The Legal Hotline allows you to submit real estate–related questions directly to NVAR’s Broker & Legal Services team of Associate Attorney Joseph J. Russo, Jr., Esq. and Director of Broker Outreach Shannon Lauterstein, who are well-versed in NVAR Standardized Forms and applicable real estate law.
In most cases, they will respond to your submission with a phone call within a few hours — and no later than one business day. Please be sure to provide an accurate phone number when submitting your request.
The Legal Hotline cannot accept complaints regarding other Realtors®, or tell you whether any Realtor® behavior is a violation of the Code of Ethics. To learn more about filing a complaint, please visit NVAR’s Ethics page.
Information on the Legal Hotline does not replace guidance from your Broker.
