Landlord and Tenant Disputes

We represent both landlords and tenants in residential and commercial tenancy disputes, combining courtroom strategy with practical resolution planning under Indian property and tenancy law frameworks.

Key Services

• Commercial and residential lease drafting, review, and enforcement
• Eviction proceedings and wrongful dispossession defence
• Rent arrears and security-deposit recovery disputes

• Premises liability and negligent-security claims
• Landlord rights and tenant protection under the Transfer of Property Act, 1882 and the Registration Act, 1908

Protecting Rights on Both Sides of the Lease

Housing disputes escalate quickly when lease obligations break down. Wrongful eviction, unpaid rent, illegal lockouts, withheld deposits, and uninhabitable property conditions are all actionable when handled with the right legal strategy.

What We Handle

We provide comprehensive legal support in landlord-tenant disputes across commercial and residential leases, including drafting and review, renewals, assignments, licences, rent and deposit disputes, dispossession claims, repair obligations, and tenancy-right enforcement before civil courts and rent-control authorities.

For Landlords

We pursue eviction proceedings, recover unpaid rent, enforce lease covenants, and draft enforceable tenancy documentation under the Transfer of Property Act, 1882, applicable rent-control frameworks, and the Registration Act, 1908.

For Tenants

Wrongful eviction, unlawful lockouts, arbitrary deduction of security deposit, and denial of basic habitability are legal violations. We defend tenancy rights and pursue restitution, compensation, and injunctive relief where required.

Why This Practice Matters

Because we represent both landlords and tenants, we anticipate the opposing side’s arguments early and structure each matter for efficient resolution through negotiation where practical, and decisive litigation when necessary.
