"This was my first commercial lease, and the contract was lengthy and complicated, so I’m very glad I had Rich to help me through it. He was professional, patient, and took the time to explain everything clearly. Since English is my second language, that meant a lot to me. Rich was very thorough in reviewing the contract and took the time to have regular calls with me to walk through questions and details. He also communicated directly with my leasing agent when needed, which helped keep things moving and get some of the issues sorted out. I really appreciated the time and attention he gave throughout the process. His guidance made me feel much more comfortable with my first commercial lease, and I would definitely recommend him to others."

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.

Purchase and Sale Agreement

Massachusetts

Asked on Sep 7, 2023

Purchase and sale agreement and closing costs?

I am in the process of purchasing a home and I am looking at signing a Purchase and Sale Agreement. I am trying to understand what closing costs I will need to pay in order to complete the transaction. I want to make sure I am aware of all the costs associated with this purchase so that I can plan accordingly.

Moss S.

Answered Sep 22, 2023

In Massachusetts it is advisable to have an attorney represent you in negotiating a Purchase and Sale Agreement. Purchasing a home is usually the most expensive item that a person buys in their lifetime. Regarding closing costs, they are driven mostly by your lender.

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").

Purchase Agreement

Illinois

Asked on Oct 30, 2023

Are oral purchase agreements valid?

I'm in the process of purchasing a property and the seller and I have verbally agreed to the terms of the purchase. I'm concerned about the validity of the agreement and want to ensure that I am properly protected under the law. I am looking for clarification on whether an oral purchase agreement is legally binding.

Michael C.

Answered Oct 31, 2023

Your question suggests a real estate purchase. Oral contracts for the sale or transfer of land are subject to the statute of frauds in most states. This requires such agreements to be in writing and signed by the parties to be enforceable. Although there are some limited exceptions, I recommend trying to get your verbal agreement memorialized in writing as soon as possible.

Quitclaim Deed

New York

Asked on Oct 1, 2023

What protection does quitclaim deed offer?

I am the owner of a piece of property that I recently inherited from a family member. I am considering having a quitclaim deed drawn up to transfer ownership of the property to another family member. I would like to know what protection this type of deed offers to both the grantor and grantee in order to ensure that the transfer of ownership is done legally and correctly.

Damien B.

Answered Oct 24, 2023

Generally, an owner of property and the potential purchaser would use a Quitclaim Deed when there is no need to warrant or guarantee that the property is free and clear of liens. In other words, the seller does not warrant and guarantee that the property is free and clear of any and all liens. A common use would be when the property has been in the family and the transfer of the property is between family members knowing that there are no liens on the property and all taxes have been paid on the property.
