Protect your rights with a Fort Lauderdale real estate disputes lawyer
If you’re involved in a Florida real estate or property dispute, then it is critical that you retain counsel who is knowledgeable about all aspects of Florida property law. Property law in Florida is generally more complicated than most other areas of law. In addition to being a product of centuries of legal development dating back to English feudalism, Florida property law is unique in that the Florida Constitution affords considerable protection for individuals’ homestead property. Moreover, legal proceedings relating to real estate are frequently governed by obscure statutes that have, over the course of decades, been interpreted (and, in some cases, re-interpreted) by Florida courts.
