Hi @Aimee Hill I'm not a lawyer, tax accountant, or a financial adviser.Some people feel that for the first deal or two, you don't need a corporation.

Hey BP Community and Happy Holidays! For those who have had experience with partnerships, do you have any attorney recommendations? I always hear that it's necessary to get everything in writing. Any tips / suggestion...

The lawyer who conducted the closing confirmed the later. 

If you live in the same area, you can also use one lawyer/notary to sign the paperwork to cut down on costs.

I already have property managers, bankers, lawyers, laborers and mentors in place, and being a broker I can search for and purchase my own properties easily enough.

I would speak to a lawyer about it though to really help clear things up.

The way that they do it (this is the layman's description, and if you want a thorough run through you should get with @Jason Marino @Olia Fogel @Richard Bechtol who are all attorneys)  but the property is owned by a land trust where a lawyer is the trustee (this creates barrier for lawsuits). 

I've never encountered a problem like this before so I contacted a lawyer.

Not sure on your question title company can answer that or if your in NY I believe you only use lawyers so its a lawyer question. 

@Wesley W.thank you for your response my lease does state all common areas must remain free from any personal belongings as well as they assume liability to any left or damage to personal property in carports and driveways.Should I call are for claims lawyers in preparation for a possible case
