Consumer Real Estate Agent Dispute Expert Witness in Tennessee
This is the case where the agent who was supposed to be on your side is the problem. For buyers and sellers with a claim against their own agent or brokerage, I give opinions on what that agent owed the client and whether they delivered it.
This page covers a focused service. For the broader editorial practice area, see Expert Witness in Tennessee.
What your own agent owed you
A consumer-side dispute looks at the agency relationship itself: how it formed, the scope of the representation, the disclosures and explanations a competent agent would have given, and how the transaction was actually handled. The recurring claims are missed inspections, undisclosed defects, deal-handling errors, dual-agency conflicts, deposit issues, and post-closing problems that trace back to the agent's conduct.
When counsel retains me
Retentions come from plaintiff counsel building the claim, from mediation or arbitration filings where the industry context matters, and from pre-designation consulting on whether the conduct actually breaches the standard. I work from the brokerage agreements, the transaction file, and the key communications, scope on a short call, and deliver the report, deposition, and testimony as the matter requires.
