How We Help People in Their Disputes with HOAs (with Attorney Erik Perez)
- Q. I would like to know if there is a legal approach to ending a solar panel contract.
- A: The contract should be reviewed by an attorney to identify whether there is any basis for termination of the contact. Also, the circumstances may be explored further to identify whether there is grounds for a recission due to undue influence. However, that is a difficult claim to prevail on. At the end of the day, a termination may also be negotiated.
- Q. Can I be evicted from a motel where I have maintained permanent residency at for almost 1 full calendar year ?
- A: Yes, you can be evicted. However, it must be for a legal reason such as nonpayment of rent, failure to cure a maintenance issue, etc. Based on the information you have provided it, it is possible the landlord has failed to comply with the notice requirements for an increase in rent and/ or has failed to cure maintenance issues. I would recommend sending a notice to cure pursuant to the statute and also notifying the landlord you need the requisite notice for an increase in rent.
- Q. Can a hotel, keep your deposit without showing you proof of damage. Even after they denie you with proof of damage.
- A: In order to claim the deposit there must be damages. The hotel cannot simply claim it for the sake of claiming it. As it relates to disclosing photos of the damage, I do not believe there is a requirement to disclose them upon request. However, if you file suit, you can request the photos through the discovery process.
