Trusted Legal Advocacy For Landlords Or Tenants In Virginia

Landlord-tenant issues can be some of the most complicated areas of the law. Reasons for suit and defense are myriad. Our firm represents both landlords and tenants in most courts in the Hampton Roads area, and our attorneys are adroit at spotting issues and defense.

In general, any landlord owning four or more rental units falls under the Virginia Landlord Tenant Act, Va. Code Ann. 55-248, and thus incurs certain obligations to tenants. Moreover, tenants renting from such landlords are owed certain duties. This area is wherein most litigable issues arise. However, other litigable issues arise having to do with debt collection, property damage, criminal matters, etc.

In short, one’s best bet is to secure experienced and motivated real estate law counsel like the attorneys at Dickerson & Smith Law Group.
