“My landlord wants me out”
Evictions, deposits, repairs and lease disputes, for tenants and for owners of one to ten homes.
$350
Two to eight weeks
When to call
When a notice arrives, from a landlord or from a court. When a deposit has not come back. When repairs have been promised for months. If you have a hearing date, tell me at the start of the call and I will make time that day.
What I do first
I read the lease and the notice together. A good share of notices are defective, and many deposit disputes are settled by a single letter that cites the right statute and the right dates.
For owners
I act for owners of one to ten homes: leases that hold up, notices done correctly the first time, and what to do when rent stops.
Tell me what happened.
I will say where you stand.
The first call is free and takes about twenty minutes. Monday to Friday, 8.30 am to 6 pm. If there is a deadline on a letter, say so first.
