Landlord Litigation

If you're a landlord and you need to sue a tenant to recover damages, or your tenant sues you, we can represent you in the litigation. In addition to eviction lawsuits, there are three common types of litigation matters we regularly handle for Arizona landlords.


Damage to Property

If a tenant damages your property beyond normal wear and tear, you have a claim against them for your damages. These cases range from situations where tenants have intentionally inflicted substantial damage as retaliation to situations where tenants destroy carpet by failing to control their pets. For More Information.


Breach of Contract

If your tenant fails to perform as required by the lease, you can sue the tenant to recover your damages. We regularly handle breach of contract claims for Arizona landlords against former tenants. For More Information.


Personal Guaranty

We regularly represent commercial landlords seeking enforcement of personal guarantees associated with commercial leases. For More Information.

Asset Protection Rules for Real Estate Investment

If you are a landlord, do you own your rental property in your name or in a limited liability company or limited partnership?  If you own rental real estate in your name, I urge you to read “How LLCs Protect Your Life Savings” and “Asset Protection Rules for Real Estate Investment.”

Unfortunately we live in a society with too many lawyers who urge people to sue at the drop of a hat.  Large judgments against real property owners happen.  See for example “Real Estate Owners Sued – a Too Common Nightmare for Property Owners” and “Arizona Jury Gives Volunteer Worker Injured in a Fall from a Ladder $5.9 Million.”

If you own your Arizona rental real estate in your name, act now to protect youself from things that can go wrong on the property.  Protect your life savings by forming an Arizona limited liability company that will be the owner and landlord of the rental property.
