Landlord/tenant laws affect both the property owner and the persons renting the property. Our firm handles both commercial and residential landlord and tenant disputes, from evictions to breaches of contract. We have represented both landlords and tenants effectively.
Sometimes, there are breaches for nonpayment of rent or a landlord’s failure to properly maintain the property. In such instances, a landlord or tenant is obligated to strictly follow the procedures identified in both the lease agreement and the Florida Statutes before an action may be filed. It has been our experience that these procedures, whether contractual or statutory, can be counterintuitive in the heat of battle. We highly recommend that people seek legal counsel before possibly pursuing a course that could be detrimental to their case.
