Any attorney worth their salt would cost you more than the cost to refi if you chose to litigate this roof issue and I doubt you have a slam dunk case.

@Maria Villamar Philadelphia's Civil Court Systems are available online.

Be nice, be civil yet tell her that anything left in the apartment after July 31st will be disposed of.

You cant have construction drawings unless you have a civil engineering company with you and you cant have a engineering company with you unless you have a property under contract ..So, i would put that property under contract and then start engaging an architect to get a layout/construction drawings and once that is completed .. close on the land .. 

Asset protection is insurance against litigation and complimentary to regular insurance. 

This is because caselaw on lien-priority matters can get very complicated due to the fact that lenders often litigate these matters in court.

I did however contact the Vermont Legal aid offices on two occasions and both lawyers said that we should just split it as it was not worth the cost to litigate this and the issue falls into a " grey " area of the Vermont system.

They are still litigating.

In the meantime I am positioning myself by studying online to take and get my RE license, pursuing a managerial position w/Federal Civil Service to supplement my pension.

I'm a civil engineer with a steady income, good credit and no debt.My question to this forum is, how do I go about?
