• Lease Drafting and Review: Creating robust rental agreements that comply with Seattle's ”First-in-Time” and ”Just Cause” ordinances.
• Judgment Enforcement: Aggressively pursuing the collection of unpaid rent and damages after a court order has been secured.
• Appeals: representing clients in appellate courts to defend favorable rulings or challenge legal errors.
• Regulatory Compliance: Advising owners on fair housing laws, security deposit rules, and notice requirements to avoid costly lawsuits.
