Mark P.
I represent a diverse mix in a vast array of specialties, including litigation, contracts, compliance, business and financial strategies, and emerging industries. Credit for this foundation of strength goes to those who taught me. Skilled professors and professionals fostered my powerful educational and professional background. Prior to law school, I earned dual Bachelor’s degrees in Business Administration & Accounting from Peru State College. I received a Master of Business Administration degree from Chadron State College. My ambitions did not stop there. While working full time as a Senior Accountant for the University of Missouri, Columbia, I achieved the lifelong goal of becoming a licensed Certified Public Accountant (CPA). Mizzo provided excellent opportunities and amazing experiences. Managing over $50M in government and private research funding was a gift. As a high ranking professional in the Department of Research, I was given priceless insight into the greatest scientific, journalistic, medical, and legal minds in the world. My passion for successful growth did not, and has not stopped. I graduated summa cum laude (top 3%) with a Doctorate in Law, emphasizing in urban, land use and environmental/toxic tort law from the University of Missouri, Kansas City. This success lead to invaluable experiences of serving as Hon. Brian C. Wimes' judicial clerk for the U.S. District Court for the W. D. of Missouri, as a staff editor/writer for UMKC Law Review, and as a litigation and transactional attorney with Lathrop GPM (fka Lathrop & Gage). My professional and personal network is expansive, with established relationships throughout the U.S. and overseas. Although I engage in legal practice all over the country, I maintain law licenses in Missouri, Kansas, and Nebraska. Federally, I hold licenses in the W.D. and E.D. of Missouri and the District of Nebraska. To offer extra value, efficiency, and options, I maintain a CPA license and am obtaining a real-estate brokerage license.
"I contacted Parachini Law after I had sent multiple unanswered information requests a third party. Mark not only send out a record request to the address specified, but also sent out additional requests at other possible business addresses to ensure the request was received. As a result, I finally received the information I was looking for. The firm was very professional to work with."

Real Estate Legal Questions and Answers

Property Sale Agreement
Kansas
What are the key elements to include in a Property Sale Agreement?

I want to ensure that all the necessary terms and conditions are properly addressed, such as the purchase price, payment terms, property condition, disclosure requirements, and any other legal obligations that should be outlined in the agreement to protect both parties involved in the transaction.
Sara S.
Hi, The components of a property sale agreement will vary from state to state. Finding an attorney licensed in your state will be critical to ensure you have all relevant documents.

Commercial Lease
Florida
How long is a typical commercial lease agreement?
I am a small business owner looking to expand my operations, and I am considering leasing a commercial space. I understand that commercial lease agreements vary in length, but I am unsure how long the typical agreement is. I would like to know this information so I can better plan for my business needs and budget.
Moss S.
The term of a commercial lease typically is no less than 3 years, and could be either 5 or 10 years. Both the Landlord and Tenant usually like long term leases.
Real Estate
Letter of Intent
New York
Can a Letter of Intent be legally binding?
I am in the process of negotiating a business deal with another party and we have exchanged Letters of Intent as a preliminary agreement. However, I am unsure if this document holds any legal weight and if it can be enforced in case of a breach. I want to understand the legal implications of a Letter of Intent and whether it can be considered a legally binding contract.
Arthur S.
Short answer is yes...provided they contain the basic elements of a binding agreement. LOI's can be short and simple or extensive and detailed. Most often, LOIs are intended to provide a road map for the drafting of more formal, comprehensive binding agreements and contain an express a provision that they are not intended to be binding upon the parties to the LOI.
Real Estate
Quitclaim Deed
Georgia
When to use a quitclaim deed?
I recently inherited a piece of property from a family member and I am looking to transfer ownership to another family member. I am not sure if a Quitclaim deed is the correct way to do this, and I am seeking legal advice to understand when to use a Quitclaim deed in this situation.
Bobby H.
Notwithstanding any statory formalities required for purposes of recording in the public records, in theory, any writing in which an owner intends to transfer propery that is adquatedly described and delivered to the transferee may function as a deed. However, in practice, you will find there are generally three broad categories of deeds mostly used to convey property in Georgia, depending on certain warranties, or the lack thereof, contained therein. These categorizes include warranty deeds, limited warranty deeds, and quitclaim deeds. In a warranty or general warranty deed, the grantor generally warrants title, and promises to defend the grantee against third party title claims that either arose, or which are based on events occuring at anytime during the grantor's ownership of property OR the ownership of any of the grantor's predecessors in title. In a limited warranty deed, a grantor generally only warrants and promises to defend the grantee against title claims which arose, or which are based on events occuring during the grantor's ownership. A quitclaim deed generally contains no warranties. Therefore, the grantee or transferee of a quitclaim deed has little to no recourse against the grantor if there is an issue with the title to the property based on the deed alone. Generally, in circumstances where there is a transfer of family property, between family members, in which no money is being exchanged, a quitclaim deed is fine. However, there may be certain tax consequences if the family member were to later resale the property. He/she may want to consult a tax professional prior to do so.

Real Estate Contract for Sale
Iowa
If a property is under contract as "seller financed" is it possible for the last buyer to enter into an option to buy contract with a new buyer?
The current owner of a property is under contract making monthly payments with the previous seller/title holder who is financing the loan. The property under contract is not occupied by the current owner. Another party is interested in buying the property, but desires to do research first, and would like to enter into a 6-12 month option to buy contract with the current owner. Is it possible for two contracts to exist on the same property?
Brad B.
Typically interests in real estate are assignable - meaning either the buyer or the seller could sell their rights under the contract to another party. An interested buyer could also enter into a contract where the second buyer have the right to buy the property even though the seller doesn't have full legal title to the property yet. Assuming there is no contractual provision restricting the assignment of rights under the contract, Buyer I and Buyer II could enter into an agreement that states that Buyer II would have the option to purchase Buyer I's interest under the contract. If Buyer II executed the option, then Buyer II would start making the payments are required by the contract. It's important to note that Buyer I would still be liable to make the payments to seller if Buyer II failed to do so. As an agreement between Buyer I and Buyer II does not change the contract between Buyer I and Seller. If the Seller is involved, the original contract could be amended or assigned to Buyer II. As an alternative, Buyer I and Buyer could enter into an agreement where upon Buyer II's executing their option to buy the real estate, Buyer II would provide funds to Buyer I, who would in turn pay Seller what is owned under the contract. Buyer I would then be obligated to convey the real estate to Buyer II. Depending on the facts there might be other alternatives or possible solutions. Each matter depends on the facts. An attorney would be able to review the transaction and make a determination of what the best course would be given the client's needs.
Quick, user friendly and one of the better ways I've come across to get ahold of lawyers willing to take new clients.
