"Chaz was extremely helpful, thorough, and professional. I hired him for a cease and desist letter involving an unauthorized use of my company’s business identity, EIN, and credit. He took the time to review the documents carefully, explain the legal issues in plain English, and help me understand the strengths and challenges of my situation. What stood out most was how organized he was. He prepared a legal analysis memo before our call, walked me through the authority issues, and adjusted his approach after reviewing additional company documents. He was patient, clear, and never made me feel rushed, even though the situation involved several complicated details. The final work product was strong, detailed, and tailored to my specific facts rather than feeling like a generic template. I would definitely recommend Chaz to anyone who needs a knowledgeable attorney who communicates clearly and takes the time to understand the full picture."

Adam was the only one to step up and be an advocate for my family. He was extremely prompt with his communication and transparent with his fees. I never once felt like I was being ignored or having my concerns brushed aside. Adam listened and addressed every single one of my concerns in a professional manner. His knowledge with how solar companies work gave me the confidence to know I was going to achieve what I was looking for. I highly recommend Adam, I am so glad I hired him to represent me when nobody else would."

Michelle D.
My career experience has been varied. Although litigation has been a central focus, I’ve served as Of Counsel for a franchise law firm, negotiating contracts with franchisees and vendors to ensure the best terms possible for my client. I have demonstrated acumen in leading and supervising the work of others. As an associate attorney for Shulman Rogers, I oversaw the Summer Intern Program. Throughout my career I directed the work of paralegals and legal receptionists. As a solo practitioner I employed a junior attorney. At each phase I was responsible for the work and performance of another. In my transactional practice I regularly advise clients on agreements, negotiate favorable terms on their behalf, draft agreements, interpret contractual provisions in disputes, provide opinion letters, and represent clients in mediation and arbitration. I’m accustomed to working in high stress, high stakes environments with quick deadlines, demanding and often emotional clients, while performing work that requires great detail, accuracy, and advocacy.

Notice to Vacate
California
Can my landlord evict me if I have been unable to pay rent due to financial hardship caused by the COVID-19 pandemic?
I am currently facing financial hardship due to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has resulted in a significant reduction in my income. As a result, I have been unable to pay my rent for the past few months. I recently received an eviction notice from my landlord, and I am unsure of my rights and options in this situation. Can my landlord legally evict me during this time, considering the circumstances?
Benjamin G.
Good morning, Your landlord cannot evict you. They can, however, provide you with a notice to vacate, Which presumably is what they have given. At the conclusion of the . Assigned for the notice, There may be a summons for eviction and a court date assigned. At that point, you will then go to court and be able to explain your circumstances and only the court can grant you an extension or evict you. If the court chooses to evict you, they will give you a 36 to 48 hour time Period to vacate. However, the court will consider all of your circumstances, and I would urge you to present your medical condition as one of your mitigating factors.

Landlord-Tenant Issue
Washington
Version: Can a landlord legally raise the rent by 50% without providing any notice in advance?
Version: I recently received a notice from my landlord stating that my monthly rent will be increased by 50% starting next month, with no prior notice given. I have been living in this apartment for several years and have always paid my rent on time. I am wondering if this sudden and significant rent increase is legal, as I have not been provided with any explanation or justification for such a drastic change.
Merry K.
In Washington State, for a month to month tenancy, a landlord must now provide two months advance notice in advance, in writing. More advance notice may need to be given if you have a lease or if you live in certain cities or counties that have additional protections for tenants. Here is an excellent, vetted source for legal information - if you scroll down this page, you will find all kinds of reliable information about renters' rights: https://www.washingtonlawhelp.org/topics/housing/renters If you end up writing a letter to the landlord on your own, I recommend (1) remaining polite and professional; (2) Don't try to "sound like an attorney,"; and (3) mail your letter through a post office with one letter going out by regular mail and one by certified mail, return receipt requested. If the landlord doesn't see the error of his or her ways, you may need an attorney to help you. There are attorneys who specialize in landlord/tenant law, a form of real estate law. If you are low income, contact legal services or a pro bono (free) attorneys organization for free or low cost hlep. Please be aware that landlords are prohibited from retaliating against tenants when the tenants are simply exercising their rights. Good luck to you.

Rental Agreement
Washington
Who keeps the original rental agreement?
I am a tenant who recently signed a rental agreement with a landlord. I am curious as to who keeps the original agreement, as I was not given a copy of the agreement after signing. I would like to know if I am entitled to receive a copy of the document and who will be responsible for keeping the original agreement.
Merry K.
It is customary for the landlord to keep the original. WA State Law requires the landlord to give the tenant a copy: https://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=59.18.065

Addendum to Lease
California
Can an addendum to a lease be used to modify the terms of a lease agreement?
I am currently renting a commercial space for my business, and I recently received an addendum to the lease agreement from my landlord. The addendum contains several changes to the original lease terms, including an increase in rent and modifications to the maintenance responsibilities. I am unsure if the landlord has the legal right to make these changes through an addendum, and I would like to understand the validity and enforceability of this document.
Dolan W.
Hello! I'm so sorry about this situation! To modify a contract legally, the following requirements must be met: 1. All parties to the contract must agree to the modification. This means that both parties must sign and date the amendment to the contract. 2. The parties to the contract need new consideration -- something of legal value -- to modify a contract. For example, if a party wants more money for something they would need to provide additional performance in exchange. 3. A writing is not required for a modification, but recommended. In your case, you said that you received the addendum to the lease agreement and it contains changes to the original terms, including an increase in rent. An increase in rent would be a change to a material term, requiring you to pay more. Because you would be required to pay more, your landlord would have to offer something in exchange for this to be binding. This means that unless the lease was up for renewal, the modification would be invalid. Thanks again and good luck!

Residential Lease Agreement
California
Background checks for residential lease agreement?
I am a landlord looking to rent out a residential unit. I understand that the best way to protect myself and my property is to perform background checks on potential tenants. I want to know what is legally required of me in order to do background checks for residential lease agreements. I am also interested in learning what types of background checks are recommended for tenants.
Myrna L.
Background checks of tenants normally include credit checks, employment verification, previous landlord reference checks, and personal references.
