On December 7, 2023 HOME Line hosted a free Continuing Legal Education (CLE) webinar, covering the new policies impacting Minnesota Tenant/Landlord law in 2024. Representatives from Heller & Thyen law firm, Volunteer Lawyers Network, Mid-Minnesota Legal Aid, Southern Minnesota Regional Legal Services, University of Minnesota Student Legal Services, and HOME Line presented on the incredibly wide range of topics including changes to the Eviction process, Expungements, Emergency Tenant Remedies Actions, Tenant Privacy, Cannabis, Move in/out Inspections, and more—as well as fielding a range of questions from the live audience. The recording, agenda, and materials are below.
In addition to this detailed CLE designed for attorneys, we have additional summary materials and webinar recordings on specific new law topics on our dedicated new laws page here.
