I absolutely love helping my clients buy their first home, sell their starters, upgrade to their next big adventure, or transition to their next phase of life. The confidence my clients have going into a transaction and through the whole process is one of the most rewarding aspects of practicing this type of law. My very first class in law school was property law, and let me tell you, this was like nothing I’d ever experienced. I remember vividly cracking open that big red book and staring at the pages not having the faintest idea what I was actually reading. Despite those initial scary moments, I grew to love property law. My obsession with real estate law was solidified when I was working in Virginia at a law firm outside DC. I ran the settlement (escrow) department and learned the ins and outs of transactions and the unique needs of the parties. My husband and I bought our first home in Virginia in 2012 and despite being an attorney, there was so much we didn’t know, especially when it came to our HOA and our mortgage. Our real estate agent was a wonderful resource for finding our home and negotiating some of the key terms, but there was something missing in the process. I’ve spent the last 10 years helping those who were in the same situation we were in better understand the process.

Employment Legal Questions and Answers

Employment Agreement

Iowa

Asked on Feb 17, 2022

My wife & I thought we had a contract from her employer to buy A dental practice after working for them for three years. We now were forced to sign a contract with the people that bought him out to continue working for them so they can get 10x EBITA when they sell shortly. Do we have a case for lost wages?

We moved from 30 miles away because we were told if we worked for 3 years we could buy it for $525,000. They now want $2.5M.

Melissa L.

Answered Feb 18, 2022

The first question is do you have a fully executed written contract? This is the first step to determine the terms and conditions such as your wages if there is a breach of contract, the dentist being able to assign the contract and if it can be modified.

Dental Associate Contract

Florida

Asked on Jun 22, 2023

Dental associate contract working hours?

I am a dental associate who is considering signing a contract with a dental practice. I am interested in understanding the working hours that are outlined in the contract, so that I can make an informed decision about the position. I want to make sure that the working hours are reasonable and that I am fully aware of my obligations before signing the contract.

Diane D.

Answered Jul 14, 2023

Without seeing the contract and without knowing exactly what you are looking for, it is impossible to answer your question.

Employment Severance Agreement

New York

Asked on Dec 13, 2022

I need advice on a severance package

I believe I was discriminated against due to disabilities. Reasonable accommodations were submitted on two separate occasions. My supervisor and HR rep mishandled the situation and I was eventually terminated. I was offered a severance in exchange for me not during them. I have documentation, communication, and recorded conversations and I'm finishing up writing out a timeline. I was offered a years salary and would like to negotiate more.

Orin K.

Answered Dec 27, 2022

Hi, it sounds like your employer may have real concerns if they've offered one year of severance. That's higher than the offers I usually see. There is always potential to negotiate something higher, but I would not be able to counsel on specifics without fully reviewing all the facts of your situation. Please feel free to contact me through the ContractsCounsel site if you would like to discuss further.

Settlement Agreement

Illinois

Asked on Dec 17, 2023

Can settlement agreements include non-monetary terms?

I recently entered into a settlement agreement with another party, and I am trying to determine whether non-monetary terms can be included in the agreement. I am concerned about potential liabilities and obligations that may arise from the agreement if non-monetary terms are included. I would like to know what legal considerations I should take into account when crafting the agreement.

Andre T.

Answered Jan 30, 2024

Settlement agreements can contain any provisions that the parties are willing to agree to provided that those provisions are not illegal or against public policy. There are also safe guards that can be included in the language of the agreement so that legally enforceable terms are undisturbed even if part of the agreement may be found to be invalid.

Noncompete Agreement

Can I get out of my noncompete agreement?

I am looking at my options.

Donya G.

Answered Mar 31, 2021

You may be able to be released from a non compete. You would have to review the language in the non compete to see the expiration.

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 Review

I 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 Review

I 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.
