Assisting Landlords With Many Types Of Disputes

We can assist landlords and property owners of all types with many types of disputes, including:
- Evictions for nonpayment of rent
- Notice to vacate procedures
- Ejectment actions to remove unauthorized occupants and other actions
- Owner-occupied reasons for removal such as squatting
- Dealing with illegal occupants of property, nontenants or trespassers
- Loud music and other disturbances and disorderly conduct
- Damage to property
- Any violation of the terms of the lease
The Difference Between Tenants And Occupants Is Important In Ejectments
Many people confuse these two terms, but it is important to understand the distinction and understand the laws involved. A tenant is someone who pays rent. An occupant is someone who does not pay rent and is not authorized to be there. Examples of occupants are a squatter, trespasser or a previous owner in a foreclosure action.
