Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Illinois
I rented the property to a man and woman who are not married. Both of their names are on the lease. She claims he is unable to meet is part of the obligation and wants his name off the lease. What can I do as a landlord. If she gives me the rent can the receipt be only in her name? I understand I cannot remove his name from the lease.

If he fails to pay rent, you will have to file an eviction action against him. If you need assistance with that, you can call me at 312-372-5600.
