Landlord Tenant Disputes
Tim E. Shaw Attorney At Law Services
Contract Disputes:

A dispute occurs when a controversy develops about the interpretation of payment, time or money due either party involved in a contract. A dispute, when unresolved, may lead to a claim.  

Breach of contract: failing to perform any term of a contract, written or oral, without a legitimate legal excuse. This may include not completing a job, not paying in full or on time, failure to deliver all the goods, substituting inferior or significantly different goods, not providing a bond when required, being late without excuse, or any act which shows the party will not complete the work ("anticipatory breach"). Breach of contract is one of the most common causes of law suits for damages and/or court-ordered "specific performance" of the contract.




Family Law:

Family Law is an area of the law that deals with family-related matters and domestic relations, including: child custody cases, parenting plans, divorces, property division, name change, paternity actions, child support, alimony, and name change. No matter what type family law case you we can help you through the process and the paper work. 


​The landlord-tenant relationship is defined by existence of a leasehold estate. Traditionally, the only obligation of the landlord in the United States was to grant the estate to the tenant, although in England and Wales, it has been clear since 1829 that a Landlord must put a tenant into possession. Today in the US, modern landlord-tenant law includes a number of other rights and duties held by both landlords and tenants.

The modern interpretation of the tenant-landlord relationship has hinged on the view that leases include many elements of contract law in addition to a simple conveyancing. In American landlord-tenant law, many of these rights and duties have been codified in the Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act.. We can help you through disputes and help protect your rights.
