Legal Question in Civil Litigation in New Jersey

Re: Lawsuit

I would need to look at all of the paperwork to tell you whether you have to pay anyone's attorneys' fees. And it is not clear why the Coop did not simply step up and take care of the septic; you might have a claim against them.

You might have another problem that your attorney is not telling you: if you hired your attorney just to sell the coop unit, then that attorney may not want to or may not be able to handle a fight with the coop association. You may want to talk this over with your attorney. You may want to have another attorney, who DOES handle lawsuits and also handles coops and real estate, look over the documents and give you some advice.

If you would like, give me a call; I am in northern New Jersey, Passaic County, about 20 min. drive from Morristown (when 287 is not jammed up). The telephone consultation will be free. I will do what I can to help you out.

My contact information can be obtained from the links below, just click on the Attorney Profile link. Let my secretary know you found me through LawGuru.

Disclaimer: you can not rely on the advice of an attorney given over the internet. The exact facts of your situation, including facts which you have not mentioned in your question, may completely change the result for your situation.
