I commonly handle real property, collections, and contract disputes. This includes issues involving leases, foreclosures, land disputes, condominiums, co-ops, mobile homes, HOAs, neighbor disputes, consumer/debtor protection, partition actions, contracts, credit card disputes, and collections. I also handle appellate representation in most civil matters.
Practice areas
I defend against debt collection efforts and sue companies for violating debt collection laws. Debt collection efforts may involve credit cards, medical debt, garnishment, auto loans, student loans, and deficiency judgments.

Mr. Vidoni is a knowledgeable and experienced attorney who achieves terrific results for his clients. He understands all facets of the litigation process. He is an aggressive litigator whose understanding of property law separates him from many of the attorneys handling cases in the foreclosure arena. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who needs to file a foreclosure lawsuit or to defend a foreclosure lawsuit.
