Disrespectful and Predatory

This is the worst real estate attorney I've worked with in a decade of mortgage operations experience. Peter Hallam displayed a level of unprovoked rudeness and disrespect throughout the entire process that I have never seen before. He has supported a decision to withhold earnest money from our buy...er based on the seller's claims that the FHA appraiser was responsible for damages to 2 of the 6 subject to repairs on the appraisal report. Firstly, there is no evidence to suggest that the appraiser caused any damage to the property at all; and secondly, it is not the responsibility of the buyer to resolve any issues that may have been caused by the FHA appraiser. Avoid working with this attorney at all costs.

This review is baseless. This mortgage broker worked for the buyer who was not my client, as I represented the seller. The mortgage broker severely misstated the facts, including because earnest money was never withheld and because the parties' contract expressly made the buyer liable for damages caused by its inspectors/appraisers. I advanced the arguments on behalf of my client, as I'm obligated to do.
