What the client was facing.
Buyer purchased a turn-key condo in Aldea Zama. Within 90 days the unit revealed water intrusion, a sinking foundation, and electrical code violations that the developer had concealed during walkthrough. The developer denied responsibility, citing the as-is clause in the closing protocol.
The strategy we deployed.
We filed for rescisión de contrato en juicio civil with parallel medidas cautelares to prevent the developer from selling other units in the same building before our case was heard. We commissioned a peritaje (expert engineering report) admissible at trial, demonstrating defects predated the closing.
How it ended.
Court granted full rescission, ordered the developer to refund the entire purchase price plus moving costs, peritaje fees, and accrued interest. Total recovery $245,000 USD. Judgment enforced via embargo on the developer's remaining inventory.
Your situation deserves the same rigor.
Every case is different, but the methodology holds: strategic pressure, credible escalation, recovery.
