Support clients experiencing tenancy issues with confidence. The Centre for Public Legal Education Alberta (CPLEA) offers a free tenancy law course covering key Alberta tenancy laws, tenant rights, common legal issues and options for resolving disputes inside and outside the court system.

In Alberta, landlords and tenants have two primary ways to resolve disputes: the Residential Tenancy Dispute Resolution Service (RTDRS) and the provincial courts. 

The process of ending a tenancy, whether a fixed-term lease or a periodic lease, can be troublesome if the property manager or owner is unaware of the termination rules. Both lease types have specific requirements to meet the qualifications of delivering a proper termination notice. 

Landlords and property managers face various challenges, from water leaks and appliance breakdowns to fire damage. However, the death of a tenant is an uncommon and complex situation that requires a different approach.
