Protection for Landlords
At the Law Office of Daniel M. Copeland, we help landlords embarking on careers as rental property owners. They want a detailed lease that favors them and protects their rights. If a tenant refuses to pay rent, a landlord will want that lease to help them take possession of the premises. However, if a tenant agrees to a workout agreement when behind on rent, the landlord can maintain a positive cash flow.
Advocacy for Tenants
Tenants face their own problems when landlords do not abide by a lease. Property may be neglected or not maintained at all. We educate tenants on their options that include withholding rent, providing a seven-day notice to cure the problem, or break the lease and suing for damages.
Helping Both Sides in Foreclosure Matters
In challenging economic times, landlords can fall behind on their mortgage payments, putting their rental property at risk of foreclosure. Tenants have rights to use the leased property undisturbed and should immediately contact an attorney. Landlords also have options, including an attorney to provide a strong and aggressive foreclosure defense.
