Hi Thomas J. Nelson, REALTOR ® CRS,ABR,PSA,RCS-D, CFSP 

 

   My encounters with Attorney Sirota have been brief, and limited to this Question Board.  But I must say, he comes across as very sharp, and very professional.  I enjoy his responses and replies to the assorted legal real estate questions that appear on this page.

 

   If I were in California, and in need of legal assistance or legal advice,  I would reach out to Brian L. Sirota, Esq.

One of the things I love most about ActiveRain is the open and honest advice we have accessible to us just for the asking!  Each member has something to share and for that I am thankful.  I have not spoken with Brian L. Sirota, Esq. but this shoutout has made a new introduction. I am not in California and have good Legal Advice here in Wisconsin.
