Welcome to GoodSkin, a premiere cosmetic boutique and medical office in Brentwood, Los Angeles and Manhattan, New York. We are passionate about providing the best health and wellness services, so you can age gracefully. Our expertise is in the expert application of rejuvenation tools to create a natural and “untouched” look.
THE SCIENCE OF AGING
As we get older, the visible effects of aging
on our faces are underpinned by changes in the
facial skeleton, muscles, fat and within the skin itself
FACIAL BONES CHANGE THROUGHOUT LIFE:
The eye socket gets unevenly larger.
The cheekbone becomes more straight and less angled.
The maxilla of the mid-face recedes.
The jawbone partially reduces.
Our Signature Process
We use fillers and collagen stimulators to preserve and lift lost facial structure rather than simply plumping or filling.
We use neurotoxin injections (like Botox) to treat and retrain dysfunctional down muscles, which prevents sagging and gives long-lasting results.
We use threads and fat-dissolving injections (like Kybella) to lift and reposition falling fat and sagging skin to its former higher plane.
Our clinical level skin treatments like fractional lasers, PRP micro-needling and neurotoxin facials can tighten loose skin, shrink pores and smooth the skin's texture by forming new collagen and elastin.
Do I need to hire a lawyer to rent my house or duplex?
If you are new to renting residential real estate, it can be tempting to save money by using a lease from the internet or a DIY legal form guide. These leases may not be fully applicable to your situation, or worse, may contain clauses that violate Ohio law. If a problem arises under a DIY lease, you may find yourself in a situation where you must pay damages and attorney's fees to your tenant.
My tenant is behind on rent. What are my options?
There are a couple things that you can do when you have a tenant who is not timely paying rent. First, your lease may specify a non-payment penalty that you can collect with the late rent. You could negotiate a payment plan with your tenant, accepting partial payments to make up the amount owed, but this may result in an alteration of the lease agreement and make it more difficult to remove the tenant for non-payment of rent in the future. Lastly, you can evict your tenant for non-payment.
Can I evict my tenant without a lawyer?
It depends. If you have set up a limited liability company to rent your property, only a licensed attorney can represent the company in court. If you are renting property you own in your own name, you can pursue an eviction yourself. The Franklin County Municipal Court lacks a form that can be used to initiate an eviction, and the clerks may not assist you in making sure your complaint is complete, that you have followed all of the required steps, or give you guidance in conducting a hearing on your eviction. Failure at any step in the process will likely result in your property not generating rental income for a considerably longer length of time.
My tenant has overstayed their lease. Can I remove their property and change the locks while they are not there?
Removing your tenant's property and changing the locks to deny access to the property, even after the tenant has no legal right to remain at the property, is illegal under Ohio law. You may proceed with an eviction action against the tenant, and seek to recover money damages for your tenant's overstay.
I would like to limit my personal liability in the event of an accident at my rental home. What can I do?
There are many ways to limit the chance that you will be personally liable for an injury or accident that occurs at your leased property. First, you can purchase landlord insurance, which is probably required by your mortgage lender if you do not own the property outright. You can also set up a limited liability company (LLC) to own and manage your rental property to insulate yourself personally from liability. A tenant or tenant's guest who is injured at your property could sue the LLC and recover money from the LLC, but not from your own assets, assuming you run the LLC properly as its own venture. It is important to consult your lender prior to transferring your property to an LLC, as it may trigger a "due on sale" clause, resulting in your current mortgage being cancelled, and the total amount due being demanded immediately.
What can I expect from the eviction process?
How much does it cost to evict a tenant?
In addition to the fee you pay your attorney to represent you, the following filing fees are required to be paid to the Franklin County Clerk of Court:
Can I recover money from my tenant who I evicted?
You can recover money due under the lease as well as money for any damages to the rental property beyond ordinary wear and tear. Seeking money from the tenant in an eviction is known as a "two cause action." If the tenant files an answer to the complaint, the hearing on damages will be delayed to a second court date.
My tenant moved out after giving proper notice under the lease but left the property a mess. Can I keep the security deposit?
You can only deduct from the security deposit for damages done to the unit beyond normal wear and tear. For example, a hole in drywall that is larger than a nail-hole that needs to be patched and painted can be charged against the deposit. General cleaning services to get the unit ready for a new tenant are not chargeable under the security deposit. If you are replacing floor covering as a result of the condition they were left it, you may be able to charge some of the cost against the security deposit, but the cost must be the expected remaining value of the replaced flooring, not the cost of the new one. The remainder of the deposit and an itemized list of deductions must be given to the tenant within 30 days after they have moved out.
