When Commission Agreements Are Disputed

Often, the terms for the payment of broker commissions are set in a commission agreement. Disputes may unexpectedly arise over such agreements. This includes disagreements over the interpretation of contract provisions or whether all parties have fulfilled their duties. When these types of commercial disputes come up, it can be critical to have a strong ally well-versed in contract law. Our knowledgeable team is here to help.

A Key Question: Who “Caused” The Sale?

Another common source of commission disputes is the issue of whether a broker’s efforts were the procuring cause of the sale, as this generally entitles a broker to a commission. The definition of “cause” in this context can be particularly complex. Our lawyers understand these nuances and can help untangle the intricacies of the “cause” question to protect your interests.

Fighting For Your Fair Share

In real estate transactions, the commissions for a sale are often divided between multiple parties, such as the seller’s brokerage and the buyer’s agent. Disputes over who gets what share can quickly escalate. Our experienced team can help you fight for the commission percentage you deserve.
