Cox Law Firm handled the closing for my home, and I couldn't have been happier with the experience. From start to finish, Mr. Cox and his team were responsive, professional, and a pleasure to work with. They made the entire closing process smooth and stress-free, took the time to answer my questions, and kept everything on track. Their pricing was also very reasonable. I highly recommend Cox Law Firm to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and trustworthy real estate attorney. read more

You really dont want to use this law firm. During a recent real estate transaction, my buyers picked this firm. To make it streamlined, I agreed to use them too. Less than 48 hours before we closed, the secretary called & said she needed to schedule my signatures, for a totally different week. She didnt explain why, just hey too bad your significant amount of money will be coming much later. When I pushed back, she called me rude, even though I never raised my voice or used any foul language. I just wasnt going to accept a different date. She told me the lawyer had gone out of town, then state, then he was out of the country & had no cell phone access. Then she lied & said he had had an emergency. I requested he call me, & finally just disconnected the call. He did call me, later that night, & told me he only took 1 vacation a year & this just so happened to be the few days he took. He had that contract date for over 3 weeks before his "impromptu" vacation. During the conversation with both he and his secretary, I had to ask them both several times to stop interrupting me as I was speaking. Both of them would just begin talking over me while I was speaking. This is extremely rude and unprofessional. Again, at no point did I raise my voice, use ugly words, or act disrespectful to them. I just asked them to do the job he was paid to do. I agreed to a closing date of Monday, 4 full days past the original, drove over (we do not live locally) & was then informed the buyer had agreed to the further closing date. This was after I stepped on a dog bone treat and slid in the front office, and had to listen to the extremely shrill barking of his dog. Yes, in the office. It barked every time someone walked by outside, in a shopping/business center, so a lot. Not the dogs fault, but there wasnt even a sign on the door warning, in case of extreme allergies, and with the way it barked & carried on, it sure wasn't a service dog. Once we entered the office, we were forced to wait 22 more minutes because he was doubled booked. Finally, we were told to step into a conference room. Mr. Cox then handed the paperwork to my husband, who was not on them! He didnt actually give me any papers, tell me any numbers, or communicate with me at all. He handed my husband the papers to give to me. He talked to my husband. The house was mine before I met my husband, so all he had to sign was the we were remarried paperwork. Finally we completed our business, and Mr. Cox did not even have the decency of telling us we were finished. I had to ask him if that was all. When we left the office, Mr. Cox did not even speak to us. There was a significant hold up with the closing, which was not the lawyers fault, but at no point did that law firm call us and tell us not to drive -again, not from that town - to get the check, even though we were scheduled to pick it up. I certainly wasnt paying him the $50 he demanded to mail it to us. My realtor let us know hours ago that the check was ready, and the law firm still hasnt called to say its ready. Finally, when we came to pick up the check, they never asked for id as required by them according to the legal documentation. Please do yourself a favor and pick someone else. I am incredibly disappointed and frustrated that I had to pay this man a large fee to complete a legal task, which wasnt done on time, and he and his staff are extremely disorganized, unprofessional, and rude, on top of the lies. Save yourself the frustration and pick a different firm, please. read more

They are the only law firm I use, wouldn't trust my business with anybody else. Very helpful every step of the way.

They made our property purchase simple and easy. We've used them twice now and we're pleased

Mr. Cox seems like nice guy but 13 months later, I find we never got title policy that we paid for. We're reselling property & trying to close and at the last minute find this out. The attorney we are using now said they contacted him 3 times regarding this matter. I would not use him again. read more

This is a warning to anyone looking for a closing attorney, do not use Richard Cox. I have had a most unpleasant experience trying to close out a very simple lot sale. The lack of communication in his office is horrible. He was unable to wire the funds twice and blamed us. Then we finally asked for a paper check to be mailed. The check came made out to a strange name. Emails are never responded to. No direction is ever given. We were dealing with him because the buyer chose him. We began to wonder if it was scam, if he really existed. We did a complete sale and never once had correspondence with him. I have never had such a bad experience. Do yourself a favor, choose another law firm. read more

We had the unfortunate experience of having the Cox Law firm as our closing attorney for the sale of our home in Wilmington. If there was a way to give negative stars I would have taken that option. Our sale closed and recorded a week ago and W.Richard Cox has yet to get the monies dispersed. The mortgage hasn't been paid off and our funds are still not in our account. I would never recommend him to anyone and please use this as a word of warning. read more
