Real Estate Litigation

West Essex Real Estate Litigation Attorney

For those times you have concerns about obligations under the contract, such as allegations of fraud, inadequate repairs or failure to make payment to a subcontractor, it is good to know that you have a real estate litigation lawyer on your side to handle your dispute efficiently and effectively.

At A. Bret Steig, Attorney at Law, located in Roseland, New Jersey, I represent clients who have become entangled in disputes related to their residential or commercial real estate purchase, sale or lease or construction project. Contact me today to find out how my experience can work for you.

Contractor Disputes

In regard to disputes that arise from new construction projects, certain procedures must be followed in the case of a first-year warranty. This generally involves an arbitration provision. Perhaps you have found that a repair covered under warranty does not meet your standards. While such cases can be difficult, you stand a better chance of achieving a satisfactory resolution with the aid of a skilled real estate litigation attorney.

My work in real estate law has given me the experiential knowledge to handle contractor and subcontractor disputes resulting from job walk-offs, the failure to pay, failure to perform work adequately, consumer fraud, and failures to obtain permits. I have effectively and successfully represented large and small contractors, subcontractors and home owners in these disputes.

Post-closing Litigation

Few things are as disappointing as the discovery of problems with your home or commercial property after you have accepted the deed and closed title. Yet the frustration and disappointment you feel can be mitigated by working with an attorney who understands the ins and outs of real estate law and can represent you in court. I have helped clients obtain damages for failures to disclose and fraud. I invite you to schedule a free initial phone consultation with me. Together we will review your situation making sure we have a strong case to pursue.
