A lease is a method by which a land owner grants an interest in real property to another person for a stated period and for a stated amount of money. The terms of a lease are very important. Any lease should be carefully reviewed to make sure your rights are protected. At the Law Offices of John R. Reeves, PC, we have prepared leases through the years for both landlords and tenants. We can help protect your interests in any lease.
Lease disputes and lease review
A lease sets out the rights and duties of the landlord and tenant, including rent, deposits, repairs, and how the lease can be ended. Residential leases in Mississippi are also governed by the state’s Residential Landlord and Tenant Act, which sets rules on matters such as security deposits and notice. Commercial leases are mostly controlled by their written terms.
