    Product Description

    Attend this webcast for the unique opportunity to meet and hear from two of the court’s justices on everything you need to know to begin or expand your practice before the Land Court. This program goes beyond the basics and delivers a detailed rundown of Land Court practice with practical tips for those who want to hone their real estate litigation skills.

    The Land Court is the forum of choice for many real estate law practitioners, and this program shows you why. The panelists delve into the court’s jurisdiction, explaining its commonalities and divergences with other Trial Court departments. The program examines and explains the inner functions of the court and its unique business units, including the Recorder’s Office, the Judge’s Lobby, the Administrative Office, the Title Examination Department (tax and registered land), and the Survey Division. The panelists also cover the court’s role administering the Commonwealth’s registered land system, the tax foreclosure session, and servicemembers’ mortgage cases, as well as the much broader, judicially-managed “miscellaneous” cases, which run the gamut of topics, including: mortgage reformation; partition; zoning and subdivision appeals; the permit session; adverse possession; specific performance; easements; restrictive covenants and encumbrances; and many more.

    For practitioners looking to begin, expand, or hone their practice before the Land Court, this program provides an invaluable “deep dive” into the court’s inner workings. Particular attention is given to how practitioners can leverage the specialized experience and expertise of the court to address their clients’ real estate disputes.
