REAL ESTATE CLOSINGS

Gano Legal, P.A., handles real estate closings.  I am an approved title insurance agent and I am able to provide closing services for real estate closings, refinance closings, and title searches.  My office in Auburndale contains a comfortable conference room where closings can take place.  If necessary, I am able to conduct a closing through a mobile notary for transactions too far away to make the closing in Auburndale practical.


REAL ESTATE/TITLE LITIGATION

The attorney at Gano Legal, P.A. has extensive experience in handling litigation over real estate and title issues.  Over the years I have handled cases to resolve issues such as a missing spouse on a deed or mortgage, subrogating the rights of parties in equity, clearing issues caused by fraud, forgery or divorce, code lien violations, tax certificates and deeds, and quiet title actions. 


CREDITOR'S RIGHTS

The attorney at Gano Legal, P.A. has conducted actions for creditors for 10 years.  Those actions have been foreclosures, quiet title actions, suits on the Note, deficiency actions, evictions, third party complaints, defending claims under state laws (ex: condominium and HOA assessments claims and priority, negotiable instruments, Usury, Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act, Florida Consumer Collection Practices Act), defending claims under federal laws (ex: Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Real Estate Settlement Practices Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act, Consumer Finance Protection Bureau, Truth in Lending Act, HUD compliance and guidelines), and appellate actions.  The attorney has also negotiated and drafted settlements resulting in the purchase and assignment of loans, loan modifications, forbearance agreements, short payoffs, short sales, repayment plans, consents to judgment, and Deeds in Lieu.   


FORECLOSURE DEFENSE/DEBTOR'S RIGHTS

The attorney at Gano Legal, P.A. has litigated issues involving debtors rights for 10 years.  Those areas include thousands of foreclosure actions, quiet title actions, suits on the Note and personal judgments, deficiency actions, evictions, tenants rights, third party complaints, actions under state laws (ex: condominium and HOA assessment claims, negotiable instruments, Usury, Florida Deceptive and Unfair Trade Practices Act, Florida Consumer Collection Practices Act), actions under federal law (ex: Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, Fair Credit Reporting Act, Consumer Finance Protection Bureau, Truth in Lending Act, HUD compliance and guidelines), and appellate actions.  The attorney has also negotiated and drafted settlements resulting in loan modifications, forbearance agreements, short payoffs, short sales, repayment plans, consents to judgment with a waiver of deficiency, and Deeds in Lieu.  The attorney is well versed in how to navigate creditors systems and documents to help either reach a quick resolution or to provide a defense to the action.  Let the firm go to work for you. 


CO-COUNSEL/CONSULTING

The attorney at Gano Legal, P.A. has years of experience in litigating cases and how to go about doing so.  Litigation, especially in the area of debts owed, can be complicated.  You need to be aware of the ramifications under state and federal laws for taking certain actions.  I can advise on a particular strategy or legal issue, or I can join the fight and handle aspects of the litigation that you may need assistance in.
