Toates Law Firm, LLC

Toates Law Firm, LLC is a law firm in Greenville, SC, focused on the transactional practice of law. The firm handles real estate purchases, refinances, home equity lines of credit, and construction loans, along with estate planning and business formation. Annah Toates, who earned her undergraduate degree from Furman University in 2011 and her Juris Doctor from Charleston School of Law in 2015, is most in her element at the closing table and conducts her own closings. At Charleston School of Law she was a merit scholarship recipient, a CALI Award winner, Student Bar Association President, a Pro Bono Service Award recipient, and an alumna inductee of the Forensic Club. The firm's approach centers on listening to clients and resolving matters quickly, with communication running directly from the team rather than an automated system. For refinances, HELOCs, and construction loans, the team works with lenders and notes the three-day right of rescission that generally applies when the loan is on a primary residence. Estate planning clients complete a Will Questionnaire, and the firm typically moves from questionnaire to a final version and signing appointment within the same week, sending clients home with their original Will and Healthcare Power of Attorney and recording the Durable Power of Attorney with the county of residence. Business formation work includes determining the right entity and creating the associated documents, including obtaining an EIN with the Internal Revenue Service. The office sits on E. Washington Street, a short distance from the Federal Building and U.S. Courthouse, with South Church Street and North Church Street both nearby. Christ Church Memorial Garden, Upstate Fitness, and the Peg Leg Bates public artwork are all within a few blocks. Clients and real estate professionals describe Annah Toates as thorough, responsive, and calm at the closing table, with one agent noting years of reliance on her for legal questions.
