ETHICS & ARBITRATION   Beginning in the 90s, Larry was appointed time after time by his local Board of Realtors in South Florida to carefully review and analyze  hundreds of ethics complaints about Realtors. Beginning in 2003, he was retained as an expert dozens of times, he testified under oath at several depositions and trials.  For his Board of Realtors in South Florida, Larry sat on hearing panels that adjudicated Ethics complaints against Realtors,  and he also arbitrated commission disputes when procuring cause is to be determined --  "Who earned the commission?" "Thank you for the excellent report and the quick turnaround."                                                        K.C., retaining plaintiff's attorney Real estate licensing statutes are very similar throughout the land, on purpose, so it should only take a brief reading for Larry to identify and understand the differences from state to state. Of course, Larry is familiar with Florida Statutes 475 and 61J2 regarding the duties of real estate brokers and agents towards their clients, customers, and the public.  Typically, these issues address fairness, honesty, care, and diligence in the performance of actions as well as the complex nature of agency and representation. The Realtor Code of Ethics applies uniformly to all Realtors across the country.  Larry relies upon his understanding of the Code to both defend innocent Realtors and to help prosecute Realtors who violate articles of the Code. Larry successfully petitioned the National Association of Realtors to declare that entering false information in MLS listing remarks is a violation of the Code of Ethics.
