Rochester Landlord Tenant Lawyer Discusses Emotional Assistance Pets

As an experienced Rochester Landlord Tenant Lawyer, I am often asked by landlords whether or not they must rent to a tenant who has an emotional assistance pet, if it’s in violation of their no pet provision.

  • If you refuse to rent to a tenant like this, you can face discrimination charges if they have note from a doctor or therapist that says they need the pet

Have you been asked by a prospective tenant if they can rent your property with an emotional assistance pet?  If so, contact the experienced Rochester Landlord Tenant Lawyer Robert Friedman.
