Our firm maintains an active landlord–tenant practice, with a particular focus on representing property owners and managers in eviction and summary process matters in Tolland and Hartford Counties. We regularly advise landlords regarding compliance with Connecticut’s statutory eviction procedures and the risks associated with contested housing matters.
Eviction proceedings are not merely administrative filings. They involve strict statutory requirements, court‑specific practices, and the potential for delay or trial if matters are not handled correctly. We advise landlords at each stage of the process, including pre‑termination (“KAPA”) notices, Notices to Quit, Summary Process complaints, and, when appropriate, the execution of judgment.
We work closely with landlords and property managers to evaluate timing, cost, and litigation risk, and to determine whether matters are best resolved through negotiation, agreement, or court proceedings. Our approach emphasizes efficiency, compliance, and informed decision‑making, while remaining prepared to address contested hearings or trials when necessary.
In addition to eviction matters, we assist clients with commercial and residential lease agreements, including lease drafting and enforcement issues that may arise before or during a tenancy.
Because eviction proceedings can have significant financial and operational consequences, we view landlord–tenant representation as a form of business risk management, not simply court filing. We strive to provide practical guidance that allows landlords to make informed decisions while navigating Connecticut Housing Court procedures.
