EVICTIONS
If you’re a tenant and you’re behind on your rental payments, you can still avoid the eviction process. Tenants do have legal rights, and most often it is not too late to avoid eviction. Our legal team can work with both tenants and landlords to negotiate payment arrangements, draft new lease agreements, and establish new terms that mutually benefit both parties. Federal grants and other emergency funds may be available to help you avoid eviction. These funds can be accessed by following the application processes, and at times this will prevent the eviction process from progressing.
REAL ESTATE LAW
Numerous documents are required throughout the sale process, and a lawyer can ensure that each avoids vague language that could otherwise leave sellers on the hook for unforeseen legal problems, especially if a home is for sale by owner. Even if a seller uses a realtor, there are brokerage agreements that can benefit from the use of an attorney.
