Real Property Litigation Support

When real estate transactions go wrong or property disputes escalate, the need for legal representation becomes urgent. Our firm offers strategic litigation support for clients involved in property-related legal conflicts. With decades of experience in transactional law, we bring a detailed understanding of contracts, title, ownership rights, and regulatory compliance into every litigation matter we support. Our support also includes offering litigants our opinions on title and forensic examinations of title history. We work hand in glove with litigation attorneys in developing support for the client’s legal action.

Resolving Contract Disputes in Real Estate Transactions

Real estate contracts are binding legal agreements, and when one side fails to perform, the other party may suffer significant financial loss, injury or damages. Our firm provides litigation support for buyers, sellers, and professionals involved in disputes over purchase and sale agreements, lease contracts, escrow instructions, and other transactional documents. We work with litigants to provide focus contract breaches and defaults for the recovery of damages or resolving disputes to avoid costly trial proceedings.

Common issues include failure to close, disputes over earnest money deposits, disagreements about inspection results, breach of warranties, and failure to deliver marketable title. In these cases, we begin by reviewing the contract terms in detail, identifying any breaches, and developing a legal position supported by case law, evidence, and procedural rules. If the dispute cannot be resolved through negotiation or mediation, we assist in preparing the matter for litigation.

We also help enforce rights under addenda, amendments, and assignment agreements. Many real estate disputes arise from unclear language or terms that were not properly documented. We clarify the legal meaning of contested clauses and build arguments that support our client’s position. For buyers, that may mean recovering a deposit or enforcing specific performance. For sellers, it may mean retaining the deposit or recovering lost market value.

If you’re facing a contract dispute, acting early is key. We support clients in preserving evidence, sending legal notices, and taking action within contractually required timelines. Our litigation support is designed to help you gain leverage early with the goal of avoiding costly litigation.

Title Claims, Boundary Disputes, and Ownership Challenges

Title defects can surface long after a transaction closes, and in some cases, years later. Whether it’s an old lien, a forged deed, or a mistaken legal description, these issues can undermine property ownership and lead to costly legal battles. Our firm provides litigation support for clients involved in title claims, quiet title actions, and disputes over property boundaries or easements. Our firm has over 25 years of experience providing legal opinions on title search and examinations.

We work with title insurers, surveyors, and underwriters to investigate and resolve adverse claims against title. If necessary, we prepare litigation strategies to remove encumbrances, challenge forged documents or correct public records. Quiet title actions are often necessary when heirs, unknown parties, or conflicting deeds cast doubt on ownership. These lawsuits require precision and legal experience to complete successfully. Quiet title actions are more commonly used when acquiring title through tax deeds. Tax deeds are usually not insurable by title insurance companies and would require a clearing procedure known as Quiet Title Declaratory Action.

Boundary disputes and encroachment issues are also common sources of litigation. Whether it’s a misplaced fence, overlapping improvements, or conflicting surveys, these conflicts require legal resolution to prevent interference with property rights. We help clients assess the evidence, understand their legal position, and pursue claims or defenses that lead to enforceable solutions.

When your title or boundaries are in question, our litigation support helps you assert your rights and protect your claims in preparation of litigation.

Real Estate Fraud and Misrepresentation Claims

Unfortunately, real estate remains a common setting for fraud, whether it’s misrepresented property conditions, false disclosures, forged signatures, or other creative scams involving title or financing, fraud is a constant concern for the industry and first in mind in our firm’s policies and procedures. When clients become victims of fraud or misrepresentation, our firm helps investigate the matter, secure evidence, and support underwriting to pursue legal action against the responsible parties.

In some cases, fraud claims intersect with criminal investigations or title insurance disputes. We help coordinate with law enforcement, insurance carriers, and regulatory agencies to ensure our clients’ interests are protected across the board. If restitution or rescission is appropriate, we pursue those remedies. If damages are the only option, we build a case that demonstrates causation and harm.

Real estate fraud can be financially devastating—but it can also be legally actionable. We’re here to help you fight back with experienced support and a clear legal strategy.
