Landlord/Tenant Law

The basis of the legal relationship between a landlord and tenant is grounded in both contract and property law. The landlord-tenant agreement establishes the rights and duties of the parties to a rental relationship. South Carolina law has a statute governing such a relationship in regards to a residential rental relationship. The lease agreement may eliminate or limit some of these rights, while others cannot be modified by the lease agreement. If you are a landlord interested in ensuring compliance with South Carolina's Landlord Tenant Act, or a tenant having issues with your rental property, our attorneys can help you with all your legal questions to make sure you comply with the law and protect your rights.
