A: You have the right to enforce all of the terms of your listing agreement with your former client and can demand payment for the resources you provided, the photos, that are now being used by your former client and the new realtor. You can also speak with your broker concerning the conduct of the other realtor and see if he or she will support a complaint to the ADRE.
