PROPERTY
Property rights are viewed as sacrosanct. Owners and occupiers of property expect to enjoy their property for its intended use without interference or encroachment from others. Co-owners expect other co-owners to pay their fair share of expenses and to share profits. Renters expect their property to be maintained and safe. Rural beach communities have unique challenges. Intrusions on property rights often lead to bitter disputes.
We handle a variety of commercial and residential property matters. People come to us for consultation about their rights or obligations. Others need documents reviewed or prepared, including contracts, deeds, and leases. Others have actual or potential problems that require negotiation, resolution, or litigation.
