I close residential and commercial real estate transactions. Myself and my paralegal work hard to ensure that every closing is properly executed. I can write title insurance policies with two companies First American and AmTrust. We are a small title company, but we are capable and efficient. I love what I do and I would love to provide closing services for you as well. I am also a licensed real estate agent. I do not actively practice real estate in the sales agent capacity because of my real estate closing practice. I remain current with policies, procedures, issues and trends. I am available to help anyone buy or sell a home or refer them to someone who will do an excellent job.

Partnership Agreement
New York
How is the partnership agreement enforced?
I am a co-owner of a small business with a partner. We recently created a partnership agreement to outline the roles and responsibilities of each partner. We have been in business for a few months now, but I am concerned that the agreement is not being consistently enforced. I am seeking legal advice on how to ensure that the partnership agreement is being adhered to.
Damien B.
Hello! I understand you want to know how to enforce a partnership agreement. When a signatory/party to a partnership agreement violates any of the terms and conditions contained within the agreement, the other signatory or signatories to the agreement could allege breach of contract, including breaching the covenant to act in good faith. Generally also, court have found that there is a fiduciary relationship among partners. So, another potential claim could be a breach of fiduciary duty. Generally, prior to filing of any lawsuit, courts want to see that there was a good faith effort to resolves issues prior to the filing of a lawsuit. So, if there is a way to resolve the issue without the need for litigation that could save time and money.

Terms of Service
Washington
Do beta testers need a special terms of service?
I am currently developing a software product and I am looking to have beta testers test out the product. I want to ensure that I have all the necessary legal documents and agreements in place before I allow any beta testers to access the product. I am wondering if beta testers need a special terms of service that is different from the standard terms of service agreement that would be given to customers when they purchase the product.
Merry K.
In both instances, you should incorporate some type of non-disclosure agreement. For beta testers, you need to address whether you are paying the beta testers in any way, shape, or form, such as a discount for the final software.

Liquor License
New York
Can a liquor license be transferred to a new owner when purchasing an existing business?
I am considering purchasing an existing restaurant that currently holds a liquor license, but I am unsure if the liquor license can be transferred to me as the new owner. I have done some research and found conflicting information, with some sources stating that liquor licenses are non-transferable and others suggesting that the transfer is possible under certain conditions. I would like to understand the legal requirements and process for transferring a liquor license to a new owner in order to make an informed decision about purchasing the business.
Damien B.
Hello. This is Damien Bosoc, Esq. I have a law office in Long Island City across from Manhattan. In New York, liquor licenses are non-transferable, meaning they are issued specifically to the current owner and premises and cannot be directly transferred to a new owner. However, there is a process that allows prospective buyers to obtain a new liquor license for the business they are purchasing. While liquor licenses in New York are not directly transferable, there is an established process for new owners to obtain a license when purchasing an existing licensed business. Following the NYSLA's requirements carefully is crucial to ensure a smooth transition and uninterrupted business operations. Feel free to reach out if you would like a consultation.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
