Landlord-tenant attorney private-intake and representation-scope workbook
Landlord-tenant matters can involve private agreements, notices, communications, property details and dates that do not belong in a public worksheet. This helpful preparation resource from PickYourPro.ai keeps those contents in a separate secure channel. Use it to prepare a non-confidential role, jurisdiction and matter-stage brief, index private record categories, ask consultation questions and compare written attorney engagement scope. It is not legal advice and does not interpret a notice, deadline, lease, condition or remedy.

Preparation and proposal comparison only; not legal advice, representation, rights, duties, notice, deadline, service, filing, evidence, lease, deposit, eviction, habitability, discrimination, retaliation, remedy, court, agency, settlement or outcome guidance. Keep names, addresses, unit details, account numbers, access information, allegations, communications and document contents out. Ask a licensed attorney or official local resource about deadlines, required actions and law in the relevant jurisdiction.

How to use this resource
Use neutral labels such as Client A, Property A, Agreement A and Notice A. Do not enter names, addresses, unit numbers, access details, allegations, account numbers, document contents or communications. Record only category labels and where private records are stored. Ask counsel directly and promptly about any date, notice or required action. Compare who will review records, advise, communicate, negotiate, appear and close the engagement.
Open the PDF in a form-capable viewer, save a copy, then fill it in. Reopen your saved copy to check your answers. You can also print the blank pages and write by hand. Your answers are not submitted to PickYourPro.ai.
INDEX PRIVATE RECORDS AND SCOPE
List categories, not contents. Ask counsel how and when private material should be shared.
CHECK CONSULTATION READINESS
Tick what is organized. These checks do not confirm a right, deadline, notice, filing, evidence, remedy or outcome.
QUESTIONS FOR THE LANDLORD-TENANT ATTORNEY
Record the answer and where it appears in consultation notes or written engagement terms. Do not record privileged details here.
COMPARE THE SAME CLIENT A BRIEF
Use Attorney A and B. Clarify unlike review, advice or representation assumptions before comparing proposals.

Landlord-Tenant Attorney preparation checklist
- Use Client A and Property A; keep names, addresses and unit details private.
- State the client-reported role and general matter type without legal conclusions.
- Identify the state, county or locality only if needed for attorney routing.
- Index agreements, notices, communications and condition records by label only.
- Take every date or required-action question directly to counsel promptly.
- Ask who reviews records, communicates, negotiates and appears if needed.
- Clarify consultation-only, limited-scope and full-representation boundaries.
- Get communication, billing, document-return and engagement-end terms in writing.
Questions for the landlord-tenant attorney
- Is this within your practice, jurisdiction and current availability, and what should remain private until conflicts are checked?
- Which private record categories should counsel review, through what secure method and in what order?
- Who will confirm any date, notice, response or next-step question, and how should urgent issues be routed?
- Does the proposed scope include advice, document review, communication, negotiation, filing or appearance, and what is excluded?
- Who will work on the matter, how will updates and approvals be handled, and who is the primary contact?
- How are fees, expenses, unused funds, records, withdrawal and the end of the engagement explained in writing?
Write down the answers and any exclusions. If two proposals describe different work, clarify the difference before comparing their totals. Leave unanswered points blank until the professional confirms them.
