We hired Mr. Gould to represent us in our first home purchase years ago. Shortly before closing, Mr. Gould notified us the sellers wouldn't vacate after closing because their next residence wasn't ready yet. If something happened to them or the property it would be our responsibility. Our former apartment had been rented out essentially rendering us homeless. We communicated all of this to Mr. Gould, who told us we had no choice and if we backed out of the deal we'd lose our deposit. Per the seller's attorney, Stephen Holden III, unless we agreed to this, the former owners would refuse to show up to the closing and we'd lose our deposit. The seller's attorney had no problems putting the screws to us, how ethical was that? The details of this cost us an extra $600 in legal fees to Mr. Gould. Surely there must have been something Mr. Gould could have done to enforce the contract or get us out of the deal but he did neither. He violated the trust we had in him.
