Legal Rights and Duties Affecting Residential Tenants
To a tenant, a rental dwelling is home. Of course, home means something unique to everyone and these special feelings are recognized. With this said, Mole Legal Services also recognizes that impartial empathy is often necessary to remain focused upon the legal issues and to remain an objective advisor and negotiator. Mole Legal Services helps tenants to resolve disputes by first reviewing the facts and issues and then by working to negotiate a resolution with the landlord. If resolution is evasive, Mole Legal Services can prepare the required Landlord Tenant Board forms and advocate at Landlord Tenant Board hearings.
