Since Brad Boyd previously created and successfully operated his own real estate company and a law firm prior to joining the firm of Thomsen Nybeck, he brings a unique perspective to real estate advising.  Brad and the law firm of Thomsen Nybeck have served as counsel to various real estate brokerage companies, REALTORS, state and local associations. 

Thomsen Nybeck also represents real estate agents and brokers in matters involving E&O claims, the Department of Commerce, arbitrations, and the like.  Additionally, the Minnesota Association of Realtors Legal Hotline is staffed by Brad and other members of the Thomsen Nybeck firm.  If you are in need of legal counsel in connection with a real estate brokerage matter, there are few firms that can bring the depth of experience and knowledge that Brad and Thomsen Nybeck can offer.

Brokerage attorney or guest speaker needed? 

• Brad is actively involved in the Minnesota Association of Realtors, teaches classes and seminars to agents and brokers, and stays current on industry issues.  If your company does not have legal counsel, or you have legal counsel but would like an outside speaker for brokerage seminars or small-group education programs, please to discuss fees and availability.  Brad has previously taught classes for large groups of 100-200 or more agents, and also for small groups of agents (5-10) - whether your company is large or small, let us know how we can tailor a class or seminar to your needs.

Agency questions?

•  For newer agents and brokers, the laws on agency can be very confusing... even for experienced practitioners, it is sometimes difficult to understand the rules clearly when transactions get complicated.  Brad Boyd has taught continuing education courses on Agency and can provide clear guidance to clients with agency questions.

Purchase agreement drafting or review, or help with contingencies?

• Brad Boyd, and the firm of Thomsen Nybeck are available for "purchase agreement inspections".  This innovative program is a unique opportunity for real estate agents to get the advice they need.  Just like your client may want an inspection on the home they are about to purchase to uncover issues not initially seen, you as an agent or broker may wish to have the purchase agreement you draft or present to your client "inspected" by an attorney to get feedback or advice on whether it adequately addresses the relevant issues. 

When an individual agent or company has contracts to review, legal decisions to make, or other advising needs contact Brad Boyd and the law firm of Thomsen Nybeck.
