VerifiedHello! My name is Debra (formerly known as Legal Ease). Thank you for your question. I'm reviewing it now, and will post back again shortly.
Is there any indication it is a gift?
Was there discussion about when she would pay you back?
You should hire a paralegal but not a lawyer.
You can consider paying a lawyer to send her a demand letter first though. That may scare her.
The lawyer can say you may seek an interest in the condo if you end up having to go to court.
