Posted by Tristan R. Pettit, Esq. in City of Milwaukee, Seminars / Comments

The City of Milwaukee has just released its 2010 Schedule of Special Sessions for The Landlord Training Program.  The focus of these 5 special seminars will be on learning how to effectively and professionally manage your rental properties.  All of the sessions will take place on Saturday mornings to allow those of you who work an additional job (aside from being a landlord) to attend.

I am very honored to have been asked, as president of the Apartment Association of SE Wisconsin, to present one of these special sessions on Saturday, August 14, 2010.  The topic that I will be addressing is the Judicial Eviction Process.  The seminar will run from 9 am - 12 pm at Alverno College's Wehr Theater which is located at 3441 S. 39th Street.
