Virginia Real Estate Dispute Attorneys

Virginia Real Estate Disputes

Real estate disputes are among the most frustrating. Real estate is expensive, so you can’t help but worry about recovering your investment when a dispute arises. However, while it might seem like the conflict is impossible to resolve, you have legal options.

Our Virginia law firm can handle your real estate dispute. We can begin with alternative conflict resolution, such as negotiation or arbitration. However, our attorneys will be fully prepared to escalate the case to trial if needed. We can litigate the case in front of a judge and jury to help you resolve the dispute and recover damages.

Real Estate Fraud

Real estate fraud is surprisingly common in Virginia. Far too many sellers willfully misrepresent property. Then, the buyer doesn’t realize that something is amiss until months down the road. Other times, someone might sell property that they don’t actually own. As shocking as this sounds, these transactions can go through. Then, the purchaser doesn’t have a legal right to the property.

These are just two examples of real estate fraud. Fraudsters constantly come up with new ways to defraud buyers. Fortunately, Virginia does not take real estate fraud lightly. The perpetrator can face criminal and civil charges. Our Virginia real estate dispute attorneys can handle your civil claim. You might be eligible to collect punitive and compensatory damages as a result of real estate fraud.

Real Estate Contract Disputes

Our Virginia real estate dispute attorneys often handle breach of contract disputes. Real estate transactions begin with a written contract. Both parties must adhere to the terms of the contract. If one party fails to do so, he or she is in breach of contract. You can then file a legal claim for compensation and equitable relief.

You do not have to show that the other party willfully or intentionally breached the contract. Instead, you just have to show that the defendant violated the contract, and you suffered damages as a result. PJI Law will investigate your case, gather evidence, and help you with your claim.

What If The Dispute Is With The Co-owner?

If you own the property with another person or business, you might be unsure of how to proceed if you have a dispute. Co-owner disputes can occur due to various issues, including disagreements related to maintaining or selling the property. Our Virginia real estate dispute attorneys can represent you in a claim against your co-owner. We will begin by looking over your deed and other documentation. Then, we will see what type of claim you have against the other owner.
