Dispossession/Eviction of a Tenant

In Georgia, evictions lawsuits, also called dispossessory proceedings, are governed by the landlord and tenant chapter of the Georgia Code. While a landlord may evict a tenant for not paying rent or for violating a portion of the lease or rental agreement, there are many tenant rights that cannot be neglected or abused. Landlords are required to go through certain procedures in order to evict a tenant, however at the time that this is written, the laws in Georgia do not provide clear details. Because of this, landlords often find themselves in difficult legal disputes with tenants.

Among other specialties, he has negotiated and litigated leases and lease disputes, handled numerous appeals in state and federal courts, including U.S. District Bankruptcy Court and U.S. District Court.
