A real estate transaction can involve a number of individuals, both with personal and professional stakes in the matter. At John W. Mikus, Attorney at Law, I represent a number of individuals in their litigation cases, including:

• Homeowners

• Farm and ranch owners

• Developers

• Contractors and subcontractors

• Loan participants

• Governmental entities

• Landlords

• Tenants

• Bondholders

• Borrowers

I am proficient in both simple and complex real estate litigation procedures. In addition to residential cases, I also represent commercial clients such as convenience stores and gasoline stations.

The Litigation Process

During real estate litigation proceedings, the dispute is handled in the court system and is decided by a judge or jury. A typical real estate lawsuit will end with a damages award being issued from one party to another.

However, it is possible to settle at any point during litigation. If all involved parties agree, a judge may sign off on the agreement before the dispute reaches a trial.
