And do you have any referrals for attorneys that work in the Pierce County incase things get too complicated as I do it on my own?

Please helpContact the district attorney/state's attorney/whatever and institute criminal charges.

The part you are missing is if that claim were to arise why wouldn’t the plaintiffs attorney simply list the deed holder in the claim?

But in retrospect, should we have gone through with the deal and trusted our real estate attorney to execute according to the purchase contract?

This does not mean your investment is insured.We often hear comments like, "We invested with XYZ because their fund / syndication is FDIC insured," (nope no its not...).To avoid these kinds of mistakes, I strongly recommend you always have an attorney review the Private Placement Memorandum (PPM) with you.

3) Any CA attorneys out there experienced in seller finance purchases that you could recommend? 

Not an attorney or CPA so cannot help on those items.
