In this video, our Linn County homeowners association attorneys explain how a lease agreement obligates you, the tenant, and the landlord typically for a set period of time. Most often for residential leases, it is a year. Under most residential lease agreements, a landlord can’t raise the rent or change terms until the lease period ends, unless otherwise provided for in the lease. At O'Flaherty Law Linn County, we are dedicated to protecting your rights as a tenant. If you feel as if your rights have been violated, do not hesitate to contact us for exemplary representation.

In this video, our Linn County condo association attorneys explain how withholding rent is a potential remedy, it is not recommended. Failing to pay rent because your landlord doesn’t make repairs to your residence is dangerous and risky. The landlord may evict you, leaving you homeless. While you can take the case to court, you do not know whether a judge will agree that the problem with the residence was so bad that you had the right to withhold rent. However, it is illegal for a landlord to refuse to make necessary repairs or to shut off utilities because a tenant is simply behind on rent. If you feel as though your rights are being violated by your landlord, do not hesitate to contact O'Flaherty Law Linn County for exemplary representation.
