Partition Lawsuits and Property Dispute Litigation

As skilled residential real estate lawyers and commercial real estate lawyers, the firm represents plaintiffs and defendants in high-conflict property divisions, offering flexible fee structures including contingency fee options so clients can pursue partition without prohibitive upfront costs:
- Partition lawsuits and partition defense dividing joint property among family members, unmarried couples, or investors
- For sale by owner transactional guidance, residential sales contract drafting, and As-Is agreement reviews
- Prosecution of fraudulent deeds, deed forgery, and unauthorized quitclaim conveyances
- Foreclosure defense, strategic loan modifications, short sales, and deeds in lieu of foreclosure
- Title insurance issuance, full-service real estate closings, and quiet title lawsuits after tax deed sales
- Lady bird deeds and enhanced life estate deeds structured to bypass Florida probate administration
Evictions, Unlawful Detainer, and Contract Counsel
Property rights also encompass removing unauthorized occupants and enforcing contractual obligations. Serving as capable contract lawyers and business litigation lawyers, the firm manages unlawful detainer actions, ejectments, and landlord eviction procedures. The legal team reviews commercial leases, drafts purchase and sale contracts, and protects owners against contractor mechanics liens and predatory debt collections.
Certified Civil Mediation and Conflict Resolution

Leveraging his credentials as a certified circuit civil mediator, attorney Hachey assists disputing parties in reaching voluntary settlement agreements regarding boundary lines, title disputes, and escrow deposit conflicts.
