- Wrongful Death
- Business DisputesMany real estate lawyers are familiar with contract negotiations and closings but have no knowledge or experience with the disputes that may arise over the course of a transaction. In this case, litigation may become necessary. Our firm has handled litigated cases involving real property contract disputes, forfeitures of down payments, adverse possession, specific performance, mortgage discharge, and foreclosures. Litigation involves motion practice, discovery, court conferences, depositions, trial preparation and presentation of the case at trial. Vital to any litigated case is preparation. Attorneys at the firm work tirelessly to prepare every case to the fullest so that the probability of success is great. Such preparation is evident in the successful outcomes of most of our cases.
