John B.
I am an attorney with over 13 years experience licensed in both Illinois and Indiana. I spent the early part of my career as a civil litigation attorney. Eventually, I moved into an in-house role, specifically as general counsel, to help companies avoid the pains of litigation. In doing so, I gained significant experience in executive leadership, corporate governance, risk management and cybersecurity/privacy. I bring this wealth of experience to my client engagements to not only resolve the immediate issue, but help implement lasting improvements in practices to avoid similar problems going forward.

Real Estate
Property Deed
Georgia
What happens when a mortgaged house was built on the wrong land?
We have 4 total lots, two in my fathers name and the other two in my grandfather’s name. The builder built my fathers house on my grandfather’s land. I wasn’t aware of this years ago until My father passed away. Who or How do we fix this problem?
Meghan T.
Hello. There are multiple solutions to this problem. The simplest solution would be for your grandfather (or whoever the current owner is) to deed the property over to your father's heirs. They could also switch parcels of land. Depending on how long ago the home was built, the owner of the house could potentially have a right to the property via an adverse possession. Feel free to contact me to discuss this matter in more detail. - Meghan Thomas, Esq.

Agreement To Lease
Georgia
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.
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.

Purchase And Sale Agreement
Florida
Who drafts the purchase and sale agreement?
I am in the process of purchasing a property and am in need of a Purchase and Sale Agreement. I am unclear on who typically drafts the agreement and am looking for advice from a lawyer. I understand that the agreement should be tailored to my specific needs and am looking for guidance on how to best proceed.
Linda W.
Either the seller or the buyer can prepare a purchase agreement. Like any contract, it can be a standard document that one party uses in the normal course of business or it can be the end result of back-and-forth negotiations. Most often, the buyer's real estate agent will write up and prepare the purchase agreement for a house. Note that agents (not being practicing attorneys themselves) can't create their own contracts. In Florida commonly the parties utilize the Florida Realtors/FloridaBar-ASIS-6 Rev. 10/21/2021. That is an example of a approved form.

Property Deed
Massachusetts
How much would be the attorney fees to add an owner on the grant deed of a primary residence in MA?
The parent wanted to be part owner of the property with the current registered owner.
Richard G.
Without complications, attorneys fees relative to drafting a deed granting the property from one owner to another will cost roughly $500 - $750 in Massachusetts. Usually, these matters are relatively uncomplicated, however, at times they can be more complex. The attorney should take some time with you to understand the details of your situation so as to ensure that the deed is drafted according to your needs.

Commercial Lease
California
What's the property description in a commercial lease?
I am a small business owner who is looking to lease a property for my business. I am currently reviewing a commercial lease and am trying to understand what is included in the property description in the lease. I am hoping to gain more clarity on what the property description entails and how it affects my business.
Gagandeep K.
A property description in a commercial lease has to sufficiently identify the extent and boundaries of the property being leased. For example, it can be described by a map reference or by metes and bounds, or include a description such as "that certain building on the south-westerly corner of California and Larkin Streets." The commercial lease will include defined terms such as "Building," "Property," and "Premises". The defined terms define/describe the "Property" on which the "Building" is located which has the "Premises"/"Space" that is being leased. A sample definition of is Property Description in a Commercial Lease: ""Property" means the real property on which the Building is located together with the Building and all appurtenant fixtures and personal property of Landlord used in the operation of the Building and/or the Property, and any other improvements now existing or hereafter constructed thereon[, including the parking lot, walkways, and landscaped ground as depicted on the site plan attached hereto as Exhibit [LETTER]]."

Contracts Counsel was incredibly helpful and easy to use. I submitted a project for a lawyer's help within a day I had received over 6 proposals from qualified lawyers. I submitted a bid that works best for my business and we went forward with the project.
View Trustpilot ReviewI never knew how difficult it was to obtain representation or a lawyer, and ContractsCounsel was EXACTLY the type of service I was hoping for when I was in a pinch. Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
View Trustpilot ReviewI got 5 bids within 24h of posting my project. I choose the person who provided the most detailed and relevant intro letter, highlighting their experience relevant to my project. I am very satisfied with the outcome and quality of the two agreements that were produced, they actually far exceed my expectations.
