Aggressive Representation for Real Estate Contract Disputes

One of the most common types of real estate disputes involves the alleged breach of a sales contract. Most contracts and agreements that govern real estate matters must be in writing and properly executed in order to be enforceable. A breach of contract occurs when one party violates the established terms or fails to live up to contractual obligations without proper justification.

If the seller of real property does not comply with their obligations, we are prepared to help buyers find an appropriate resolution. A buyer may be able to recover financial damages, terminate the contract, obtain a refund of any deposits and incurred expenses, or secure compliant performance of the original contract. If the buyer is the party who breached the contract, our attorneys can help sellers protect their interests as well. Sellers may be entitled to damages, forfeiture of the contract, or other considerations.

Lawyers Who Get Results

At Rolewick & Gutzke, P.C., we develop close working relationships with our clients, allowing us to better understand their needs, values, and goals. We realize that an ongoing real estate dispute can be a major distraction, both personally and professionally. Our attorneys will work hard to find a resolution to a dispute quickly by utilizing dispute resolution methods such as direct negotiation, mediation, and arbitration. Such methods, however, are not always appropriate, and litigation may become necessary. The skilled litigators at our firm are fully prepared to advocate on our clients' behalf in the courtroom as well.
