Practice Areas: Real Estate, Construction & Title Insurance

Giffen & Kaminski has significant experience handling title disputes for title insurers, title agencies, and the financial institutions which purchase title insurance. We routinely handle issues such as reformation actions, quiet title actions, priority issues, protecting title in bankruptcy, recoupment, defalcations, equitable subordination, fraud and “flip” issues, the formalities of mortgage and deed executions, boundary and survey disputes, and class actions related to closing issues and notifications.

Giffen & Kaminski defends and prosecutes cases involving real estate, including latent defects in property, mechanic liens, eminent domain, foreclosure, easements and adverse possession. We have also been involved in many disputes between landlords and commercial tenants, including eviction and forcible entry and detainer cases. We also prosecute and defend contractors, owners, surveyors, engineers, architects, and materialmen in construction cases.
