The working relationship between landlords and tenants can be delicate, at best. Rental agreements can result in misunderstandings, disputes and lawsuits. Whether you are a landlord or commercial tenant, there are distinct legal rights, obligations and regulations that you need to follow to remain in compliance with the law. When disputes arise, it is important to secure legal counsel from an experienced lawyer.
At Jeffrey A. Vogelman and Associates, we bring more than 30 years of legal experience to every landlord-tenant case we handle. Our Alexandria lawyers represent residential and commercial landlords, as well as commercial tenants in landlord-tenant disputes of all kinds. Our attorneys take a team approach, combining our talents and resources to provide our clients with exceptional, comprehensive representation.
Representing Residential Landlords
For Virginia landlords, it is essential to maintain clean, safe and appropriate conditions on rental properties. When tenants violate the rental agreements or fail to pay rent, the results can be very serious, but the law is geared to protecting residential tenants in certain ways, so you must be careful how you proceed with evictions or other actions taken against the tenants in your properties.
We help residential landlords in a range of legal issues, including:
- Rent defaults
- Damage to the premises
- Mold issues
- Disputes involving upkeep and repair
Representing Commercial Tenants
At Jeffrey A. Vogelman and Associates, we do not limit our landlord-tenant representation to just residential landlords. In fact, commercial tenants make up a significant percentage of our landlord-tenant practice. Business owners face significant problems if there are disputes with their landlords. Eviction can result in going out of business in some situations. We provide sound legal counsel and aggressive representation for business owners in landlord-tenant disputes, including in lease negotiation.
