Seeking a good lawyer...

[Nbadan]

Call the Chris Duel show today and he'll have Jimmy Parks take care of this for you, probably pro-bono.

[Old School Chic]

Don't do it yourself. Let someone with a legal background handle this. I suggest you try the legal clinic at St. Mary's if you cannot afford to hire an attorney.

Thank you.

Seriously I would call the law office of Jimmy Parks. If there is not someone there who does real estate law then they would be glad to refer you to someone excellent in town. He's a great source for referrals.

This is the kind of case that can draw punitive damages.

The conduct may even be criminal, drawing an indictment for fraud.

Is your aunt's first language Spanish? Are you in San Antonio? There should be plenty of bilingual attorneys around.

Indeed this might get referred to the DA.

Your welcome, SBC.

[Spurminator]

Keep us updated. I'm very interested to see how this plays out.

Good luck.

I'm no lawyer, but I see no grounds for punative damages. I see where they can enforce the contract correctly and have the lein turned over but I do not see how you would be en led to any punative damages.

[MannyIsGod]

And yes, I too am interested to see how it turns out.

Manny, you are right.

You are no lawyer.



No, just kidding... from what I've read (and batman correct me if I'm wrong) but I see no grounds for punative action either.

Sorry, but I couldn't resist that jab.

[ObiwanGinobili]

wow.
SBCGirl, I am just appalled at the BS this lady is trying to pull on your Aunt!! !

Yes! Definatly call a lawyer ( i agree w/ 2Blonde about Parks) or at least legal aid.
And do it asap before this lady can get the 1st peice of legal paperwork thru= ie. she may try to evict your Aunt for non payment.

Sorry to post his in a serious thread like this, I hope you get everything straigtned out but, I couldn't help myself.

I suggest going to see Lionel Hutz attoreny at law. He can get you out of really tight spots.

"Well, he's kind of had it in for me ever since I accidentally ran over his dog. Actually, replace "accidentally" with "repeatedly," and replace "dog" with "son."

Judge: Mr. Hutz, are you aware you're not wearing any pants?
Lionel Hutz: Uh, your Honor, can I call for one of those bad trial thingys?
Judge: You mean a mistrial?
Lionel Hutz: Yeah ... that's why you're the judge, and I am the law ... talkin' ... guy.
