Domestic Violence in Residential Tenancies
Event Details
Have you ever had a domestic violence situation occur at your property?
Have you been trained to legally and ethically handle this type of situation?
In many states, Domestic Violence victims have specific protection from being evicted as a result of the DV incident. Still, even more importantly, HUD has recognized that Domestic Violence victims can be protected under the Fair Housing Act, as well. Let our attorneys bring you up to speed on the laws in your State that relate to tenants who are DV victims, Fair Housing Act implications for common DV situations, and how the provisions of your Lease may also impact your ability to file and/or evict a tenant in a DV situation.
Page Morgan, Senior Associate Attorney, and Cynthia Smith, Senior Associate Attorney with Loebsack & Brownlee, will discuss the most important legal issues associated with handling domestic violence situations on-site in North Carolina.
