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 non-attorney counselor.

**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 Peter's discretion and as time allows.

Attendance is capped at ten attendees for depth of discussion. If an office hours is full, check another person's office hours or try again next month.

Part of this event will be presented by **Peter Shapiro**. A graduate of MIT’s Master’s Program in City Planning, Peter founded the Housing and Mediation Services Program at Just A Start Corporation, a nonprofit housing group in Cambridge, MA. Since 1990, Peter and his team have been providing landlord counseling, mediation, training, landlord support groups, and homelessness prevention assistance across metro Boston and statewide. Peter now provides Helpline and Member services for MassLandlords, and also provides landlord counseling and mediation for the City of Boston. Peter is the author of: The Good Landlord -- A Guide to Making a Profit While Making a Difference.
