Baltimore Attorney / Advice

Hi Everybody!

I know any advice given here is not legal advice, and I am looking for a lawyer.

That being said, I just got a notice that a property I previously owned is going into recievership due it to bring vacant.

I bought the property in 2017 through a turnkey company that has been mentioned a lot here, and basically they were scamming many people. Thankfully I was able to get them to buy back the property so I did not lose that much money. This was sold August 2018. Since February 2018 although there were violations for trash, vacant, etc being sent but I had no idea.

When the property was sold the deed was not transferred so I am still the owner in the eyes of Baltimore. I’m trying to talk with the housing department but I am located in Japan, which means there’s a very fine window of working hour overlap.

I am worried that I may be liable for any fines, or something like that. If anybody can recommend a good RE lawyer in Baltimore or any advice I would appreciate it!

Thanks for the reply!

Just an update, now the receivership case looks like it will be ok, but now the buyer has filed a complaint against myself as well as the company. I'm sure many people are aware of how horrible ABC Capital and Maverick Invest are, but now I am getting caught up it as well. 

I will try to contact the lawyer you suggested @Ben Guttman, but if anyone has any suggestions or recommendations for Real Estate lawyers that do most of their work for the defendant side please let me know.
