Keep your 3rd Wednesday of every month open to join us.

The month of November will include the following topics:

Real Estate Law with Heather Ijames, Reno-Sparks Lawyer Specializing in Corporate Counsel, Business Law, Real Estate Law, Trusts and Estate Drafting

Bio:

After years of litigation, Heather has seen the aftermath of unguided legal transactions when they end up in court. Now, she devotes the majority of her practice to spending that time with a client to make sure the contract or deal is right. She is a trusted business lawyer in Reno, NV that wants to prevent any client from having to spend tens of thousands of dollars on a trial, when they could just spend a few hundred dollars on the right contract.

Heather's ultimate goal is to protect your personal affairs and your business in an overly litigious world. Each client is given the full attention they deserve so that they can make the right decisions ahead of them.

Please come prepared with your questions and a notebook and pen to take some great notes from an expert in the area of Real Estate Law.

I'm here for you. I'm an investor friendly realtor here in the Reno Market. 

I'd love to chat.

Our MFH's inventory are probably less than you have there in San Jose.

I'm originally from the San Jose Area and would love to partner with someone from my original surroundings.

Thanks, 

Ginger
