As a landlord, you may find yourself asking questions such as: Can I change the locks if my tenant does not pay? How do I evict my tenant if he or she engages in criminal activity? Triangle Law Group can answer these and other common landlord questions that arise during the course of a residential or commercial lease.
Lawyers at Triangle Law Group represent landlords and property managers on lease matters in commercial and residential matters. We handle cases in Raleigh and Wake County and throughout North Carolina.
Let Our Experience Benefit You
Extensive experience in landlord-tenant law and litigation allows Triangle Law Group attorneys to quickly analyze the issue and move forward to finding a creative, cost-effective solution. Laurie Gengo, the owner of Triangle Law Group, regularly presents seminars to other attorneys and landlords on landlord-tenant law issues in North Carolina. Laurie is also a landlord herself, so she brings her own personal experience to solving landlord-tenant issues.

Prevention Is The Best Defense
The most important advice we offer is to be preventative. We urge all landlord clients to have a written lease and to allow us to draft or edit that lease before a tenant signs it. Obtaining a form lease off the Internet, as many landlords do, is not wise. North Carolina leases should contain certain provisions to protect all parties. Let Triangle Law Group work with you to prepare a solid lease to avoid problems from the outset.
At Triangle Law Group, we solve problems through negotiation, alternative dispute resolution methods such as mediation and arbitration, and, as a last resort, litigation. We are experienced litigators and handle matters in state and federal courts.
