Hardly a week goes by without someone contacting our office to discuss an intra-family transfer of real estate. Usually, a person calls and tells us what they have in mind, and if they have not already acted by themselves without our advice, we are able to keep them from making costly mistakes. In other instances, [...]
The answer will probably surprise you. Most people will not hire an attorney or do a title search when they are entering into a residential lease for a single family residence. Many tenants have their guard down and “assume” that the landlord is legitimate and has no issues. Most tenants are relieved to have found [...]
As a Seller, when you engage a realtor to list your home, or if you decide to sell it “By Owner,” you will likely be asked to fill out a “form” entitled SELLER’S PROPERTY DISCLOSURE. Many times, Sellers breeze through the disclosure statement very quickly, without putting much thought into their answers, and without paying [...]
We are frequently asked to review contracts for the sale of real estate and to advise our client (either the buyer or the seller) as to legal issues which surround the transaction.

Earlier this year, in conjunction with creating a new firm website (and following a trend among many law firms), we decided to shorten the name of the firm from “Gibbons, Neuman, Bello, Segall, Allen & Halloran, P.A.” to “Gibbons | Neuman.” This name change has prompted some questions as to whether there have been big [...]

Most title insurers will not insure title to a tax deed property without the filing of a Quiet Title Action. Assuming a proper quiet title action is completed (through all appeals), the title will be deemed [...]
Thinking about buying a house or condominium at a foreclosure? -- Be careful! In all likelihood, under both scenarios, you will be responsible for paying all charges (assessments, interest, and attorneys’ fees) that were incurred and owed by the prior owner.
