Rebecca S.
I absolutely love helping my clients buy their first home, sell their starters, upgrade to their next big adventure, or transition to their next phase of life. The confidence my clients have going into a transaction and through the whole process is one of the most rewarding aspects of practicing this type of law. My very first class in law school was property law, and let me tell you, this was like nothing I’d ever experienced. I remember vividly cracking open that big red book and staring at the pages not having the faintest idea what I was actually reading. Despite those initial scary moments, I grew to love property law. My obsession with real estate law was solidified when I was working in Virginia at a law firm outside DC. I ran the settlement (escrow) department and learned the ins and outs of transactions and the unique needs of the parties. My husband and I bought our first home in Virginia in 2012 and despite being an attorney, there was so much we didn’t know, especially when it came to our HOA and our mortgage. Our real estate agent was a wonderful resource for finding our home and negotiating some of the key terms, but there was something missing in the process. I’ve spent the last 10 years helping those who were in the same situation we were in better understand the process.

Demand Letter
Georgia
Demand letter before litigation?
I am considering sending a demand letter to a company that I believe has wrongfully taken money from me. I want to know if a demand letter is necessary before I can pursue litigation against them. I have already sent them a letter asking for the money back, but I haven't received a response. I am now considering taking legal action and want to know if a demand letter is necessary before I do so.
Gregory F.
No, a demand letter is not necessary before filing suit, but a demand letter sent by an attorney can carry more weight and be more effective than one you send on your own. I suggest you consult with an experienced Georgia litigation attorney, such as myself, to discuss your specific situation before deciding on your next steps.

What's the termination clause in an employment contract?
I recently accepted a position at a company and they have given me an employment contract to review. I have been reading through the contract and noticed a section regarding termination. However, I am not sure what the termination clause in the contract states and I am hoping to get some clarification from a lawyer. I want to make sure that I understand my rights and obligations before signing the contract.
Curt L.
Most employment contracts contain (1) termination for cause, and/or (2) termination without cause (also known as at-will employment relationship).

Can I draft my own demand letter?
I recently received a letter from a company that I have a dispute with. The letter was a demand for payment of a certain amount of money, and I am not sure if I should respond to the demand or not. I am considering writing a demand letter of my own in response, but I am not sure if I am legally allowed to do so and what the potential consequences could be.
Bobby H.
Although engaging a lawyer is preferred, there is generally no legal prohibition against a non- lawyer making his/her own demand or respoding to a demand provided you do not threaten violence or bodily harm or use any other language which may give rise to criminal liability. However, if the amount the claim is undisputed, and depending on the type of claim, there are provisions which allow a court to award the person making the claim his/her attorneys fees in addition to the amount of underlying claim if a demand is rejected under circumstances if the case goes to court. Thus, use of an attorney is again advised but generally not legally required.

Evidence attached to a demand letter?
I recently received a demand letter from a former business partner. The letter outlines a financial settlement that they are demanding from me. I am unsure if any evidence was included in the demand letter and I would like to know if I need to provide evidence of my own in order to dispute the claim. I would like to understand what kind of evidence is necessary to accompany a demand letter and how it could potentially affect the outcome of the dispute.
Gregory F.
It is always beneficial for a demand letter to include the supporting evidence. Your response should likewise including supporting evidence in an effort to defend against the claims. I strongly suggest you consult with an experienced GA litigation attorney, such as myself, before deciding on your next steps.
