Landlord/tenant law grows more complex each year. Most recently, state law has changed with regard to the landlord's "warranty of habitability" and tenant's rights to enforce that warranty. Eviction laws (Forcible Entry and Detainer) provide an expedited process for a landlord to recover his property. But that statutory process may be technical and all to often, an eviction proceeding is dismissed by a court based on the landlord's mis-step somewhere along the process. Examples of issues we handle are:
- Eviction Proceedings
- Commercial Leases
- Residential Leases
- Security Deposits
- Property Damage
- Breach of Warranty of Habitability
If you have a landlord/tenant issue that needs attention, attorneys Mark Fischer and Reed Morris are experienced in drafting agreements, negotiating agreements, and courtroom advocacy where necessary.

For example, if there is a problem with the title and you call an attorney three days before a scheduled closing, it may be too late for the attorney to help you.
