Landlord Duty to Repair and Maintain
California tenants have the right to a habitable house or apartment, and it is the landlord’s responsibility to ensure that the house or apartment is in fact habitable.
Landlords must abide by building codes and maintain house or apartment in a habitable and clean living condition. If the landlord is violating this duty, there are a number of ways a tenant may be able to respond, which may include: filing a lawsuit, moving out, withholding rent, and being compensated for relocation. A mold injury attorney may be able to better assist you and guide you through the process.
Common Violations
Anything that presents a health or safety risk to the tenants of the house or apartment may be a violation of a tenant’s rights.
If any of the following apply to you and your living situation, strongly consider consulting with an experienced mold attorney as you may be entitled to compensation.
Common habitability issues include:
1) Mold contamination and water damage;
2) Landlord’s failure to timely respond to tenant’s notices;
3) Roaches, bedbugs and rodents due to the landlord’s negligence:
4) Non-functional plumbing, heating, electrical, or other utilities;
5) Asbestos contamination; and
6) Conditions which make your home unsafe and uninhabitable.
These issues may put your health and safety at risk. Please reach out to us today for a free consultation.
Landlords and small businesses receive ADA suits on a daily basis. Most do not know where to start. A CASp inspection may be helpful if one was performed recently. If not, you may want to have one performed in order to determine what repairs are necessary in order to be in compliance with ADA laws and regulations. You may also want to consider taking such actions as a preventative measure before the initiation of any ADA lawsuit.
Have you or a loved one experienced living in an apartment with black toxic mold? Understanding your legal rights and options is of utmost importance. Certain landlord’s may paint over the mold or simply disregard it. However, the black mold you are living in may cause health problems which have not yet been correlated to the mold. If so, please call us today for a free consultation.
During times of Covid-19, many landlords and tenants are dealing with the uncertainty of what is to come and how to handle the rent due now and coming due. One thing to consider is that there may be outcomes that can be of benefit to both the landlord and the tenant. Consider using a percentage rent basis wherein both parties stand to gain.
Numerous tenants are attempting to renegotiate their rent with their landlord’s at this time. If you are attempting to do so, there are CA Civil Codes and public policy arguments that may be applicable.
