Our legal team is widely respected
Commercial landlords know they can rely on the seasoned attorneys at Wiles & Wiles, LLP to resolve their legal issues. Since the founding of our firm in 1988, our lawyers have developed a reputation for:
-Knowledge - The community considers Wiles & Wiles, LLP an authority on the law of commercial Landlord and Tenant issues. The firm's Managing Partner, Attorney John Wiles, frequently lectures to the State Bar of Georgia and has served in the Georgia House of Representatives and the Georgia Senate, where he helped pass many significant pieces of legislation. Janel Wiles is active in GAWL, the Georgia Association of Women Lawyers, and she has concentrated in lease negotiation and drafting for over twenty years. Jack Cotney is a former prosecutor with extensive trial experience. All of our attorneys are active in ICSC, the International Council of Shopping Centers.
-Responsiveness - We pride ourselves on our turnaround time, which is usually a matter of hours or days, rather than weeks or months. Our attorneys return every phone call promptly and provide clients with copies of all correspondence and important documents.
-Breadth - We practice in Georgia, Tennessee and Florida. John Wiles, the Managing Partner, is licensed in those three states as well as Colorado and Texas, and Janel Wiles is licensed in Georgia, Florida and Colorado. This allows the firm to better serve multi-state commercial landlords.
-Teamwork - The attorneys at our firm have worked together for many years. Everyone knows the status of every case, so any attorney can assist any client at any time. We're a team dedicated to solving problems collectively.
-Candor - Our clients count on us to give them the unvarnished truth about their legal issues.
Attorneys provide solutions for commercial landlords
Our Georgia attorneys counsel local, national and international property management firms in matters of:
-Leases - Commercial real estate firms rely on our experience in the negotiation and drafting of leases and all other related documents. We anticipate potential legal issues before they become problems.
-Variances - When strict compliance with a zoning ordinance or municipal code would interfere with your plans for your property, our attorneys work hard to win a variance for you.
-Lease enforcement and collection - When a tenant fails to pay the rent or otherwise violates the lease, you need a law firm that is experienced in enforcing leases and collecting judgments.
-Evictions - When you need to remove a tenant from your property, we handle the entire eviction process for you.
-Tenant bankruptcy - Bankruptcy triggers an automatic stay that halts creditors' collection efforts. Bankrupt tenants, however, must continue to pay rent if they continue to occupy your property. Our attorneys can help you get rent paid or possession of your premises.
-Commercial disputes - We are prepared to litigate your breach of contract action, domesticate your judgment or pursue your collection case.
