Conveyance and Real Estate Development
We deal with many aspects of law and real estate such as; Sales, purchases and other transfers, legal aspects of legal property and landlord-tenant contracts and rights, obtaining of titles for real estate properties, property development, finance, leases and banking securities.
In law, conveyancing is the transfer of a legal title of property from one person to another, or the granting of an encumbrance such as a mortgage or a lien. The term conveyancing may also be used in the context of the movement of bulk commodities or other products such as water, sewerage, electricity, or gas.
A typical conveyancing transaction contains two major landmarks: the exchange of contracts (whereby equitable title passes) and completion (whereby legal title passes). Conveyancing occurs in three stages: before contract, before completion and after completion.
A system of conveyancing is usually designed to ensure that the buyer secures title to the land together with all the rights that run with the land, and is notified of any restrictions in advance of purchase.

Commercial law (also known as business law) is the body of law that governs business and commercial transactions. It is often considered to be a branch of civil law and deals with issues of both private law and public law.
Commercial law includes within its compass such titles as principal and agent; carriage by land and sea; merchant shipping; guarantee; marine, fire, life, and accident insurance; bills of exchange and partnership.
It can also be understood to regulate corporate contracts, hiring practices, and the manufacture and sales of consumer goods.

If it is not settled by agreement between the parties it would eventually be heard and decided by a judge or jury in a court.Litigation is one way that people and companies resolve disputes arising out of an infinite variety of factual circumstances.
