"Hired for a settlement contract to be written out in legal manner. Ammended contract as well to add clauses that we had not written.Efficient, professional. Said the time-frame would be about 4 business days and he did deliver on that in fact worked through the weekend and mlk day. Offered one final revision as well as a call to finalize language of contract. The final document delivery was more than we expand also he went above and beyond to deliver extra documents we may need. Would highly recommend."

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.

Purchase Agreement

New York

Asked on Nov 2, 2023

Are there cancellation fees in purchase agreements?

I am currently in the process of purchasing a home and I have been presented with a purchase agreement. I was wondering if there are any cancellation fees included in the agreement, as I would like to make sure that I am aware of all the terms and potential costs associated with this purchase. I want to make sure that I am fully informed before I make a final decision.

Damien B.

Answered Nov 3, 2023

Hello! I understand you are entering into a Purchase Agreement and want to know whether there are any cancellation fees. First, you would read the agreement to see if there is any mention of termination/cancellation fees such as the loss of the down payment if the buyer attempt to terminate the contract. But, generally, the agreement is binding contract. So, if a buyer attempts to cancel the contract, it could be considered a breach of contract. In that situation, the seller can claim damages, which usually results in a loss of the down payment but also could lead to other monetary claims or a claim to attempt to force the buyer to fulfill the purchase (general called a specific performance claim). Separately, in most cases, if the buyer's ability to purchase the property is dependent on getting a secured loan, usually there would be no cancellation or damage claim and the buyer would have the right to the return of the downpayment (this should be outlined in the contract and is usually referred to as a contingency clause). I hope that helps.

Commercial Lease

California

Asked on Apr 21, 2023

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.

Answered May 24, 2023

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]]."

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

Mechanics Lien

North Carolina

Asked on Jun 10, 2022

What is the cost of putting a lien on a property for failure to pay sub contractor?

I have performed work for a contractor and the contractor is refusing to pay.

Holly T.

Answered Jun 17, 2022

The rights to this are ascertainable, but fact specific. It depends who the contract was with among other things like how long it's been since the last furnishing of labor and materials. Please review this document to get started. https://foxrothschild.gjassets.com/content/uploads/2018/12/Mechanics-Liens-in-Practice-Subcontractor-Rights-NC-w-016-4869.pdf

Agreement To Rent Or Lease

Georgia

Asked on Dec 1, 2023

what is the best method when it comes to contracts if you plan to do property listing for travelers is there a vast difference between a regular rental contract?

Currently looking into overseeing my parent's rental property and want to make sure we're doing the right process in terms of contracts when it comes to renting out a property whether it is a long-term or short-term.

Darryl S.

Answered Dec 11, 2023

Not a VAST difference, but not the same either. You should have a lawyer create an AirBNB or short term rental type agreement and you should not use a standard lease agreement. As examples, the short term agreement might cover check in and out policies, prohibit big parties, etc. and more.
