Real Estate Litigation

Real estate litigation is the practice of handling a wide range of conflicts related to real property or the interest in real property, such as ownership concerns or acquisition issues. The majority of real estate litigation involves obstacles such as financing issues, appraisals, zoning problems, compliance with local ordinances, and closings. Having a skilled attorney to guide you through the entire process allows it to proceed more smoothly and efficiently.

Real estate law affects nearly everyone at some point in their lives, either directly or indirectly, whether they be homeowners, homebuyers or sellers, landlords or renters. Because real estate transactions are typically complex with potential for legal issues at every step, we provide experienced guidance to help you avoid common pitfalls and manage any unexpected problems that may arise.

Commercial properties matters can be complicated, so our attorneys make sure to provide the due diligence required to protect your investments and best interests.

Owners elect a governing body, such as a HOA board of directors, to oversee and enforce rules of the community. An HOA or other related entity should work with a knowledgeable legal team.
