In all landlord-tenant disputes, the first thing we will do is review your lease to ensure the provisions included are valid under state law. Ohio state law dictates that certain lease provisions are not allowed in lease agreements. We will make sure the contract in question complies with all applicable regulations and the law.
As part of our comprehensive real estate practice, we represent both parties involved in landlord tenant disputes:
- Tenants: We will make sure your landlord complies with regulations and laws when pursuing an eviction. If they failed to comply with the law, we will retrieve your security deposit. If your landlord is retaliating against you for requests you made to improve your residence, we can fight for you in a tenant remedies action.
- Landlords: Representing individual landlords and apartment complex owners, we handle eviction cases in municipal court, ensuring move-outs are scheduled and the property of the tenant is properly stored.
We also prepare lease agreements for landlords. We can help you draft a lease that complies with Ohio state law and gives you the right to evict should a tenant fail to pay rent. In the event of a tenant's failure to pay rent, we help landlords take appropriate action in order to recover full damages. There are certain notices that must be given, such as reasons for eviction, and certain timelines that must be followed.
