I am a corporate Attorney licensed in the state of Georgia and Ghana. My professional career started in 2016 as a litigator in a private law firm in Ghana. Subsequently in 2018, I moved in house to work for the University of Ghana and this is where my corporate transactional work experience began. Since coming to the US in 2019, I have gained significant transactional experience through internships at Verizon and Tricentis (a software testing company) during law school at UGA. Since graduating from UGA law school, I have worked as a corporate transactional attorney of an AmLaw 200 firm. In that role, I helped foreign companies entering the US market to establish a presence and comply with applicable corporate laws while doing business. I also assisted customers and service providers in the software and technology industry by reviewing SaaS and similar contracts. Also, I helped energy utilities in the renewable energy space navigate regulatory and policy issues and establish contractual business relationships through contract reviews.

Mortgage Modification Agreement

Georgia

Asked on Jan 3, 2022

Do you handle Forbearance in Ga?

We currently were in the Forbearance program. My father passed away he is the only one listed on the title, however him and my mother are still listed on the loan. The bank will not let us do a loan motification since my father is deceased . They are wanting the missed payments all at once or they say we loose the house

Meghan T.

Answered Feb 4, 2022

Hello. First, I would like to say I am sorry for your loss. Regarding your question, I can provide a more general type of answer since more specifics are needed to determine the rights of you and your mother. The ability to continue with a forbearance program under these circumstances depends on the type of program applied to this loan. For example; the COVID hardship forbearance program applies to ALL federally backed and federally sponsored mortgages (HUD/ FHA, VA, USDA, Fannie Mae/ Freddie Mac). Depending on the loan type, a total of 18 months of forbearance may be applied to the loan. If the bank applied a different type of forbearance program, there may be different stipulations and mandates. Therefore, it is important to know what type of forbearance program is being applied and what the stipulations are. In any event, forbearance is an agreement by the bank to not do something (such as place the loan in default for missing a mortgage payment) for some stipulated period of time. The mere fact that your father is the only person listed on title and has passed away, may not change that agreement especially if the loan is federally backed. This is because although many loans and forbearance agreements contain a due on sale transfer provisions, federal law prohibits enforcement of these provisions for federally backed mortgages when the transfer is death related. Thus, depending on the circumstances, the bank may be prohibited from immediately accelerating (requiring "the missed payments all at once").

Agreement To Lease

Georgia

Asked on Feb 2, 2022

When it comes to subleasing an apartment or rental, do I need specific written permission from the owner, or as long as the lease agreement doesnt forbit it, am I okay to proceed?

I am in the process of potentially leasing a home in Savannah, GA for a period of 8 months. My goal is to sublease this home as an Airbnb and make a profit. The leasing agreement has no language forbidding subleasing the property, but it also doesnt have express written permission either. I'm just wondering if that means I can proceed with my plan.

Meghan T.

Answered Feb 4, 2022

This is a topic I get asked about very frequently. In Georgia, the right to sublet residential property is based on the express (written) and implied (inferred) language of the lease. Generally, if subleasing is not mentioned, then there is no restriction on subletting. In any event, you may want to at least have a discussion with your Landlord concerning what you plan to do. This can avoid lots of headaches for you and your guests later down the line.

Land Lease Agreement

Georgia

Asked on Mar 16, 2025

Can a landlord terminate a land lease agreement before the agreed-upon term expires?

I recently entered into a land lease agreement to rent a plot of land for my business, with a term of 5 years. However, the landlord has informed me that they want to terminate the lease agreement before the agreed-upon term expires. I am concerned about my rights as a tenant and whether the landlord has the legal authority to terminate the lease prematurely.

Jerome L.

Answered Apr 8, 2025

Hi there, Generally, a landlord cannot unilaterally terminate a land lease agreement before the end of the agreed-upon term—especially if the lease is for a fixed period like 5 years—unless the lease specifically allows for early termination or you, as the tenant, have violated the lease terms. Here is what you need to know: Understanding Your Rights as a Tenant: Fixed-Term Leases Are Binding Contracts: A 5-year lease creates a legally enforceable agreement. Unless the lease contains an early termination clause, the landlord is bound to honor the full term. Landlord Cannot Terminate Without Cause: If you are in full compliance—paying rent on time and following the lease terms—the landlord typically has no legal authority to terminate the lease early without breaching the agreement. Review the Lease Terms: Carefully review your lease for: Termination clauses Conditions for default or breach Notice requirements These will determine what rights the landlord may—or may not—have. You May Be Entitled to Remedies: If the landlord attempts to terminate without proper grounds, you may be able to: Enforce the lease and stay on the property Seek damages for any losses you incur due to early termination File a legal action for breach of contract, if necessary Early Termination Negotiations (Optional): In some cases, parties can agree to a mutual termination with compensation, but this is entirely voluntary and should benefit both sides. I recommend consulting a real estate attorney to review your lease and protect your rights. If you are operating a business on the property, there could be additional legal protections available to you depending on the nature of the lease and local laws. Feel free to reach out if you would like help reviewing your lease or exploring your options. Best regards, Jerome Lucas Newell, Esq. Real Estate & Business Law Attorney

Quitclaim Deed

Georgia

Asked on Sep 30, 2023

How enforceable is a quitclaim deed?

I recently inherited a piece of property from a family member and have been told that a quitclaim deed is the only way to transfer the title to my name. I am concerned about the enforceability of this document and would like to understand the potential risks and benefits associated with using a quitclaim deed. I am also curious about the legal requirements for making a quitclaim deed valid.

Bobby H.

Answered Oct 20, 2023

In theory, any writing in which an owner intends to transfer propery that is adquatedly described and delivered to the transferee is enforcable against the GRANTOR. Thus, a quitclaim deed is generally a valid deed, provided that it has been executed with the requiste formalities for purposes of recording in the public records, and adequetly describes the property. Generally, the term "quitclaim" simply signifies the the grantor does not promise to defend the grantee against any third party title claims. To be properly executed, the deed generally must be executed by the grantor in the presence of the notary, notarized, and signed by the notary and one additional witness. Without meeting these requirements, the deed may not be accepted for recordation in the property records, which also makes the deed "enforceable" against third parties, because it service as notice to those who do not have a previously recorded interest in the property of the grantee's title. In sum, a deed, including a quitclaim deed is generally enforceable against the grantor, but must be executed with the above formalities AND recorded to be "enforceable" against, or serve a notice to third parties of the new owner's interest in the property.
