Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

If the Landlord Makes an Application Against the Tenant, Will the Tenant Find Out?
Yes. In most cases, if a landlord files a legal application—such as an eviction notice—the tenant will be formally notified. This typically includes being served with legal documents, giving the tenant an opportunity to respond or appear in court. Our attorneys can help you understand your rights and next steps whether you’re a landlord or a tenant.
Does a Landlord Have to Do Something About Loud Tenants?

Yes. Landlords have a legal duty to ensure that all tenants can enjoy their rental property peacefully. If one tenant is creating excessive noise that disturbs others, the landlord may be required to take action. We can help landlords handle these situations lawfully and guide tenants who are affected by disruptive neighbors.

My Ex-Landlord Held Back Part of my Security Deposit Because I Didn’t Clean it Enough. Can He Do That?

Landlords can make reasonable deductions from a security deposit for cleaning if the property is left significantly dirtier than when the tenant moved in. However, they must provide a detailed, itemized list of deductions. If you feel the charges were unfair or excessive, we can help you dispute them and potentially recover your full deposit.

Is There Any Difference Between Renting and Leasing an Apartment?

Yes. A lease typically involves a fixed-term agreement (such as 12 months), while renting may refer to a month-to-month arrangement. Leases provide more long-term stability, while renting offers flexibility. We can help review your agreement and ensure it protects your rights, whether you’re a tenant or a landlord.

What is Better for me, a Lease or a Month-to-Month Rental?

It depends on your situation. A lease offers predictability and protection from sudden rent increases during the lease term. A month-to-month rental provides flexibility if you’re unsure about long-term plans. Our attorneys can help you evaluate your needs and determine which option makes the most legal and financial sense.
