Carl W. Heckert on Real Estate Matters That Arise During Family Law Cases

What are the procedures and documents related to real estate settlements that are important for a family law divorce case?  What various scenarios occur in family law related to real estate? These are among the topics that Gawthrop Greenwood’s family law attorney Carl W. Heckert covered during a seminar for Delaware family law judges and practitioners of the Melson-Arsht Inns of Court. Heckert has more than 30 years of real estate law experience.

The event was held January 10, 2023 at Porky Oliver Golf Club in Wilmington, where Heckert elaborated on problems with drafting stipulations, litigation regarding real estate and best practices when addressing the issues.
