. We work the other way around: Shola Oyekan has personally conducted more than 20,000 closings, and that experience is what your file gets.

  • Title problems solved, not forwarded. Liens, estate gaps and boundary issues get curative work in-house.
  • One point of contact. The same office examines title, clears it, closes and disburses.
  • Wire fraud discipline. Verbal verification on every wire, to a number we obtain independently.
  • Agents kept informed. Both sides know where the file stands without having to chase us.

Know your Georgia numbers before the table

Georgia's closing math is its own animal — transfer tax, intangible recording tax and a flat recording fee that changed in 2020. Our calculators use the current statutes, including the 62-month intangible tax rule that took effect July 1, 2025.
