Houston, Texas
1 Yr Experience
Licensed in DC, NY, WA
Wayne State University

July 29, 2023 My name is Diamond Simpson Roberts, ESQ, MSPH and I am convinced that I can be a value added asset to most any company. As the first in my family to graduate a four-year university, I graduated from Wayne State University Law School in 2000 but could not afford a bar prep course upon completion. After over 20 years, I sat for the July 2022 UBE, successfully passed and am currently licensed in three states! This is an example of my self-motivation, internal drive and passion. I offer over 28 years of diverse experience in healthcare, strategy, sales/marketing, legal/policy and business savvy. I have many years building, leveraging, and sustaining long term relations to drive revenue as an entrepreneur and for corporations. My analytical strengths provide me with an innate ability to think through tough situations/topics while viewing both vantage points (which is excellent for law and life). I have been appointed to serve on numerous committees due to my heightened ability to identify client issues and priorities and provide solutions based upon relevant products, services and needs. I have led teams with and without authority; specifically, I have managed teams for an Adult Foster Care Facility called Etonne Cares, during my post-graduate fellowship with the largest Catholic Healthcare System in the U.S. and during my two-year executive order appointment with the Federal Government (Presidential Management Fellowship). Most importantly, I am a collaborative team player who knows how to improvise, overcome and adapt! I offer numerous years of being a pharmaceutical trainer and being an adjunct using the online platform. I welcome the opportunity to continue in the interview so that I may further highlight the skills I can (and will) contribute to my success in the role.

Landlord Tenant Legal Questions and Answers

Landlord Tenant

Lease Agreement

New York

Asked on Mar 21, 2023

Can the landlord terminate the lease early?

I am currently renting a property and I am concerned about the possibility of the landlord terminating the lease early. I am wondering what circumstances would allow the landlord to terminate the lease before the end of the agreed-upon term, and what my rights and options would be if this were to happen. I would like to seek the advice of a lawyer to help me understand the legal implications and potential outcomes of this situation.

Donya G.

Answered Mar 24, 2023

It will depend on what your lease states. You will need someone to review your lease and then advise you based on what the contract allows. It is not typical that a landlord to end the lease early unless there is a break on the tenants portion but this would all depend on the signed lease. If you need assistance with that, you can engage my services to assist you Donya

Real Property

Residential Lease Agreement

New York

Asked on Sep 10, 2023

Pets and residential lease agreements?

I am a tenant in a residential property and I am considering adopting a pet. The lease agreement does not specifically mention anything about having pets in the residence. I am looking to understand the legal implications of having a pet in the rental property and what my rights are as a tenant in this situation.

Craig C.

Answered Sep 29, 2023

I would want to double-check your lease. Often times there is a no-pet provision under the rules section. Further, unless you are planning a legitimate registered service animal, I would get written permission for your future protection.

Landlord Tenant

Lease Agreement

New York

Asked on Mar 21, 2023

Can the tenant use the property for storage?

As a business owner, I am looking to rent a commercial property to use for storage purposes. However, I am unsure if the property's lease agreement allows for such use or if there are any restrictions in place. Therefore, I am seeking legal advice on whether I can use the property for storage and if there are any legal implications I should be aware of.

Donya G.

Answered Mar 24, 2023

In order to advise you on the lease, you would have to have the lease reviewed so that the purposes for the lease can be established and discussed with you. I can help to review your lease and advise you on you can and cannot do based on the lease. You can connect with me via the website to engage my services Donya Gordon

Landlord Tenant

Rental Agreement

Washington

Asked on Oct 5, 2023

How to amend a rental agreement?

I am a tenant in an apartment that I have been renting for the past year. Recently, my landlord has asked me to sign a new rental agreement with updated terms and conditions. I would like to know the process for amending the agreement so that I can make sure all the terms are agreeable to both parties.

Merry A.

Answered Oct 6, 2023

Speaking generally, if your agreement is a lease, neither the landlord nor tenant can amend it unless both parties agree (the same can be said for a completely new agreement). If it is a month to month agreement, if you don't sign, the landlord may be able to give you notice to vacate. What I would do is ask for a couple of days for review. Put your current agreement down with the proposed new agreeement down, side by side, and go through them together, paragraph by paragraph. At the same time, make notes about anything in the new agreement you don't like, and attempt to negotiate the terms with your landlord before signing. Please note that the WA State Residential Landlord Tenant law was modified in several ways by the WA State Legislature, effective a few months ago - this may be why your landlord is doing this. For example, a landlord now has 30 days to return a security deposit (or explain why he/she isn't); it was 21 before that, and 14 before that). To review the Landlord/Tenant Law at the same time, follow this link: https://apps.leg.wa.gov/rcw/default.aspx?cite=59.18 If you would like to hire me to help, I am not available until October 15th, I'm afraid - I'm on vacation at Yosemite.

Nichole C.

Answered Mar 18, 2022

It is unclear what your exact question is. Unless illegal or unconconscionable, anything can be agreed to in a contract. Enforcing the agreement may require litigation. If you are asking if the clause is a valid one, it could be. If you are asking what to do if the landlord did not honor it, you may need to sue. If you are asking if this is standard and was not in the contract, the answer is no. You cannot assume it is. Hope this helps some. Contact me if you would like a consultation specifically on this issue.

Working with their service was efficient, effective and made me feel in control. Thank you so much and should I ever need attorney services down the road, I'll certainly be a repeat customer.
