In the aftermath of the housing market collapse, more large cities across the nation are seeing an increase in the share of homes that are rented rather than owned.  Economists predict that the shift to rental housing is a potentially long-lasting trend, making it more important than ever for professionals in the industry to protect themselves against real estate disputes. 

Attorney at Law Robert J. Wise provides fair, affordable services for property managers and owners in the greater Kansas City, Missouri area.  Wise’s law firm, Wise & Anderson, LLC,  works one-on-one with clients to provide productive legal counsel in cases involving violation of lease agreements and breach of contract.  They seek effective settlements and swift dispute resolution for property owners who have been damaged, especially in the eviction process. “Landlords can be accused of anything by people subject to eviction,” Wise said.  “There are plenty of people out there who are just not paying rent.”

Wise recognizes that property managers need an ally, particularly when it comes to navigating the legal system.  His extensive knowledge of landlord and tenant law and his willingness to walk clients through legal procedures reflect Wise’s dedication and compassion to his profession. “I get satisfaction from my work because a lot of people feel lost in the legal system—confused. They need some hand-holding to navigate the issues,” he said. 

Though most of Wise’s work concerns evictions and collections, he also defends property owners in Fair Housing cases. Tenants can use virtually any excuse to file a Fair Housing complaint and the property owner or manager must provide a justification for their conduct. “Under fair housing laws, landlords can’t retaliate against frivolous suits.”

For over 35 years, Wise has helped bring justice to both property owners and small business people. His knowledge of real estate and landlord-tenant matters and his commitment to customer service allow him to handle between 20 and 30 cases a week while still maintaining reasonable prices.  With more than 4 million homes lost to foreclosure over the past five years, and the number of commercial and residential rentals steadily on the rise, the demand for knowledgeable, affordable legal counsel like his is more pressing than ever.
