Disputes between landlords and tenants can lead to significant stress and uncertainty. Whether you are dealing with a tenant eviction process, rent dispute, lease termination, or maintenance issue, our experienced law firm is dedicated to delivering practical advice and strong advocacy before the Ontario Landlord and Tenant Board (LTB).

Landlord Representation

For landlords, Estofa Law protects your property and investment with strategic counsel. We guide you through eviction processes in cases of non-payment, damage, illegal activity, or breach of lease agreement. Our team ensures that each notice and application (N/L series) is precise and defensible.

We also provide legal support to implement rental regulations, as well as applications for lawful rent increases (above the guideline amount) in compliance with the terms of Ontario’s Residential Tenancies Act. As we have a litigation-when-necessary approach to handling landlord and tenant board cases, our team also helps negotiate settlements, such as cash-for-keys, to avoid long hearings.

Why Choose Our Landlord and Tenant Board Lawyer?

Our comprehensive support ensures swift resolution, minimizing financial risk and stress. With a team of lawyers well-versed in the Residential Tenancies Act and LTB rules, we proactively file correct applications, present strong evidence, and use mediation to ensure outcomes without delays.

Whether you are a tenant who is looking for compensation or a landlord who needs support with lease enforcement, our real estate lawyer in Burlington will personalize a strategy for your case, using negotiation first and litigation only when all other routes result in unfavourable or no outcomes. For the hearing process, we make sure that your forms, evidence, and legal arguments are precise and compelling.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hasan Tahir is a great professional real estate lawyer! He helped us close our first house very smoothly! The interaction was always engaging & explanatory, I always felt at ease calling him, you can image being a FTHB how hard had I been with confusing & stupid questions but he kept guiding without pointing out my stupidity. I believe he know that this is normal for FTHB. Very grateful to Hassan Tahir for being proactive in closing the deal & arranging the keys before noon on closing day!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My parents and I had a wonderful experience working with Hassan. I reached out to him as I had come across his name before with my clients in real estate. We needed his services for a specific situation that he specializes in which my parents required.  He was patient and thorough and answered all of our questions throughout the process. Very responsive to emails and phone calls. That is not very common and I appreciated the concern he demonstrated. He also expedited the paperwork as quickly as possible when we told him it was a rush situation.  Hassan explained everything in details to my parents in person and created a great sense of relief - for all of us!  Thank you Hassan.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had an excellent experience working with Hassan Tahir from Estofa Law, as our real estate lawyer. From start to finish, he was incredibly attentive, responsive, and thorough. He always made himself available when we had questions and took the time to explain the legal jargon and nuances of the transaction in a way that was easy to understand.

We also really appreciated his transparency and fairness when it came to his fees. There were no surprises, and we always felt that we were receiving excellent value for the service provided.

What impressed us most was that Hassan’s support didn’t end when the transaction closed. He remained available to help us follow up with other lawyers and parties regarding outstanding balances and other post-closing matters. That level of care and follow-through is rare and made an already positive experience even better.

We are extremely happy with the service we received and would wholeheartedly recommend Hassan Tahir to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, professional, responsive, and genuinely client-focused real estate lawyer. He made what could have been a stressful process feel much easier and gave us complete confidence that we were in good hands.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Estofa Law helped us out with our mortgage. Between Hassan and Hafiz they were always very prompt with communication, helpful and easy going. We had several phone calls and an online meeting with Hassan who explained everything to us clearly and answered all of our questions. This was our first house purchase so everything had a steep learning curve and overall, it's a very nerve wracking process. Fortunately the lawyer portion of it wasn't too bad thanks to Estofa Law!

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hassan and Hafiz were wonderful to work with in refinancing our mortgage. They were extremely communicative and Hassan explained all parts of the process to us with clarity and honesty. We had a snag at one point unrelated to the firm, and Hassan was patient and guided us through the hiccup. I would definitely recommend Estofa Law!
