Attorney for Partition of Real Property in New York

Do you own a property with someone else? Do you wish to sell and the other person doesn't? Or maybe the other person wants to buy you out, but for an unfairly low price.

You can't sell, you can't refinance, you can't move forward. The property just sits there.

Meanwhile, tensions rise and opportunities pass you by.

Forcing a sale through the court may be your only option. Once the judge issues an order, you will not need the other person's permission to sell.

Here's how the process works. We file a petition in court. The court appoints a referee. The referee sells the property on the market. The court will then issue another order. The new order will direct the referee how to split up the proceeds of the sale.

Once the court proceeding goes through, you don't need everyone to agree. That's the whole point. The lawsuit will end the deadlock. You will no longer be stuck in an impossible situation.

If you are trapped owning a property with someone and need to move forward, we can help you understand your rights and options.

From our first meeting, I knew I was in great hands with Albert and his associate Katrina. They handled my case with incredible skill and efficiency, even though they took it over from another firm. What impressed me most was how quickly Albert responded to my questions with honest, clear answers - no sugarcoating, just straight talk. They managed a huge workload under tight deadlines, and their fees were very reasonable for such high-quality work. Beyond his legal expertise, Albert's wit and personality made a difficult process much easier to handle. I'm deeply grateful for their hard work and would absolutely choose them again. If you need legal help in New York, you won't find better representation than Albert's firm.
