Legal Disputes

Quiet Title Suit (or Action)
A quiet title suit is a legal action taken to settle ownership disputes and remove any clouds on the title of real property, ensuring the owner has clear and undisputed rights to the property.
Retrospective Appraisal
A retrospective appraisal estimates the value of a property at a specific point in the past, often for purposes such as tax assessments, legal disputes, or historical analysis.
Wrongful Foreclosure
Wrongful foreclosure occurs when a lender improperly or illegally forecloses on a borrower’s property. This type of foreclosure typically arises due to failure to follow correct legal procedures or agreements made between the lender and the borrower.
