Property Owners – Webinar to Prevent Discrimination Lawsuits

How to Prevent Emotional Support Animal (ESA) Discrimination Lawsuits
Brought to you by American Apartment Owners Association
Thursday, November 8th at 11am PST/ 2pm EST 

Lately, emotional support animal requests have become borderline absurd, leaving landlords confused and vulnerable to lawsuits. We’ve invited Attorney/Author, Robert Friedman to provide updates on the latest laws.

He will provide answers to these questions: 

• What is the difference between a service animal, a therapy dog, a psychiatric service dog and an emotional support animal (ESA)?
• Does an ESA need specialized training?
• What exceptions are there to the law?
• What documentation may a landlord request from the tenant who needs an ESA?
• Can the landlord charge a pet security deposit or extra rent for an ESA?
• Can animals other than cats and dogs act as ESAs?
• How much are tenants being awarded for discrimination against ESAs?
• What special lease language should be used for ESAs?
• What laws protect the landlord if the tenant misrepresents the need for an ESA?
