What happens when the salon owner breaches the lease agreement?
Salon owners are bound to the terms of a lease just as the renters are. If the owner breaches the lease agreement, the booth renter or mini-salon owner has legal recourse to remedy the breach. This may be achieved through the court system, arbitration or mediation. Renters who have been wrongfully evicted or negatively impacted by an owner’s actions may seek reinstatement of their leasing benefits and amenities in a manner comparable to what they were before the negative impact, financial compensation for business interruption or loss, and even criminal prosecution in some extreme instances. Examples of how an owner might breach a lease agreement are unlawful eviction/ lockouts; failure to provide services or amenities set forth in the lease; and violation of a tenant’s rights to quiet possession.
