I sold my last house to a freshly graduated lawyer studying for the bar. About two months after the sale, he sued me for every single thing that we agreed to disagree on, that we gave back money in escrow and that we disclosed. All in writing in some form. I went for a summary judgment and the judge told me those were matters of fact for the jury to decide, not matters of law (like did he miss a statute of limitations) for him to decide. A very rude awakening to the judicial system in this country. Disclose everything like they say and then spend $100K in court proving that you disclosed it in escrow. In the end, I gave the piece of scum $5K to go away and $30K to my useless lawyer.
