Most Tenants receive free legal counsel or, at a minimum, advice from a free attorney; it is more important than ever that Landlords have their own experienced attorney who can properly commence, maintain, and argue the case on their behalf.

NONPAYMENT CASES:

These types of cases involve the tenant’s failure to pay rent, and due to recent case law precedent, a nonpayment proceeding requires an active lease.
If your tenant is not paying the rent and you still have an active lease, then we should commence a nonpayment case immediately. The first step will be a 14-day rent demand and a 5-day notice of late rent.

Call to get started immediately.

HOLDOVER CASES:

There are numerous types of holdover proceedings, including but not limited to:

• Failure to pay rent but no active lease holdover;
• Non-renewal of lease;
• Termination of month-to-month tenancy;
• The tenant of record vacated, but other occupants;
• You gave someone permission to stay for free but now will not leave;
• Breach of lease holdover;
• Nuisance holdover;
• Illegal sublet holdover;
• Failure to renew lease holdover;
• Non-primary residence holdover and a few others

Holdover proceedings are complex and require precise documents. Call my office to determine which case must be started and how to proceed.
