Resolving civil disputes in Pennsylvania

Not every legal disagreement needs to begin with a lawsuit.

Depending on the circumstances, a written demand, direct negotiation, or other dispute-resolution approach may help.

When a lawsuit is necessary, magisterial district judges generally hear civil claims for money of up to $12,000, excluding interest and costs. In Philadelphia, the Municipal Court hears these claims. Larger claims are filed in the county court of common pleas.

The appropriate court, deadlines, available remedies, and filing requirements depend on your particular dispute.

DocDraft helps you begin by organizing your facts and preparing relevant documents.

Residential leaseExample draft

12. Security deposit. Landlord will refund the deposit, less deductions for damage beyond normal wear and tear1, with a written list of any damages, within 30 days after the lease ends or Tenant surrenders the premises.

1Question for an attorney

Does carpet wear from two years of normal living count as damage?

18. Default. If rent is late, Landlord may end the lease by giving Tenant written notice to quit allowing at least ten days to leave2; if Tenant does not pay or leave within that time, Landlord may file an eviction action.

2Question for an attorney

Can my lease waive the ten-day notice to quit?
