Then get a court order instead of playing games with the banks.

CT, like NY, is one of those states that require lawyers in a real estate transaction. I've never been able to figure out if that's tradition or law. In AZ, the realtors handle the negotiations and contracts and the title companies do the title search and complete the transaction. Lawyers are...

Terminated? As in: "All advances not satisfied will be deducted in full when employment with (company) has been terminated." Which means that you are consenting to have the company deduct from your final paycheck any amounts that you owe the company for any advances of money previously made...

Then the bank should be complying with those letters by allowing you access to the account. Who are you dealing with at the bank? If it's customer service people at a branch, that may be why you are having trouble. Most banks departments that handle estate issues and are more knowledgeable than...

The following is from the Real Estate Purchase Contract provided by the CT Bar: https://www.ctbar.org/docs/default-source/section---real-property-(public-documents/model_residential_contract_j.pdf?sfvrsn=76cfa95_2 There is also this: I think that the seller brought the problem upon himself...

Not clear whether your brother is still alive or not. If not, you will have to go to the NY Surrogate and get "letters testimentary" which will give you the court's authorization to represent/administer the estate. With those papers you'll be able to get access to his accounts. If he is still...

Mortgage loan contracts typically include the right to sell or assign the mortgage, without needing the consent of the borrower. Every mortgage loan that I've ever had included that right. Read your mortgage loan contract. It's probably in there.

Collection agencies include all their fees and costs and accrued interest. Why shouldn't you? This is what you've been waiting for. You have the debtor over a barrel now that he wants to sell. Study up on your state laws on renewing recorded judgments. If he doesn't sell now, he will someday...

Your opponent has the right to question you about your testimony. If you don't show up, you lose.
