Crucial Legal Guidance For Landlords

The process of eviction is a series of steps that must be strictly followed by a landlord to recover possession of a rental property. Essential to this process is the landlord’s actions before the filing of the eviction which should be well planned and measured. If you are a landlord and are not familiar with the eviction process or possibly you have encountered a complex situation, our office recommends that you schedule a consultation with the attorney prior to taking any action that could later compromise your case.

With an extensive landlord-tenant law practice, and as the principal of Law Offices of Joshua B. Clark I have counseled landlords with a wide range of questions, concerns and needs. I am here to put our experience and results-oriented legal representation to use for you.
