McLaughlin & Nardi’s real estate attorneys handle a wide range of issues.  For instance, we represent buyers and sellers in closings for the purchase and sale of commercial and residential property.  Property value fluctuations often lead to tax assessments which are significantly higher than the fair market value of the property, and so we pursue property tax appeals (which must be filed by April 1st each year).  We also handle property disputes, title issues and tax liens.  We help people plan so their assets can be passed down to their heirs with the minimum tax bite.  Our estate planning attorneys represent beneficiaries and executors administer estates and protect their interests.

We also help businesses in a wide range of matters.  For example, our attorneys represent companies in employee relations and dealing with their contractors, including when those relationships result in litigation.   We also represent businesses in their relations and disputes with vendors, lenders, customers, and the government.  We represent restaurants, bars and taverns on commercial matters, liquor license applications and ABC issues.  We help businesses negotiation deals, and draft the resulting contracts. 

We handle landlord/tenant issues in court and in negotiations, in both commercial and residential leases, for both landlords and tenants.  We draft leases.  We both prosecute and defend eviction suits in Landlord-Tenant Court.  We represent landlords and tenants in litigation over unpaid rent.  Our lawyers handle claims of constructive eviction or breach of the warranty of habitability, and for the wrongful withholding of security deposits and property damage.
