LLC/Real Estate Attorney Help

Joseph Waitkevich

Hi All, 

We started working with a real estate attorney in Houston, TX to set up an LLC for our out of state multifamily property (we are located in Massachusetts and the property is in Houston). We are in a weird spot as the attorney we used created the LLC but never sent us the final Operating Agreement (only the draft without our actual names on the signature lines).

After months of calls, emails and texts our attorney has not gotten back to us once. We are trying to transfer the property to this LLC but their office is our registered agent and we can't even reach them. I'm wondering if there are any real estate attorneys who could assist on what steps we should take to get this process finished so we can move on, ideally we would like to have a new registered agent as this attorney cannot be relied upon. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thank you

I agree with Joshua. Just file an amendment and hire out a new Registered agent that resides in Texas. Probably not worth the further chase of the original firm. @Joseph Waitkevich Would you mind sharing who this is (even in DM) so my team can steer clear of referring or future business with them? I would sure appreciate it.
