High Stakes Real Estate Disputes
Many clients contact us when a dispute is tied to a larger financial picture, such as a failed purchase or sale, an investment property conflict, or a development project that did not unfold as promised. These matters often involve substantial dollars, dense documentation, and time-sensitive contract claims. When appropriate, we use mediation to push for a controlled resolution while protecting your leverage.
We handle Naples real estate litigation involving purchase and sale agreements, commercial lease disputes, partnership or joint venture breakdowns, and conflicts under complex loan documents, including commercial property disputes where financing terms and performance obligations collide. In certain situations, parties also allege interference with business relationships when a breakdown affects tenants, vendors, lenders, or deal counterparties.

How We Approach Real Estate Cases
Real Estate Disputes In Naples And Collier County
Naples and Collier County real estate includes primary homes, luxury waterfront property, condos, gated communities, and investment rentals, and disputes often go beyond a standard residential transaction. Common issues include condominium or HOA conflicts, coastal boundary lines, construction defects in development projects, and misrepresentations tied to properties marketed as investments.
When disputes escalate, cases may proceed in the Circuit Court of the Twentieth Judicial Circuit in and for Collier County or in private arbitration, depending on the contract. Florida rules on contracts, disclosures, association documents, and statutory rights can affect available remedies, especially when financing or investment structures are involved, and the owner lives out of state.
What To Do About Your Dispute
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of real estate disputes do you handle?
We handle real estate disputes that involve significant financial or contractual issues. These can include failed purchase and sale agreements, commercial lease conflicts, property-related partnership disputes, lender and loan-related disagreements, and investment property conflicts tied to development projects or complex financing arrangements.
How will your financial background help my property case?
Our financial litigation background helps us understand how loan terms, investment structures, and offering documents interact with property rights. This can be important when a real estate dispute arises from complex financing, private offerings, or institutional lending, because we are accustomed to reading those materials and assessing the related risks.
Can you represent me if I am in a dispute with my bank or lender?
We represent clients in disputes that involve banks, lenders, and other financial institutions. These matters may concern loan enforcement, alleged defaults, workout discussions, or disagreements about rights under complex loan documents. We draw on our experience litigating against large financial institutions when advising clients in these situations.
What should I bring to our first meeting?
For an initial meeting, it is helpful to bring key contracts, amendments, loan documents, correspondence, and any court or arbitration papers you have received. A brief written timeline of events can also be useful. These materials help us understand the situation more quickly and provide more focused guidance.
Do you offer remote or same-day consultations?
We offer both in-person and phone consultations, and we work to accommodate same-day meetings when possible. Our team provides services in English and Spanish. Timing depends on scheduling and urgency, so we encourage you to contact us as soon as you can.
How long do real estate disputes typically take in Florida?
Timelines vary based on the contract terms, the forum (court vs. arbitration), and how much discovery is required. Some disputes are resolved in weeks through negotiation, while others can take months or longer when litigation or arbitration is necessary, especially in document-heavy cases.
Do I have to go to court, or can the dispute be resolved through arbitration?
Some real estate and loan agreements require private arbitration, while others allow or require court litigation. We review the dispute resolution clause and explain the available forums and the practical tradeoffs of each option.
