Thomas H. Bergman
After practicing law for 27 years in downtown law firms (21 years as a partner/member), Tom opened the firm. A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and the University of Cincinnati College of Law, Mr. Bergman enjoys working with, and solving issues for, a broad range of clients in a variety of businesses and professions.
Licensed as a Title Agent in Ohio and accomplished in sophisticated real estate transactions, he has authored the article titled “Negotiating the Commercial Loan Commitment,” which appeared in The Practical Real Estate Lawyer and has taught Real Estate Transactions at the University of Cincinnati College of Law. He has recently co-authored a book for real estate brokers engaged in leasing titled The Brokers Manual: Vol. 1 Leasing. Admitted to the Ohio Bar, the Federal District Court for the Southern District of Ohio, and the U.S. Supreme Court, Tom successfully argued the case of McMillan v. Brune-Harpenau-Torbeck Builders, Inc. in the Ohio Supreme Court. That case held for the first time in Ohio that privity of contract is not a necessary element of a cause of action against a home builder.
Mr. Bergman lives in the Cincinnati area with his wife Kathy and is active in the community. He has begun work on the next volume of The Brokers Manual which deals with Purchase Contracts.
