On June 14, 2022, Michael Littman presented a Webinar: Pet Peeves: Dealing with Tenants’ Nuisance Pets and Responding to Requests for Assistance Animals
Join Michael Littman, partner at Sidrane & Schwartz-Sidrane, Perinbasekar & Littman, LLP, as he discusses state and local pet and fair housing laws, and the difference between pets and assistance animals.
In this session, you’ll learn:
- How to deal with tenants who keep pets in violation of your building’s no-pet policy
- How to deal with complaints about a tenant’s noisy, unfriendly, or unsanitary pet
- How to evaluate a tenant’s request to keep an assistance animal: when you can request documentation verifying the tenant’s need for the animal and what kind of documentation you can request
- When you can deny requests for an assistance animal
- What types of animals can—and can’t—be assistance animals
- Whether a resident can be entitled to more than one assistance animal
