Contracts I have reviewed include but not limited to purchase orders, commercial and construction contracts, equipment rental agreements, non-disclosure, confidentiality, vendor agreements, service agreements, site access agreements, international agreements, request for proposals (RFP), bids and government contracts. These experiences have enabled me to master the ability to work independently and expeditiously to identify and assess issues and provide legally sound recommendations, consistent with good business practices. I have led teams (sales, insurance and management) to successfully negotiate contract terms with customers. Effective Communicator and Negotiator. I am a people person, and for the past 13 years, I have acquired excellent oral and written communication skills that enable me to interact and negotiate effectively with stakeholders at all levels.

Property Deed

South Dakota

Asked on Feb 2, 2022

We want to transfer land to our children but we want to still get the income and pay taxes until we die what kind of deed is this

We have three children the attorney made it a warranty deed to transfer our land to them but we still want to have the rent and pay the taxes what kind of deed should this be

T. Phillip B.

Answered Feb 18, 2022

Depending on the land and business, I'd consider making an LLC for asset protection reasons. Then you could have a trust as the member. If you need to get the property out of your estate, this will dictate what to do with the trust.

Quitclaim deed

My wife, my father and myself are co-owners of a property (condo) in Lauderdale Lakes Florida. We would like to make a quitclaim deed to transfer full ownership to my wife and myself.

T. Phillip B.

Answered Feb 5, 2022

That should work assuming your father isn't responsible on any note associated with the property. If there is a mortgage and note, you'll want to talk with the lender first.

Lien

Virginia

Asked on Jun 24, 2022

Lien on house

Trying to sell home. My title company having issue settling the debt. Title company contact loan to payoff, but no record of my property was found. Only past owner current home is on the loan. Quit Deed was done 2012. In 2015 past owner loan was passed to a different company who record in Florida my parcel number. So basically I can't pay loan off because my home is not attached to her loan. I still can't clear title because lien was recorded 2015 in Fl court house, but The past owner was no longer on deed. Looking to hire a lawyer to clear title, so I can sell my home.

Michael T.

Answered Jul 19, 2022

This sounds complicated enough that you need a lawyer to get involved. Do you have a title insurance "owner's policy"? If so, that might get you a free lawyer (I can't tell from the facts you presented whether that will work). Also, you've tagged this question as a Virginia question, but you mention the lien being recorded in Florida. You need an experienced lawyer in the jurisdiction in which the property is located. If the house is in Virginia, you need a Virginia lawyer; if in Florida, you need a Florida lawyer. If it's a lien on Virginia property from a Florida judgment, then you need a Virginia lawyer, because that's where the property is located.

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").

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.
