Request for NJ Attorney
by Matthew Worner 10 Mar '26

10 Mar '26

Hi listmates, clients live in a condominium in Mahwah, NJ. Condominium hired a roofer to install a new roof and after ripping off the existing roof, the tarps came loose and water leaked into the clients' unit causing damage to the drywall and extensive mold. Roofer took full responsibility yet refuses to pay for the needed repairs and the condominium refuses to get involved. Clients own insurer is also refusing to pay. Client's wife is set to give birth in 5 weeks and they need help! I know exactly what to do but I am not licensed in NJ. mtw(a)wornerlaw.com<mailto:mtw@wornerlaw.com>. The Law Office of Matthew T. Worner 470 Mamaroneck Avenue, Suite 409 White Plains, NY 10605 (914) 949-4239

Question Regarding NY Law and Rule 3221
by Aaron Pierce 10 Mar '26

10 Mar '26

Hi ilaw, Question: CPLR 3211 discusses an "offer to compromise". Here is the link to the statute: https://law.justia.com/codes/new-york/cvp/article-32/r3221/ Is this something used in NY Supreme Court? For example, if I represent a defendant in a civil litigation in a NY Supreme Court matter wherein the lawsuit seeks $3MM in damages, and I send an offer to compromise of $5000.00 even before discovery begins, and then, at trial the Plainitff fails to recover even that amount, does the Plaintiff then have to cover the Defendant's legal fees and court costs of the litigation from the time of the offer forward? Am I reading this correctly? Much appreciate your responses! ------------------------------------------------------ *Aaron H.

Changing Remainder interst on Life Estate Deed
by Renee Giorgini 09 Mar '26

09 Mar '26

PC transfers real property to SON1, reserving a life estate but no power of appointment. Less than a year later, PC wants SON2 to be added as a remainder on the same property. Typically, I would draft a new deed from PC and SON1 to SON1 and SON2 again reserving a life estate to PC. PC is conerned that SON1 will not cooperate in signing a new deed giving his brother half the remainder interest. If this is true, is there any way to cancel the prior deed to SON1? *Renee L.

Mass. correction deed
by linda lmtogalaw.com 09 Mar '26

I prepared and recorded a deed for my clients transferring their property in Otis MA to their revocable trust. Unfortunately, there is a typo in the deed with respect to when the trust is created. I assume I need to record a correction deed but the clerk in MA will not confirm that. She stated that an attorney affidavit may be adequate. If anyone has had any experience with correcting a MA deed, I love to hear how you resolved the problem. Thanks in advance. Linda M. Toga The Law Offices of Linda M. Toga, P.C. P.O.

Hi Listmates, Does anyone happen to have a template or sample employee commission-based compensation agreement (W-2 employee, not independent contractor) that they would be willing to share? I’m putting together an agreement with commission tiers and possible draws against future commissions. If anyone has something similar they’ve used before and wouldn’t mind sharing, it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. David Ilganayev, Esq. David Ilganayev Law, PLLC.
