FindLaw.com Helps Consumers With Legal Spring Cleaning March 27, 2013 3:01 PM
Spring is a time of renewal. Occasionally, that renewal raises legal questions. Hiring someone to paint your house this spring? You’ll need a contract outlining the terms of the task. Do you know someone who is finally fulfilling her resolution to draft a will? She might want to talk to an attorney.
Regardless of whether the issues are simple or complex, FindLaw.com helps consumers with their legal spring cleaning.
Here are just a few of the legal issues that consumers might need help with this spring.
Home Improvement. For those who have been waiting for the winter chill to thaw before changing the roof or hiring a landscaper, now is a great time to schedule the contractors for domestic updates. First-time homeowners may need a little help navigating the process, and FindLaw has tips about the type of information that should be included in a home improvement contract and how to choose a contractor. Lease Issues. Unfortunately, spring means the return of heat and insects. What happens if the air conditioner breaks? Or if ants invade? A lease typically explains which party is responsible for the repair workers and exterminators. FindLaw has extensive landlord-tenant law resources for the tenant who thinks that her landlord isn't upholding his end of the contract. Don't Forget Taxes! The income tax filing deadline is rapidly approaching. For those who want to learn more about your tax responsibilities, FindLaw's Learn About the Law section has a primer on tax law. If a consumer needs help with a complicated tax issue, he can find a tax attorney in the Lawyer Directory.Whether spring means cleaning up a home or cleaning up documents and preparing for the future, FindLaw.com -- the most popular online legal information resource -- can help consumers get started with legal projects this spring.
