LANDLORD & TENANT

Landlord & Tenant Law
Serving Rochester, Dover, Wakefield, NH & Surrounding Areas

Landlord and Tenant Law concerns renting and leasing property and the rights of both the owner and the renter or lessee. The Landlord and Tenant Attorneys at Hanlon & Zubkus represent several landlords operating large apartment complexes, several landlords who own and operate one to ten apartments and others who rent a duplex or a part of their home. The statutes setting forth landlord and tenant law in New Hampshire are RSA 540, 540-A, and 540-5. A landlord cannot use “self-help” to remove an unwanted tenant from his leased property. Doing so could lead to a Chapter 540-A action being initiated against the landlord with a potential penalty of a thousand dollars per infraction.

If you are a tenant in the Dover, Rochester, or Wakefield, NH area and feel that you were unjustly evicted or your landlord has turned off your electricity, water, heat, or cable, you may need to seek an immediate order under Chapter 540-A, requiring the landlord to turn the utility back on.
