Real estate · Washoe County
Landlord–tenant law in Washoe County.
Landlord–tenant matters move on short deadlines. This office takes them, for landlords and for tenants.
The short answer
Nevada landlord–tenant matters run on short statutory clocks: notice periods, answer deadlines, and hearing dates measured in days. Whether you are the landlord or the tenant, the first step is the same: bring the lease and every notice you have received or served, and find out which clock is running.
What this office handles
- Advice on Nevada’s eviction laws and the notices that start them, for landlords and for tenants.
- Lease review, deposit disputes, and habitability questions.
- Representation in Washoe County justice courts on either side of a matter, though never both sides of the same one.
Nevada-specific detail
Nevada sets the notice a landlord must give, the time a tenant has to respond, and the steps a court follows, in statute. The periods are short and differ by the reason for the notice, which is why the first question is always which notice was served and when.
Bring the lease and the notice. The first thing to establish is which deadline is running.

Both, though never both sides of the same matter.
What should I bring?
The lease and every notice you have served or received, with the dates. That is enough for the first conversation.

Bring the lease and the notice. Find out which deadline is running.
Landlords and tenants both. You’ll hear which deadline is running, then the first step and what it costs.
