Real Estate & Property Disputes

A transaction, ownership right, or property use issue went wrong. The problem now affects control of the property or significant money tied to it.

Common Situations

• buyer or seller refuses to close
• undisclosed defects discovered after purchase
• earnest money dispute
• boundary or fence encroachment
• title issue or lien appeared
• co-owner refuses to sell or cooperate

What happens next: Documents and records reviewed first to determine actual property rights and available remedies.

The Real Legal Issue

Real estate disputes combine contract law and property law. The court examines both what parties agreed to and what legal rights exist in the property itself.
