Comprehensive Legal Services in Tampa Landlord/Tenant Law
Florida law provides specific rights and obligations for both landlords and tenants. At Seward Law Office, we assist clients with lease negotiations, enforcement actions, eviction proceedings, and more. We represent both sides of the landlord-tenant relationship, providing strategic advice that protects your interests and complies with Florida statutes and local regulations.
Federal Jurisdiction in Landlord/Tenant Disputes
Some real estate conflicts fall under federal law and must be litigated in federal court. Our Tampa landlord/tenant law lawyers are prepared to handle:
- Fair Housing Act claims: Allegations of housing discrimination involving race, disability, religion, or familial status.
- ADA compliance disputes: Accessibility claims related to commercial real estate, particularly for retail or multifamily housing units.
- Quiet title actions: Claims involving federal agencies such as HUD or the IRS, often under the Quiet Title Act (28 U.S.C. § 2409a).
When federal questions are involved, such as in discrimination or accessibility cases, Seward Law Office can represent you in the appropriate venue and help ensure your rights are protected.
Foreclosure & Bankruptcy-Related Real Estate Litigation
In some landlord/tenant cases, foreclosure or bankruptcy proceedings overlap with ongoing lease or occupancy issues. Seward Law Office handles:
- Foreclosure defense involving federal laws like RESPA and FDCPA
- Bankruptcy litigation: Including motions for relief from stay, lease disputes, or fraudulent property transfers in bankruptcy court
Our firm understands how to navigate these multi-layered situations to protect your investment or occupancy rights during complex litigation.
