Real estate disputes move fast in South Florida, and the other side usually has a lawyer before you do. The Tarich Law Firm P.A. represents buyers, sellers, investors, landlords, and tenants in real estate litigation across Broward County, from our office in downtown Hollywood.
Manny Tarich has spent more than two decades litigating real estate cases in Florida's state and federal courts. He started his career as a law clerk to a federal magistrate judge in the Southern District of Florida, holds an AV Preeminent rating from Martindale-Hubbell, and holds a degree in accounting and finance from Florida State University. That combination matters in real estate cases, where the fight usually comes down to contracts, money, and who kept their promises.
Real estate cases we handle
- Purchase and sale contract disputes. A deal falls apart, a deposit is on the line, or one side refuses to close. We enforce the contract or defend you against a claim that you breached it. - Failure to disclose. Florida sellers must disclose known defects that are not readily observable. If you bought a property with hidden problems, you may have a claim. - Title and boundary disputes. Conflicting surveys, encroachments, easement fights, and quiet title actions. - Landlord-tenant litigation. Commercial and residential lease disputes, evictions where the other side has counsel, and security deposit claims. - HOA and condo association disputes. Assessment fights, selective enforcement, and board decisions that overstep the governing documents. - Real estate agent and broker disputes. Commission claims and fiduciary-duty violations.
Why local matters
Most real estate disputes in Broward County end up in the Seventeenth Judicial Circuit in Fort Lauderdale or in the federal courts. We try cases in these courtrooms regularly. We know the local judges, the local procedures, and the opposing firms. When a case involves a Hollywood property, a Broward closing, or a South Florida developer, local knowledge is not a luxury. It is the job.
How we work
Every engagement starts with a free 30-minute consultation. We read the contract or the filing, tell you honestly where you stand, and lay out the realistic paths: negotiation, mediation, or trial. You will know the cost structure before you commit to anything. Many real estate disputes settle once the other side sees you have a firm that actually goes to court. When settlement is not on the table, we are prepared to try the case.
The bottom line
Property is usually the largest asset a person or a business owns. When a dispute threatens it, the cost of waiting is real: deadlines run, deposits get forfeited, and evidence disappears. If you are in a real estate dispute in Hollywood, Fort Lauderdale, or anywhere in Broward County, call us before you respond to the other side.

Whether you are closing on your first Hollywood home or managing a portfolio of Broward commercial properties, the advice is the same: the earlier a litigator reads your contract, the fewer surprises end up in front of a judge.
