Founding Partner George Warshaw represented seller clients who fought for years over the enforceability of an offer. George handled the sales negotiations, while Attorney Bob Stetson represented them in litigation against the buyer. Bob secured an appellate victory that fundamentally changed the landscape of real estate law!

In the McCarthy v. Young case, a standard Massachusetts Association of Realtors (MAR) form, commonly used in residential real estate, led to years of litigation—ultimately reshaping how attorneys and courts will approach offer forms going forward.

This landmark case will have a lasting impact on all future real estate deals. Thanks to strong legal representation from George in the P&S negotiations and Bob on the litigation, our clients were not forced into a deal they didn’t want and were able to protect their land.

This case is a clear reminder of the critical importance of having experienced legal counsel by your side every step of the way.
