[RPPTL LandTen] Service animals

[Leonard Cabral]

>From the Plaintiff's side??   I did some fair housing cases with Cathy Lucrezi and BJ Owens (who were considered experts) but I wouldn't consider myself an expert but I know I could still handle one from the Plaintiff's side.  (Sorry Harry I couldn't resist.)

There is David Bodie from the Fair Housing Continuum in Melbourne, (321) 757-3532 if you want an opinion.

Subject: [RPPTL LandTen] Service animals

Not one day goes by where a client is not presented with some bogus "Registration" of a service animal off of the internet.

How are you all dealing with what you can ask the applicant/tenant as far as "proof" of necessity goes?

It is out of control.  Totally out of control.   I was told that the verification of need does NOT have to come from a doctor or medical professional but who qualifies?  The leader of the local "Stress Meet Up Group" "Insomniacs Are Us"?.

I am connected with a bunch of FH experts in the US but no one has a consistent answer.

I use a guy Robin (Robert) Hein out of Atlanta  rhein at apartmentlaw.com<mailto:rhein at apartmentlaw.com>  for all my referrals of FH issues. Do we have any real experts in this in Florida?
