What Are My Rights?

Landlord Tenant law is governed by Chapter 83 of the Florida Statutes. Landlord Tenant law deals specifically with the individual rights of both the Landlord and Tenant. Attorney, Zachery Keller, has assisted both Landlords and Tenants on various cases advocating for each as the specific facts dictated. As a general rule of thumb Landlords have the right to collect rent and for their property not to be destroyed or damaged. Alternatively, tenants generally have the right to quiet peaceful enjoyment of the property or space they are renting.

What Can I Do If My Rights Are Violated?

Chapter 83 of the Florida Statutes provides for a number of remedies if your rights are violated. Depending on the severity of the violation, you may be entitled to compensation, the expense of litigation, and in narrow circumstances punitive damages. To determine if your rights have been violated and if you are entitled to compensation, it is important that you speak with a qualified attorney.
