C.A.R. Member Legal Services Enhanced

C.A.R.’s Legal Department is proud to offer three new and improved legal services for REALTORS®. To meet our members’ high demand for legal advice, we are rolling out a new legal webinar, legal blog, and automated legal hotline system. Plus you can still reach us by calling our Legal Hotline or visiting Legal online at www.car.org.

From keeping you updated on new laws to addressing your day-to-day legal issues, our Legal Department is committed to helping you stay at the top of your game. You can now tap into our legal knowledge and prowess in the following ways:

  • C.A.R. Legal Live Webinars: Starting March 1, 2010, our legal team will conduct online webinars for members only, free of charge, on the first Monday of every month. In our first Legal Live webinar, Senior Counsel Stella Ling will give an update on short sales and other legal developments, and answer legal questions submitted by webinar participants. From the ease of your computer, you can participate in this interactive webinar, get answers to your legal questions, and find out what legal challenges other REALTORS® may be facing. Our first Legal Live will be held on March 1, 2010 from 1 to 2 p.m. Registration is simple, but space is limited, so sign up now by clicking here.
  • Updated Legal Blog: We have revamped our Legal Blog to better suit your needs. Our newly formatted blog allows you to pick the legal topic you want to kick around with others in your field. Just submit a legal question or comment, and you’ll get a response from C.A.R. veteran attorneys Neil Kalin and Sanjay Wagle. Your question or comment may even pique the interest of your peers in the REALTOR® community. Our Legal Blog will also be a good way for you to take a look at the hot topics of the day for the real estate practitioner. Access our Legal Blog now by going to http://www.car.org/legal/legalblog/.
  • Automated Legal Hotline: We recently automated the intake process for you to speak one-on-one with an attorney on our Legal Hotline. You can now bypass our customer service representatives altogether by submitting your legal question online, any time of the day or night. We will give you a priority calling status, and a C.A.R. attorney will generally contact you within one business day. You will still receive the same high level of legal guidance and insight you’ve come to expect. Try our new automated system now by visiting our website at www.car.org. Just click “Contact Us” at the bottom of the page, choose “Legal Hotline ACCESS” in the drop down menu, and fill out the short form.

C.A.R. Member Legal also provides REALTORS® with many legal articles covering a wide range of topics of interest. Two of our new legal articles available at http://qa.car.org/ are as follows:
