Protect Your Right To Quiet Enjoyment Of Your Rental Property

Every tenant has the right to quiet enjoyment of the leased premises—the right to occupy and use the property without unreasonable interference from the landlord. This is an implied covenant in every rental agreement, and it protects you from landlord harassment, interference, intrusion, and conduct that substantially interferes with your use and enjoyment of the property. When a landlord breaches the covenant of quiet enjoyment through repeated unwanted entries, harassment, interference with utilities, allowing nuisance conditions, or other conduct that makes the property uninhabitable or intolerable, you have legal remedies. Sverd Law Firm has successfully represented tenants against landlords who have breached the covenant of quiet enjoyment.

Common Breaches Of Quiet Enjoyment

Breaches of quiet enjoyment take many forms. A landlord may repeatedly enter the rental unit without proper notice or without legitimate business purpose. A landlord may harass a tenant through threatening language, excessive demands, or discriminatory conduct. A landlord may fail to prevent other tenants from creating noise, disturbance, or nuisance conditions. A landlord may interfere with essential services or fail to maintain peaceful conditions. A landlord may engage in retaliatory conduct against a tenant who asserts their rights. Each of these actions violates your right to peaceful occupation and use of the premises you are renting.
