New York Real Estate Litigation Attorney
Focused Representation for Real Estate Disputes
Resko Law Office PC represents buyers, sellers, owners, and investors in New York real estate litigation. We handle disputes tied to Manhattan condos near Central Park, Brooklyn brownstones in Park Slope, mixed-use buildings in Williamsburg, and suburban properties in White Plains and Mount Kisco. When a deal stalls or a tenant issue escalates, you get clear strategy, steady communication, and a path toward resolution. If your matter connects to broader real estate law, we align negotiation and filings with your transaction goals.
Title & Due Diligence
We coordinate searches, insurance, and payoff statements while flagging issues early.
Contract and Closing Disputes
Breach of contract, deposit disputes, failed financing, and missed contingencies can derail a purchase or sale. We pursue specific performance when a seller or buyer will not close, or seek damages and return of down payments when that serves your interest. Resko Law Office PC manages correspondence, notices, and court filings so deadlines are met and leverage is preserved. For clients balancing personal and investment holdings, we can coordinate with residential real estate or commercial real estate teams to keep all pieces moving.
Commercial Lease and Landlord-Tenant Issues
Disputes over build-outs, delivery conditions, rent escalations, operating expense reconciliations, assignment and sublet rights, and good-guy guaranties can threaten a location. We represent tenants and landlords in notices to cure, Yellowstone injunctions, and holdover proceedings. In retail corridors from SoHo to Downtown Brooklyn, and office spaces near Grand Central or Hudson Yards, we work to resolve conflicts quickly so operations continue.
Title, Boundary, and Lien Problems
Clouded title, boundary encroachments, mechanic’s liens, and easement disputes require careful records and fast action. We coordinate with title companies, surveyors, and lenders to clear issues before closing or to position the matter for settlement. In Westchester, local permitting and prior violations often surface late. We identify them early and press for clean resolutions.
Answers to common litigation questions
How is real estate litigation different from typical contract disputes in New York
Real estate cases often include time-of-the-essence provisions, lien and title concerns, and specific performance remedies tied to unique property.
When should a lawyer get involved in a property dispute
Early. Notices and deadlines drive leverage, and preserving email and document trails matters.
Can a lawyer help resolve a commercial lease problem without court
Yes. Clear default notices, short standstill periods, and negotiated amendments often avoid filings and protect business continuity.
How We Approach Resolution
Most clients prefer a negotiated outcome that preserves value. We assess facts and remedies, open settlement discussions when useful, and litigate in Supreme Court or Civil Court when necessary. You will receive a budget, a timeline, and regular updates. If a dispute touches corporate structure or guarantees, we coordinate with business law so entity and contract terms support your position.
Where We Work
We appear in New York County, Kings County, Bronx, Queens, and Westchester courts. Matters often arise in neighborhoods like the Upper East Side, Tribeca, Brooklyn Heights, and Scarsdale. Resko Law Office PC is based in Midtown and Mount Kisco for convenient meetings and filings.
