QUESTION
Can a leaser sue to recover unpaid rent?
Asked on Mar 12th, 2013 on Landlord and Tenant Law - Nevada
More details to this question:
I was manipulated into signing a one year lease on my office space. I did not sign a second one year agreement therefore the rent was paid monthly. The leaser owed me money for a service I provided him. I did not pay the rent for 7 months and then moved out. Can the leaser sue me to recover unpaid rent?

Yes, if you do not have a written agreement regarding the services your provider were in lieu of paying rent. Whether or not he can win is to be seen.

Yes, the landlord could sue you. But, you could present your defenses based on the services you provided.
