Is Money Available to Me When the DOT Files the Lawsuit?

Yes. When the DOT files the lawsuit, they are required to deposit funds with the Clerk of Court according to North Carolina Law. The amount deposited is equivalent to their purchase offer.

This money will be paid either directly to you or be applied to your loan/mortgage. Receiving this money cannot be used against you in the lawsuit. Furthermore, our attorney fee is only based on the amount that we recover over this initial deposit.
