What happens when an attorney handles only landlord cases and no other matters? That attorney becomes a super-expert in helping landlords.
Come hear from local notable Attorney Inessa Shur, of Shur Law Group. Shur Law Group has been rated five stars over 11 Google Reviews
(which is a lot of reviews for a landlord-tenant specialist and a very high rating for an attorney).
Attorney Shur is known and respected by opposing attorneys, judges, mediators and court personnel. She will be
presenting the top ten mistakes she sees owners make, sharing stories from the trenches, and taking questions from the audience.

Shur Law Group has been representing landlords exclusively for a decade. They practice in all housing courts in Massachusetts,
represent owners of one unit as well as national management companies, and represent market and subsidized tenancies. Attorney Shur
started her practice with a small business mindset, and is always aware of and working toward your bottom line. Shur Law Group has two offices:
one in Framingham and one in Brookline.

Tim Sullivan will be attending both to share and to learn.

Second, there’s a new acting clerk magistrate following the retirement of Peter Montori. At a minimum we’ll be talking about the transition
to the acting clerk magistrate and the process for selecting a new one. Acting Clerk Magistrate Sankar and Assistant Clerk Laura Fenn will be presenting.

Third and finally, it’s a great opportunity for us to discuss the top mistakes owners make so that we can correct and avoid these issues. Our Housing Court
