Cape, Islands and Statewide Virtual Meeting Mon Oct 26: Checklist for Preparing for Court

At this event we will help owners and managers evaluate for themselves whether they are prepared for court following the end of the state moratorium and the start of the CDC moratorium. A sample checklist of considerations:

• Is the issue primarily nonpayment, cause, or no cause stated?
• If the issue is nonpayment, is the renter covered or likely to be covered under the CDC moratorium?
• Are there code issues with the unit?
• Is there a security deposit? Is it compliantly held?
• And much more

This presentation will be given by attorney Kate Higgins-Shea. Attorney Higgins-Shea is a partner at Lyon & Fitzpatrick, LLP in Holyoke. Her practice concentrates on housing, representing landlords and property managers in civil and eviction cases. She also represents court-appointed receivers. She has been instrumental in developing our rental forms and has been a long-time contributor at MassLandlords Greater Springfield. As the courts become fully virtual, attorneys based in any region may represent clients anywhere in the state.
