Real Estate

At Grodsky, Olecki & Puritsky LLP we understand that property-related issues, such as ownership or title disputes, easement, landlord-tenant, and contract/fraud claims -- especially where commercial real estate is involved -- can have a significant negative effect on your business. We are aware of the costs of litigation for our clients, so we develop effective strategies for ending cases quickly and effectively -- saving our clients’ time and resources while protecting their real estate interests.

While each case is different, our goal is always to use the strategy that gets the best possible results for you, whether that is aggressive litigation or alternative dispute resolution of your real estate matter. When a case does proceed to trial, we have the skills and experience necessary to obtain the best possible result.
