Landlord-tenant relationships involve important contractual, statutory, and property rights for both owners and occupants. Peck Baxter represents landlords, property owners, management companies, businesses, and tenants in residential and commercial landlord-tenant matters, providing practical counsel designed to protect property interests and resolve disputes efficiently.

Our attorneys advise on lease interpretation and enforcement, rent and payment disputes, defaults and breaches, maintenance and repair obligations, security deposits, property damage, lease renewals and terminations, assignments and subletting, notices, possession, and other issues arising throughout the landlord-tenant relationship. We also assist property owners and managers with lease forms, policies, and practices designed to reduce risk and prevent disputes before they arise.

When disputes cannot be resolved informally, Peck Baxter represents clients in eviction and possession proceedings, breach-of-lease claims, damages actions, and other landlord-tenant litigation. Drawing on experience in real estate transactions, property management, and litigation, we work to resolve these matters efficiently while protecting our clients’ contractual and property rights.
