Will I
speak to an attorney when I
call? How do I know the
information is reliable?
No, you will not
speak with an attorney.
The counselor you speak with has
been trained in tenant and
landlord law, and will answer
any questions you have by
providing you with information
about the laws, not
advice. BNI
also has an attorney that
advises the counselors and
reviews all the information for
our publications and literature,
so the information you receive
is accurate. If you are
doubtful about any of the
information you receive, you may
request that a copy of the law
regarding your specific problem
be sent to you. You can
also contact an attorney on your
own for additional information.
How can
I get copies of BNI’s
Tenant-Landlord publications?
You can purchase copies in our
office or send in an order
through the mail.

copy of the order form is here. |
