Real Estate Law
Our firm practices in multiple areas of real estate law, including partition actions, adverse possession actions, boundary line disputes, drafting and reviewing real estate contracts, and creating business entities for holding real estate (limited liability companies, trusts, etc.).
Partition Actions may be necessary to divide property held by two or more owners into separate portions or to sell the property and distribute the proceeds when the owners cannot agree on how to divide or manage the property.
An Adverse Possession Action is a legal mechanism through which a person who occupies another’s property for a specified period of time can obtain legal rights to the property.
Boundary Line Disputes
A Boundary Line Dispute is a disagreement between adjoining property owners regarding the specific location of the dividing line between their respective properties.
A Real Estate Contract is a written agreement for the purchase and sale of real property in which the seller retains legal title to the property as security for payment of the purchase price. Legal title does not pass to the purchaser until the contract price is paid. Our firm can assist you in both drafting and reviewing Real Estate Contracts.
A Limited Liability Company (LLC) is a hybrid business entity that combines features of both partnerships and corporations, and has the ability to hold real estate. A trust, on the other hand, is a legal arrangement where one party, known as the trustee, holds and manages property or assets for the benefit of another party, the beneficiary.
