REVIEWING LEASES FOR YOUR PROTECTION
Both landlords and tenants can avoid potential problems by having a well-drafted contract that enumerates all rental terms. We discuss the particulars of a property and its occupancy and ensure that your lease covers all aspects of your rental agreement. We want you to feel confident that your landlord is in compliance with Virginia law and that your rights are protected should a dispute arise.
PROTECTING TENANTS’ RIGHTS TO SECURITY DEPOSITS
Virginia law specifies the usage, retention and return of security deposits. If your landlord fails to follow these strict regulations, we can help you to collect what is due to you. We first pursue the most cost-effective route of demanding payment from your landlord. If necessary, our attorneys assertively defend your rights in court.
RESOLVING AN EVICTION CRISIS
Eviction is disruptive to both the landlord and the tenant. The landlord must spend the time and money to replace tenants who fall behind on rent, and displaced families must locate a new home under traumatic circumstances. With this scenario in mind, we help mediate disputes when eviction is undesirable. If you are a tenant who unfairly faces eviction, we protect your right to remain in your home.
