Learn From Tristan
Attorney Tristan Pettit drafts many of the Landlord-Tenant forms used across Wisconsin. Learn the law straight from the source.
Connect With Your Peers
Spend the day alongside other investors, landlords, and property managers who are in the rental industry, just like you.
Taught by the attorney who wrote the book and writes the forms.
Attorney Tristan Pettit wrote The Landlords Companion: A Comprehensive Handbook of Residential Landlord-Tenant Law in Wisconsin in 2024. He also drafts many of the Landlord-Tenant forms sold by Wisconsin Legal Blank — the documents landlords across the state rely on every day. Tristan has over 30 years as an attorney and 20 years focusing solely on Landlord-Tenant law.
Each attendee receives a 300+ page manual that includes:
Tristan’s seminar outlines
Landlord-Tenant law forms
And much more!
