Landlord / Tenant Law

Our attorneys at Biberaj & Snow have experience handling leasing and litigation issues for both landlords and tenants, in both commercial and residential settings. The variety of our experience assists us in developing the right strategy to pursue your particular goal.

Landlords have already invested significant amounts of time and money in their rental property. Thus, they need to find a cost-effective and efficient way to resolve disputes, manage leases, and keep the premises in habitable condition. Perhaps most importantly, landlords need paying and responsible tenants so that the landlord can maintain consistent revenue and make debt payments on the property.

Tenants are often at a disadvantage when it comes to the protection of their rights; many statutes are designed to help landlords, and leases are often drafted or prepared by landlords. Tenants have a right to enjoyment and use of the premises, safe and habitable living conditions, and lease provisions that do not expressly violate Virginia law, in addition to good faith treatment by the landlord.

Our practice includes the full range of issues under landlord/tenant law in Loudoun and Leesburg, from leases to evictions, including:

Failure to pay rent
Evictions/unlawful detainer
Three-day notice
Drafting and negotiating leases
Damage to property
Tort and negligence issues
