The Landlord-Tenant Act contains
specific procedural steps for landlords to follow when evicting tenants.
This requires having an understanding of the Landlord-Tenant Act and
being up-to-date on the constant changes being made.
The attorneys
at
Hanis Irvine Prothero, have the knowledge and tools to navigate
those procedures, making the process smooth, quick, and cost effective
for our clients, saving them time and money.
The Landlord-Tenant Act
guides both residential and commercial leases. When dealing
with residential leases, it is important to understand the requirements
of the Act in order to create an effective lease agreement, as well
as how to properly enforce the lease. This is particularly important
when it is necessary to evict a tenant.
Brian Hanis will help
prevent unnecessary headaches by working with landlords throughout
the process, addressing issues involving deposits, utilities, and
timely receipt of payment when creating the landlord-tenant relationship
through a lease agreement. We also provide the proper notices
and guidance through the unlawful detainer action process, including
arrangements with the Sheriff when a physical eviction is required.
In most respects, commercial leases are guided more by the terms of
the lease agreement than by statutes. It is important to understand
the impact a commercial lease may have on an individual or business
before entering into one. Our attorneys’ experience in creating and
dealing with commercial leases can help both landlords and tenants
in understanding the impact of such leases, and in foreseeing issues
that may arise in the future, helping to prevent them from occurring.
Our attorneys will evaluate the individual situation to determine
the most reasonable and efficient resolution to what is often a highly
stressful and urgent conflict. Our attorneys will personally handle
the services of all necessary and appropriate notices; will submit
in a timely manner all paperwork required by the Court; will note,
attend, and argue at any required hearings on the matter; and will
represent you fully in all stages of the process. This ensures that
our clients can keep their focus on the other tasks necessary to run
a successful business of leasing space. Please contact
Brian Hanis if
we can be of assistance to you with your landlord/tenant matter.
