As a retired trial lawyer of over 25 years, I dealt exclusively with real estate cases. Over 880 trials, arbitrations, mediations (only 3 UDs). Negligence, fraud, non-disclosure, breaches of fiduciary duty & contract. I've defended, and sued, brokers, and their insurance companies. I've represented bidders, borrowers and banks in regard to foreclosures; and both sides in loan workouts. I've worked with national chains doing state-wide store rollouts, and lease renegotiations. That followed 12+/- years as a broker actively selling/leasing property (commercial and residential) - I hold a CCIM designation, earned by doing deals. That followed 7+/- years as a title insurance company Advisory Title Officer. I researched and wrote Preliminary Reports.
