In reality, you will probably end up with less money than you deserve if you don’t hire an attorney. Even after our fees, which are 25% compared to the usual 33-40%, you could still come out ahead of where you would be without an attorney helping you maximize your claim.

Landlord Rights FAQs

A lawyer can ensure you follow the correct procedures to avoid legal issues.
