Evictions

Representing Massachusetts Landlords in Evictions

If you wish to evict a problem tenant from your residential or commercial property, don't make the mistake of acting on your own. To comply with pro-tenant eviction laws and procedures, you need to work with an experienced lawyer who understands the rules governing landlord/tenant relationships.

At Cohen & Associates, P.C., in Salem, Massachusetts, we help property owners properly evict non-paying and non-compliant renters. We guide our clients through the legal process carefully and efficiently, striving to help them make their property profitable again.

Skilled Landlord Representation

When a tenant causes a problem that warrants eviction, it is wise to consult a skilled lawyer immediately. Failure to act quickly may cause you to permanently lose unpaid rent and sustain significant damage to your property.

Common types of problems caused by renters include:

  • Failure to pay rent
  • Engaging in acts that are a nuisance to others
  • Damaging the premises
  • Violating the lease agreement
  • Engaging in illegal activity

When you retain our services to handle a landlord/tenant dispute, we will first evaluate the lease contract. When feasible, we will meet with the tenant to discuss the situation and negotiate a suitable settlement.

If that is not successful, we will move on to more aggressive actions, including filing an eviction request in court.

Post-eviction, our firm is uniquely qualified to convert your eviction matter into a collections matter and pursue the outstanding debt owed.
