Legal Question in Civil Litigation in Massachusetts

We have both a litigation practice and a real estate conveyancing practice and would be more than happy to assist you. You are very smart to seek a title search before putting your house on the market, as a surprise title issue can completely stop a deal and even force a buyer to walk. You need to gather your divorce paperwork and the paperwork relative to the injunction and related lawsuit. Your first step is to understand what restrictions, if any, exist on the sale of your home. Second step is to correct and or resolve those issues so that, lastly, you can market and sell your home in a seamless transaction that brings the most buyers and the highest offers.

Attorney Vaughn-Martell is correct that some research is in order to ascertain what is going on here. You are also correct that a standing 14-year-old "ex parte" preliminary injunction doesn't make sense. If, in fact, your information is correct that nothing has happened in that case since the preliminary injunction was imposed 14 years ago, you should be able to resolve that matter relatively easily and get the lien removed.
