See all- Fourth Wednesday Office Hours with Attorney Sherwin: Wed Jun 25thLink visible for attendees
Attorney Sherwin will start his office hours by discussing any recently concluded cases or case law of interest.
After that, 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 Sherwin's discretion and as time allows.
Part of this presentation will be given by attorney Adam Sherwin. Adam is an experienced real estate litigator with years of experience representing landlords, property owners, and other real estate professionals. He has extensive experience litigating real estate disputes before judges and juries and has obtained favorable decisions from the Massachusetts Appeals Court and District Court Appellate Division. He is also a long-time crash course instructor at the Cambridge headquarters and over zoom.

Let's meet to have a focus group to draft a garage and storage rental agreement. Or really, to identify the features we would want such that it can be drafted at a future date. We imagine that such an agreement would be totally separate from our residential agreement for tenancy. We want to post a new members-only form to rent a garage or storage space in a residential structure or neighborhood but without rights of residential tenancy. This will address the needs of a small but growing number of members who are renting apartments to carless households and garages to non-households.
Attendees will leave having helped us identify the key aspects of this proposed new form.
Chat will be moderated by Doug Quattrochi, Executive Director, MassLandlords, Inc. Doug was a founding member of MassLandlords in 2013. He became the association's first Executive Director under new bylaws in 2014. Since then, he has scaled the organization from a core of 160 members in Worcester to approximately 2,500 dues paying businesses from Pittsfield to the Cape, and from an all-volunteer team to approximately 20 full and part-time staff plus 50 volunteers. Doug has been instrumental in advancing democratic governance mechanisms, including score voting for policy priorities and a staggered and democratically elected Board of Directors. Doug also oversees the RentHelper spin-off, which is expanding access to electronic banking for those of us who are unbanked or underbanked. Prior to MassLandlords, Doug held leadership roles in various Massachusetts startups, two of which are still operating. Doug holds a Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.
