Tenancy issue resolved quickly!!

We hired Nick to help us with a tenancy issue. Nick was professional in his work and clearly knowledgeable about the options open to us. He provided sound advice and helped us to resolve the issue in a very timely manner and with minimal stress. Thank you Nick.

Landlord Tenant

I recently had an issue with a tenant regarding non payment of rent as well as the same tenant moving in two more occupants without our consent. After hearing about nightmare stories on how difficult eviction could be we knew we needed help. I contacted Attorney Sylvia for advice and he went right t...o work. He was able to get this tenant and the unauthorized occupants out with just a letter of notice and a notice to quit for non payment. He also spoke to the tenant himself when they decided to stop communicating with us. Attorney Sylvia is very knowledgeable, straightforward and a confident Attorney. This could have turned out worse but it didnt thanks to him. I highly recommend Attorney Sylvia to anyone who is experiencing what we just did. Definitely keeping him around.

  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
