Client
Had a closing August 28th of last year 2024. Communication was under par, and found the professionalism lacking. As the closing was quick and fast, it always isn't a good thing. Clients should be walked through carefully when signing legal documents. Moving forward, we have had issue with the purchase of said property from day one. We reached out to the closing attorney and staff multiple times. To no avail, no one would call us back. It's now June 2025. Why couldn't someone say, we do not litigate residential property only commercial. Why would they say, we will pull the file, have the attorney review it, and we will call you back. I finally showed up in person. The attorney said he doesn't do litigation. Good grief.... You see, the sellers lied on the disclosures, which in the state of Mississippi is a no no, not like Alabama where it is a no fault or as is state. Mississippi takes this serious. Our house has been flooding since day 1. Yes say one. We've been recording/making video this whole time. As for further documentation, the city had to come in 2 years ago and fix drainage issues within the neighborhood because of drainage issues, severe drainage issues. The neighbors all down our street suffer from drainage issues. The sellers on the disclosures checked the box saying no issues in regard to flooding or drainage. Really? If we would had been given full disclosure of the flooding and drainage issue we would had asked for it to be fixed as a contingency to close on the property, or we wouldn't had purchased the home knowing of the issue. We were not given the facts, and the sellers lied. I realize this is not the closing attorneys fault, but we've been trying to seek litigation, representation, and this closing office dropped the ball with communication, or any type of help. Just silence, just ignoring this situation, and ignoring us. Now that I know they won't help, I can seek help elsewhere in regard to purchasing a home under false pretenses. I can only hope this office can learn to communicate, and to disclose proper information in the future.
