Need help with a landlord or tenant issue?
Landlord tenant laws protect the rights of both tenants and landlords. An attorney will draft leases, structure rental agreements and enforce evictions. Landlord tenant laws, which vary significantly from city to city, protect tenants, prevent discrimination and limit the rights of landlords. If a landlord has discriminated against you or mistreated you, an attorney will work to enforce your rights. Likewise if you are a landlord your attorney is an important partner to protect your property rights and rental income.
