Sometimes, it's less about lawsuits and more about the need for some good ol' business advice.
The saying that 'two heads are better than one' is true. And, in these economic times, when a bad decision can cost thousands - or even tens of thousands - of irreplaceable dollars, good advice makes good sense. We provide the second opinion, the sounding board, the reality check, that is more frequently needed in business today.
Since most of us have been real estate brokers (with 30+ years in grade), we know the business, and the law, of real estate.
For many clients we've developed a 'Hot Line' - a way for brokers or their office managers to call for (almost) instant legal advice. We have on-line videos of seminars we've presented on all kinds of risk management protocols. We have forms that we've prepared for use in the hot topic areas of REOs and Short Sales. And we still work on those pesky mundane things that get brokerages in trouble all the time - like trust accounts and property management. Oh, and DRE regulatory compliance.
It may not be sexy, but it's true 'added value.'
