Contract-vs-law analysis
LawLab compares the contract clauses to the rights granted by the Tenancy and Borrowing Law and flags gaps.
Tenancy
Renting an apartment?Know what you're entitled to.
Upload the rental contract and LawLab explains your rights under the Tenancy and Borrowing Law, flags clauses that hurt you — excessive securities, repairs, eviction terms — and cites the law. In Hebrew, in minutes.
As a tenant you have rights the law protects, even if the contract says otherwise. The Tenancy and Borrowing Law, and especially its "fair tenancy" chapter, limits certain terms detrimental to the tenant — for example regarding the repair of defects that prevent reasonable living, the level of securities that may be demanded, and terms that shift costs onto the tenant that aren't theirs. Many are unaware of their rights and sign problematic clauses, or refrain from exercising a right they're owed. Checking the contract against the law helps you know what to ask to fix and what you're actually entitled to.

Frequently asked
- What are a tenant's basic rights?
- Among others, the right to receive an apartment fit for living and to have material defects repaired, protection from demands for excessive securities, and limits on terms detrimental to the tenant under the "fair tenancy" chapter of the Tenancy and Borrowing Law. LawLab flags where the contract falls short.
- Can the landlord demand any deposit amount?
- No. The Tenancy and Borrowing Law limits the type and level of securities that may be demanded in a fair residential tenancy. LawLab flags whether the securities in the contract exceed what's permitted.
- Does this replace a lawyer?
- No. LawLab helps you understand your rights and spot problematic clauses, but it's not legal advice — in a real dispute, consult a licensed attorney.
- Which formats are supported?
- PDF, DOCX, or pasting text directly. Contracts in Hebrew and English can both be analyzed.
