Indianapolis Landlord Attorney

We only represent landlords, and not tenants. Roles often extend much further beyond paying rent or providing rental space. Disputes can quickly erupt with confusion over:

  • Can a tenant withhold rent?
  • Can a tenant receive a set off for repairs made to the rental property by him or her?
  • What obligations does a landlord have with respect to a security deposit?
  • What repairs must the landlord make?
  • When can a landlord evict a tenant?
  • When is a tenant allowed to break his or her lease?

Some landlord-tenant disputes have clear answers in Indiana. Others depend on the circumstances. This can be a highly complicated area of real estate law. Indianapolis attorney Angie Trapp has extensive experience representing landlords and tenants throughout central Indiana. Contact her law firm to learn how she can protect your best interests during a free initial consultation in Indianapolis.

Working Upfront To Help Landlords Avoid Disputes

Landlord-tenant disputes often occur when the terms of a relationship are poorly defined. In some cases, landlords rent property on the side to make extra cash. When dabbling in the rental business, it’s easy to casually define the responsibilities of a landlord and tenant. However, when the terms are ambiguous or not clearly defined, disputes can quickly occur. Landlord-tenant law attorney Angie Trapp works upfront to create leases clearly defining the scope of the business relationship in an effort to avoid disputes over:

  • Default rental payments
  • Eviction notices
  • Housing, health or safety code violations
  • Poorly maintained rental space
  • Failure to respond to maintenance calls
