LANDLORD / TENANT ISSUES

The relationship between a landlord and a tenant is highly complex body of law that can impose significant liability on a party if certain steps or formalities are not properly followed. Failing to keep a property up to certain codes, engaging in any kind of retaliation against a tenant or failing to properly evict a tenant can subject a landlord to treble damages (usually determined to be three months’ rent) and attorney’s fees and in some circumstances result in the dismissal of an eviction case. Bottom line is that both tenants and landlords have rights! A consultation with an attorney is highly recommended.

If you are a landlord who needs assistance removing a tenant or you are a tenant in need of assistance contact our office. Attorney Morse has successfully helped both landlords and tenants in the District Courts.
