Plano, the largest city in Collin County, is well-known for its sprawling prairies, farms, and cattle ranches.
Since Plano is a popular destination for new families, it comes as no surprise that Plano’s real estate market continues to grow. According to data from Texas A&M University and Texas Realtors, there were more than 26,000 active real estate listings and 29,000 closed sales in the Dallas-Fort Worth metropolitan area during Q3 of 2019.
In such a large, active market, there are bound to be disputes between buyers, sellers, lenders, brokers, agents, and/or property owners. If you ever encounter a real estate dispute, you need a dedicated Plano real estate litigation attorney who will represent your case.
We assist clients with unreported construction defects, wrongful foreclosure, and other disputes. To discuss your legal options, contact us today to schedule a consultation.

Wrongful Foreclosure
Homes are one of the largest investments that anyone makes. This makes foreclosure one of the most difficult experiences to endure. Foreclosures cause lasting damage to your financial standing and deprive you and your family of a place to live.
Proving wrongful foreclosure is complex, but possible when you have an experienced Plano real estate litigation attorney working with you. If your bank does any of the following, contact a real estate attorney to discuss your options:
- Rejects or returns your mortgage payment
- Breaks your forbearance agreement
- Sends you default notices after making monthly payments on time
- Forecloses on you while in a repayment agreement
Khirallah, PLLC has prior experience representing both homeowners and lenders and is uniquely qualified to manage disputes with large mortgage servicers.
Reverse Mortgage
Mortgage brokers often target financially vulnerable senior citizens. Their goal is to get unsuspecting homeowners to take out a reverse mortgage using an aggressive sales pitch. Sometimes, brokers convince homeowners that they will never lose their home if they take out a reverse mortgage.
This is not true. Additionally, it violates the Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA), which protects consumers from false, misleading, or deceptive business practices. When a good or service does not meet the standards a seller promises, it is a DTPA violation. For example, if a homeowner is at risk of losing their home after taking out a reverse mortgage that promises to prevent foreclosure, it is a possible DTPA violation.
If you are having issues with a reverse mortgage or believe a broker manipulated you into taking out a reverse mortgage, contact Khirallah, PLLC to discuss possible solutions.
Title Insurance Claims
Title defects cause a lot of headaches and can take many forms. Prior mortgages or liens against a property, other parties claiming ownership, or boundary disputes often make up the bulk of title defects.
If you discover that there are title defects with your property and that another party disputes ownership, seek help from an experienced Plano real estate attorney to bring and defend your title insurance claim.
