How a Consumer Hired a Lawyer to Draft a Lease Modification Agreement in Wisconsin

In 2022, a personal client in Wisconsin sought assistance with drafting a lease modification agreement after purchasing a property from a family member. The original lease, which covered part of the property, lacked essential clauses addressing maintenance responsibilities and liabilities, particularly in light of troubling conditions at the home and concerns about the tenant's behavior. With the goal of outlining clear expectations and protecting their interests, the client aimed to amend the lease to include provisions for maintenance and liability insurance. As a result, the client received one proposal from a licensed lawyer, with flat fee bids starting at $300, all submitted to meet the client's deadline of one week.
