We will help you with all kinds of disputes over the use of leased property. Or maybe you face an issue over a security deposit or breach of a lease agreement. We handle small claims court matters involving landlord and tenant (renter) issues, including issues over the removal of fixtures, damage to premises, penalties in leases, multiple leases, sub-letting, subleasing of space, warranties, and other issues in Pennsylvania and West Virginia. Talk to an attorney about the best way to resolve your eviction notice issue and/or your claim for damages to property. We also represent owners of houses and apartments, those who rent a duplex. Likewise, we represent tenants whose property or security deposit has been wrongfully witheld. When can you move out? Can you sublease the property? Can your landlord impose a penalty provision in the lease? Should your security deposit generate interest while the landlord controls it? How clean must the property be? Who is responsible for normal wear and tear? We can give you the answers. Your local magistrate may have exclusive jurisdiction over your landlord tenant matter. Your case will get more complicated on appeal from small claims court or an arbitration proceeding. It will make sense to have an attorney at your side. Useful links.

Integrity. Experience. Value.
You Likely Need Help.
It is easy to represent yourself at the magistrate (small claims) level. There, you can file your complaint on a hand written form and you can respond to a complaint just as easily. Overall, the small claims court forum exists to resolve disputes in the absence of counsel. That said, on appeal, everything changes.
Complexities on Appeal.
If either party takes an appeal from the magistrate (small claims) court, certain formalities come into play, which means you take great risks by representing yourself. For example, you risk blowing a deadline to respond to the appeal, file a complaint, answer, or respond to discovery. Likewise, the formalities required of your complaint, answer, and pre-trial submissions increase dramatically on appeal.
Trial Litigation.
At our firm, we focus on trial litigation, which involves the preparation of pleadings, discovery, cross examination of witnesses, and appeals. Many of the significant cases we handle on the jury trial list come from appeals from arbitration or magistrate hearings. You need a lawyer with experience in difficult cases to forward your case competently.
How To End Litigation.
Your opposing litigant will be more inclined to settle with you if he or she knows you have an experienced attorney at your side. Your best chance to settle a case will come through communicating to the other side that you are ready for a bench trial and/or jury trial. We have several years of experience handling appeals involving money awards for damages, lease issues, collection of debt, landlord/tenants issues, eviction, breach of contract and other matters. Let us serve as your advocates in Pennsylvania.
