MassLandlords: Real Estate Events for Education & Networking

We'll be having open office hours about any rental real estate legal topics you may care to bring. This meeting is a great opportunity for members to learn from an experienced attorney.
We will not enter attorney-client privilege. We will not address questions in private. We will have a group discussion about legal topics of interest to attendees. Questions will be answered entirely at Attorney Greenman's discretion and as time allows.

Part of this presentation will be given by Attorney Jordana Roubicek Greenman. She is a real estate lawyer, recipient of the Super Lawyers Rising Star award 2012-2020, and one of Boston Magazine's Top Lawyers of 2022 and 2023. Her practice - with offices in Boston and Watertown - includes commercial and residential landlord/tenant disputes, condominium association representation, general real estate litigation, and commercial and residential real estate closings. Attorney Greenman has a well-respected reputation for aggressively advocating for her clients' goals, and ensuring beneficial outcomes at a reasonable cost. She was an instrumental part of the team spearheading legal action opposing the Massachusetts and Boston eviction moratoriums, and is very active within the legal community. Attorney Greenman is a member of the Real Estate Council for the Massachusetts Bar Association and the Real Estate Bar Association, writes columns for the Massachusetts Lawyers Journal and Real Estate Bar Association News, and regularly leads legal seminars for first-time homebuyers and small-property owners.
