Phocus L.
G'day, my name is Michele! I work with startups, entrepreneurs and small/medium-sized businesses across the country in a wide array of industries. I help them with all of their ongoing, daily legal needs. This includes entity formation, M&A, contract drafting and review, employment, asset sale & acquisition, and business sales or shareholder exits. I'm half-Australian, half-Italian, and I've lived the last 20+ years of my life in America. I've lived all over the USA, completing high school in the deep south, graduating cum laude from Washington University in St. Louis, and then cum laude from Georgetown University Law Center. After law school I worked for the Los Angeles office of Latham & Watkins, LLP. After four intense and rewarding years there, I left to become General Counsel and VP of an incredible, industry-changing start-up called Urban Mining Company (UMC) that manufactures rare earth permanent magnets. I now work for Phocus Law where I help run our practice focused on entrepreneurs, startups, and SMEs. I love what I do, and I'd love to be of help! My focus is on providing stress-free, enjoyable, and high-quality legal service to all of my clients. Being a good lawyer isn't enough: the client experience should also be great. But work isn't everything, and I love my free time. I've been an avid traveler since my parents put me on a plane to Italy at 9-months old. I'm also a music nut, and am still looking for that perfect client that will engage me to explain why Dark Side Of The Moon is the greatest album of all time. Having grown up in a remote, and gorgeous corner of Australia, I feel a strong connection to nature, and love being in the elements.

Residential Lease Agreement
California
Amendments in a residential lease agreement?
I recently entered into a residential lease agreement and have recently been asked to make some amendments to the agreement. These amendments are not clear to me and I would like to understand the implications and legalities of the changes before I sign the new agreement.
Myrna L.
First, you do not have to agree with your landlord to change your lease agreement. Second, know why your landlord wants to change your lease agreement. Third, what rights/benefits do you give up if you agree with your landlord to change your lease agreement.

Rental Agreement
North Carolina
How to draft a fair rental agreement?
I recently moved to a new city and am looking to rent an apartment. I am unfamiliar with the laws and regulations around rental agreements in this area, and I want to make sure that I create a fair and legally binding agreement with my potential landlord. I want to make sure that both my rights and those of my landlord are protected.
N'kia N.
North Carolina General Statute 42 contains the North Carolina Residential Rental Act i.e. the landlord-tenant law. Generally, North Carolina landlord-tenant law requires that (1) a residential landlord keeps the property fit and habitable and (2) a residential tenant keeps the property safe and sanitary, pays the rental fee at the time and in the amount agreed upon, and follows (valid) agreed-upon rules. It also addresses other important issues like security deposit, late fee, required notice, termination, and eviction. One important aspect of the statute is that it does not allow a residential landlord to avoid or disclaim certain responsibilities simply by having a tenant agree in a rental agreement. Another important aspect of the statute is that it allows a residential tenant to recover money from a landlord who engages in certain particularly egregious conduct. It is important for a future residential tenant to know each party's rights and responsibilities before entering into a residential rental agreement. If you are considering signing a North Carolina residential lease, you are entitled to have an attorney review it and advise you before you sign.

Residential Real Estate Lease Agreement
Washington
Can a landlord increase the rent during the term of a residential lease?
I recently signed a residential lease for a two-year term, and I'm concerned about the possibility of my landlord increasing the rent during this period. I have heard conflicting information from friends and online sources, so I am seeking clarification on whether a landlord has the right to raise the rent during the term of a lease. I want to understand my rights as a tenant and whether there are any legal protections in place to prevent such a rent increase.
Merry K.
Under the Washington Residential Landlord Tenant Law, a landlord may not change the terms of a lease during the lease, at least not on his or her own (sometimes landlords and tenants negotiate a change). In addition, a lease is a type of contract, and one party to a contract cannot change a contract on their own. If you live in Seattle or a few other places in Washington, you have even more protection than under Washington state law. Here is a really good place to read about your basic rights as a renter. This website is written and vetted by attorneys for lay people, and I have provided this information to countless people over the years because it is reliable: https://www.washingtonlawhelp.org/topics/housing/renters Here is another website for you. However, I'm not familiar with this one, and don't know how reliable ti is: https://tenantsunion.org/rights Good luck to you!

Can a landlord change the terms of a rental lease agreement without the tenant's consent?
I recently signed a rental lease agreement for an apartment, which clearly outlined the terms and conditions of the tenancy. However, my landlord has informed me that they intend to make changes to the lease agreement, specifically regarding an increase in rent and modifications to the maintenance responsibilities. I am concerned about the legality of these changes and whether a landlord can unilaterally alter the terms of a rental lease agreement without obtaining the tenant's consent.
Lorraine C.
As with most legal questions, the answer is "it depends." Without reviewing the original lease, I can't know if there is a reservation of rights for the landlord to increase rent or change maintenance responsibilities without amending the lease or obtaining additional consent. If you would like me to review the lease for you to provide a more solid answer, please feel free to contact me. Lorraine Coats, Esq.

Commercial Lease Agreement
Massachusetts
Can a landlord increase the rent during the term of a commercial lease agreement?
I am a small business owner who recently signed a commercial lease agreement for a retail space. The lease specifies a fixed monthly rent for the duration of the lease term, which is three years. However, I have received a notice from the landlord stating that they intend to increase the rent by 20% starting from the second year of the lease. This sudden increase is unexpected and would significantly impact my business's profitability. I want to know if the landlord has the legal right to increase the rent during the term of the lease agreement, and if so, what options do I have to negotiate or challenge this increase?
Laura H.
One of the primary benefits of a lease, from a tenant's perspective, is that it allows them to stay in a property for a set time at a guaranteed rental rate. The landlord is bound by the amount agreed to in the lease and cannot legally raise it without the tenant's consent. They cannot force a tenant to consent by threatening eviction. Some commercial leases include a clause that requires the tenant to pay a portion of property taxes, utilities to the landlord, or other amounts that are not fixed at the time of signing. That could result in an increase before the lease ends. Read the document carefully to see if it has such a clause.
