Lease disputes in Moscow and other regions of Russia

Rent and leasing have become customary and widespread phenomena in business activity. Nevertheless, as in any other contractual relations, between the parties to rental and lease contracts complicated disputes may arise that require legal support.

Hardly is there a businessman who never came across a rent of buildings, premises, land plots or machinery. We all know that in rental arrangements there often appear disputes that can result in filing an action against a tenant or a landlord. Disputes out of rental contracts usually pertain one of the following claims.


DISPUTE AGAINST THE TENANT

Normally, a dispute against the tenant arises out of the indebtedness for rental payments. An action against the tenant in this case contains a claim for repayment of the debt for the rental payments, and can also contain a claim to terminate the rental contract or an eviction claim. Our rent lawyers in Russia shall help you in all situations of this type to resolve effectively the dispute in court or in a pretrial procedure.


DISPUTE AGAINST THE LANDLORD

Disputes against a landlord can arise, for example, when a tenant performs an inseparable improvement in the rented premises and the landlord refuses to compensate to the tenant the cost of the inseparable improvements, in which case the tenant shall file an action for compensation for the inseparable improvements. Disputes may also arise when the landlord refuses to extend the rental contract with the tenant for a new term in accordance with the preferential right of the tenant. In those and many other instances RVS lawyers shall help you to protect your rights and interests in rental disputes.
