I love to learn, and I love solving problems. That's why I became a lawyer, and learned to solve legal problems for individuals and businesses and help them fix things when there's a snag. Touch base if you think I could have something to offer for you or your company. Experienced, results-oriented legal professional whose background and education have established him as a valuable resource in areas of corporate law, franchising, litigation, compliance, mortgages and banking, and more. Practice Areas Include: Corporate law, Franchising, Litigation, real estate, corporate law, civil disputes, insurance representation, corporate counseling, dispute resolution, risk management, regulatory counsel, compliance. Experience involves sophisticated as well as routine corporate structuring and transactions, simple and complex litigation, and written and oral advocacy such as depositions, mediated settlement conferences, trials, appeals, written pleadings and discovery, and case strategy and analysis. Experience managing and litigating disputes between parties and negotiating settlements across the spectrum of civil litigation, including probative discovery, successful motions practice, legal research and writing, appellate practice, and legal consultation to individuals and business entities. Further experience includes digesting and monitoring updates to the legal landscape to advise clients or departments and successfully adapt policies and procedures to assure compliance with applicable laws and regulations as well as to manage risk effectively. For those needing a skilled commercial or corporate lawyer, or for individuals whose rights need persuasive advocacy, I am a valuable resource.

My main focus is estate planning and business transactions, but I have had many practice areas throughout my career, including criminal defense and prosecution, civil litigation from neighborhood squabbles to corporate contentions. I have also worked in bankruptcy, family law, collections, employment law, and personal injury. I stand ready to assist in any area to which I feel I can be of service, but will not try to fake it if I do not know the area of law I am being asked to serve in.

Debt Collection Legal Questions and Answers

Debt Settlement Agreement

Florida

Asked on Jun 30, 2023

Can a debt settlement agreement be transferred?

I recently received an offer from a creditor to settle a debt I owe. However, due to my current financial situation, I am unable to make the payments they are asking for. I am wondering if I can transfer the debt settlement agreement to another party, who would be able to pay the debt in full.

Diane D.

Answered Aug 1, 2023

Probably not. You wil need to talk to the creditor.

Demand Letter

Maryland

Asked on Sep 17, 2023

Negotiating after a demand letter?

I recently received a demand letter from an individual who claims I owe them money. I am interested in negotiating a settlement outside of court, but am unsure of the best way to go about this. I am looking to get advice from a lawyer on how to proceed in order to reach a mutually beneficial agreement.

Kimm M.

Answered Oct 13, 2023

As a general rule, the best approach would be to either send a letter in response that proposes the settlement terms you desire, or to call the individual and negotiate by phone.

Lien

California

Asked on Feb 5, 2024

My brother paid off the mortgage loan of my parent's home in California in Jan 2021. In return the ownership was transferred to his name. However, in mid 2023 a lien was put on the property for $80K. We had no idea who filed, after talking with my father he told us that could be a judgement for him to pay back for the "zeek reward" scheme that he joined from more than 10 years ago. Is that legal for the lien to be on the property now that my father is not the owner?

The house is an investment property with renters, my father lives in one room and we do have a rental agreement with him. He manages the property since my brother and sister who are the owners of the property are living in different states.

Joseph M.

Answered Feb 6, 2024

If the judgment was against your father and not you then you should be able to fight the lien.

Debt Settlement Agreement

Florida

Asked on Jul 5, 2023

Creditor rights in debt settlement agreements?

I recently entered into a debt settlement agreement with my creditor, but I am worried that my rights may be violated during the process. I am concerned that the creditor may not abide by the terms of the agreement, or that they may not provide me with the full protections that I am entitled to under the law. I am hoping to get some clarity on my rights as a debtor in this situation so that I can protect myself.

Diane D.

Answered Jul 14, 2023

Without seeing the settlement agreement, there is no way to tell if your rights, or what you believe to be your rights, are covered. Also, if they don't abide by the contract, you can take them to court.

Debt Collection

Demand Letter

California

Asked on Sep 18, 2023

Demand letter and statute of limitations?

I recently received a demand letter from a creditor regarding an unpaid debt. The letter states that I must pay the full amount within 30 days or they will take legal action. I am concerned that the debt may be outside the statute of limitations, and I wanted to know what legal recourse I have in this situation.

Myrna L.

Answered Sep 24, 2023

If you are certain that the debt is time barred, debtor may not sue you. In California, there is generally a 4-year limit for filing a lawsuit based on a written agreement. Just make sure you don’t inadvertently restart the statute of limitations, i.e. acknowledge the debt.

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.
