NY Real Estate
Real Estate

Five issues to review before signing a New York purchase contract

Key points include title, financing, inspection issues, closing timing, and default provisions.

Title Review
Real Estate

Why title review is more than the address and purchase price

Liens, mortgages, unpaid charges, and public records may affect timing, cost, and closing conditions.

ACRIS
Real Estate

What NYC ACRIS records can tell buyers and sellers

Public records can help identify recorded transfers, mortgages, and documents, but they do not replace a full title review.

Estate Planning
Trusts

Questions to answer before creating a trust

Trust planning depends on assets, control needs, family structure, and long-term goals.

Trusts & Wills
Trusts

Revocable trusts and wills serve different purposes

Both documents may be part of an estate plan, but they differ in administration, privacy, and timing.

Trustee
Trusts

Choosing a trustee requires more than personal trust

A trustee should be able to manage records, communicate clearly, avoid conflicts, and carry out long-term duties.

Commercial Leases
Leases

Commonly overlooked terms in a commercial sublease

Consent, repair obligations, termination rights, and restrictions in the master lease deserve careful review.

Guarantee
Commercial Leases

Why personal guarantee provisions deserve careful review

Guarantee language may affect a business owner’s personal exposure beyond rent alone.

CAM & Repairs
Commercial Leases

Reviewing CAM charges and repair responsibilities

Definitions, audit rights, cost caps, and repair boundaries should be addressed before signing.

Disputes
Disputes

What evidence should be preserved after a business dispute

Contracts, emails, payment records, messages, photographs, and timelines often shape the next legal strategy.

Demand Letter
Disputes

A demand letter is a tool for organizing a dispute

A well-prepared letter should connect facts, legal basis, requested relief, and response deadlines.

Consultation
Client Guide

How to prepare for your first legal consultation

Bring a timeline, key documents, goals, and deadlines so counsel can identify the main issues quickly.
