Do they have a case?
I bought my home "as is" to save money, with a home inspection and the knowledge that all repairs would be MY responsibility. I told her to get a good attorney.

**A: she does not need a good attorney, she needs a good defense attorney that has litigated seller disclosure lawsuits and prevailed.
