Real estate transactions are often complex and full of innumerable details. There are many potential problems that can arise out of buying, selling, or owning a home: breach of contract claims and earnest money disputes, misrepresentation claims based on a failure to disclose defects, and disputes with neighbors over boundaries, to name a few.
If you plan on buying or selling your home by yourself, we can assist you with this complicated legal transaction involving what may be your most valuable asset. Furthermore, we can help you structure a transaction that will allow you to minimize or avoid disputes in the future, such as conflicts that may arise out of joint ownership of property.
We serve the construction community (including contractors, subcontractors, owners, architects and engineers) in Tacoma, Kent, Des Moines, Renton, Puyallup, Federal Way, Seattle, and many other regions of Washington and California.
Applying our expertise, we handle cases involving non-payment, additional services, default terminations, design defects, differing conditions, changes, delays, suspensions of work, acceleration, labor inefficiency, bid mistakes, and protests.

A lease agreement in Washington typically contains many pages of fine print. To protect your interests as a tenant, whether residential or commercial, you should never sign a lease without having a lawyer review and explain the documents. Every line and box you initial is there for a reason. You may end up waiving important rights or committing yourself to paying rent even if you need to move out of the area for employment reasons.
