Tenancy law determines the daily relationship between landlords and tenants - often characterised by uncertainties, conflicts and legal pitfalls. Whether it's notices of termination, rent increases, utility bills or disputes over defects in the flat: both sides are often under pressure to act quickly and with legal certainty. In such situations, expert advice on tenancy law is essential in order to protect rights, avoid risks and implement solutions.
Tenancy disputes are more than just a nuisance in everyday life - they affect your home, considerable costs and often also nerves. We advise and represent Tenants and landlords alike in all phases - from the Contract design about the Out-of-court solution up to the judicial enforcement - and consistently check deadlines, formal requirements and leeway in your favour.

Service charges/operating costs - Check invoices, formal errors, non-recoverable items
Rent arrears & receivables management - Reminder, action for payment, enforcement, „eviction plus payment“

A notice of termination is a major blow for both tenants and landlords.
