Frequently Asked Questions

LPJ Legal specializes in real estate law, business law, construction law, and related disciplines. We also handle a generous amount of litigation cases, or cases involving a judge and courtroom.

If you are suing someone, please provide:

– Any relevant communication with the other party, including but not limited to emails, text messages, and phone logs.
– Any contracts that have been drawn up between you and the other party.

If you are being sued by someone, please provide:

– The initial summons and complaint paperwork.
– Any contractual agreements relevant to the case.
– Any relevant communication with the other party, including but not limited to  emails, text messages, and phone logs.

If you receive a summons, it is important to act quickly due to the varying deadlines you may be subjected to. If you do not respond to a summons, the court may issue a default judgment against you, ruling that you lost the case because you were not there to present your side. If you have received a default judgment, contact LPJ Legal immediately so that we may use our legal resources to help you overturn it.

Contracts are important for small businesses because they provide clear expectations and better communication, ensure compliance with legal requirements, help formalize agreements, and are a sign of professionalism. Learn more HERE.

A ‘title attorney’s’ job is to draw up the paperwork necessary to finalize a real estate transaction. However, a title attorney’s job is NOT to make sure that said contracts align with the specific interests of either party. In a real estate transaction, if the only legal representation that you have is a title attorney, then there is no way to ensure that the contracts you’ve been presented with will speak to your unique needs. Hiring LPJ Legal provides you with a crucial layer of legal protection, allowing us to skillfully review, dispute, or modify the contracts that the title attorney has presented you with.
