Posted by Kate Hogan | June 20, 2019 | Hired Attorney | Contracts & Agreements

Mutual Termination of Offer to Purchase

We were under contract to purchase a residential property when the inspection came back with significant concerns. After many attempts we could not find resolution with the home owner. Jim reviewed our contract and situation and laid out our legal options. After walking through all of our options wit...h Jim we decided to request mutual termination of the sales agreement and Jim drafted and emailed a letter to the homeowners on our behalf, with a successful result. Jim impressed us with his thorough review and analysis of all the information. He explained the situation, potential risks and options to us very clearly. Throughout the whole process Jim was timely in his communication and accessible. He showed concern for our best interest and left us feeling like we were a priority,. We knew we were receiving the very best legal council and were obviously happy with the end result.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
