Our attorneys recognize that, particularly in a residential context, the purchase of one's home represents, in most cases, the largest single investment that individual has made to date. As a result, we understand that consumers, purchasers and sellers alike, often attach a greater degree of emotion to what might otherwise be considered insignificant events or problems. We understand that this, at times, more rapidly leads to litigation, regulatory complaints, and board grievances. Our attorneys are experienced in defending real estate agents in a vigorous but economic manner. Some of our attorneys have been and continue to be speakers to realtor associations on subjects such as agency law, fair housing and ethics. One of our attorneys has published a number of articles for Realtor consumption in trade journals and other print medium.
