Olive 8 Blog – Lots of Talk of Walking Away

April 1st, 2009 · View Comments · By Matt

A reader in the comments points us to the Olive 8 blog where there are only three posts but two of them have a very active comment section.

One where people talk about walking away. Sounds like hiring a lawyer will cost you a retainer and then a 1/3 of the monies recovered. The two lawyers that everyone is talking about are Craig Blackmon and Steve Crane.

And the other talks about developer concessions.

Also, someone points out that the first re-sale is on the market now. No unit number though.

Sorry for the rush of Olive 8 posts but with their closing process getting going I’m sure this won’t be the last post.

    Steve Crane is handling many of these cases in Seattle with sucess as well. I was so happy when I consulted him regarding my situation. He deosn't beat around the bush and is very aggressive. He provided me with tons of options. A retainer is standard in the legal industry as lawyer's cannot ethically pay the costs on behalf of their clients. Lawyers will use the retainer to cover these costs. In my situation, he didn't even charge me anything for initial consultation that went over 2 hours.

    I would not move forward without consulting an attorney who can advise you of your legal rights. Hope this helps.
