Case Studies
$10 Million Real Estate Dispute
We helped resolve intra-family and intra-company disputes through litigation, reaching an agreement for the division of assets with major tax deferment under a 1031 exchange.
Restaurant Real Estate Transaction
We litigated a case involving non-performance of a contract to purchase multi-million dollar real estate, and our client was awarded purchas of assets and reimbursement of attorney's fees.
Commercial Property Condemnation
We represented a client in a case in which a city delayed payment, and we were able to reach a settlement for $700,000 more than was originally offered.
REAL ESTATE
For most people, real estate transactions are the largest financial deals they will ever be a part of, whether it is a residential, commercial, or investment property. Because of this, and the complicated nature of residential home sales, the State of Connecticut requires the services of a real estate lawyer when buying or selling a home. An attorney's guidance is also important in any commercial real estate deal. Whichever transaction you wish to pursue, the attorneys at the Law Offices of Peter V. Lathouris, LLC are here to help.
Residential Real Estate
The Law Offices of Peter V. Lathouris, LLC protects the rights of home sellers and home buyers. This includes a full examination of the contract agreement to ensure the terms are in your best interests and representation in negotiations over repairs or modifications to the structure or property. Our services are especially helpful if there is a lien on the property or if there are environmental concerns. We also represent homeowners who wish to pursue a short sale.
Commercial Real Estate
While the process for buying or selling a home can be complicated and filled with potential risks, these issues are often amplified in commercial real estate deals. The Law Offices of Peter V. Lathouris, LLC can help you find a buyer or seller, provide a complete examination of a business' financial history, negotiate elements of the transaction on your behalf, draft a purchase or sales agreement, and facilitate the official property transfer. Our goal is to get the deal you want.
