Landlord Tenantability Duties
San Francisco Tenantability Duties Attorney
Mission Bay Habitability Issues Lawyer
As a tenant there are certain tenantability duties that landlords owe to you. Whether you know all of the tenantability duties or not, if you suspect that a landlord is not meeting his or her obligations, you should consult with an attorney who can explore the issue with you and help you take appropriate action.
At the Law Offices of James Coy Driscoll located in San Francisco, California, we are here to protect tenants and their rights when landlords fail to fulfill their tenantability duties. Whether apartment maintenance requests have not been fulfilled or another habitability issue has occurred, we are here to help you protect your interest and your unit. Contact us today for a free initial phone consultation to learn more.
Under California law, if certain conditions are not met, you may be entitled to a rent reduction or have a clear defense when facing eviction.
In some instances, some issues that do not rise to the level of untenantablility may be issues that you can pursue in small claims court for money back as rent reduction or if you had to spend money to correct a problem that should have been covered by the landlord. We can help you prepare for small claims court, represent you before a rent board, or help you negotiate with your landlord about these issues.
