M: Well, we turned our house’s garage into an in-law apartment last year, and we now rent it to our brother-in-law’s best friend. To make a long story short, our neighbors filed a complaint with the city, saying the apartment is illegal.
W: Now, I believe in-law apartments are illegal in the Lakeview neighborhood.
M: See, my home’s entrance does face in Lakeview. But legal address is on . That’s not in Lakeview.
W: Alright. You may then have a case. But we’ll need to show property documents to the judge during your hearing.
