Professional and personal

I can’t even begin to explain how overwhelmed I was throughout this process and how totally confident I was made to feel by Brittany. She went so far above and beyond what I could have ever imagined and she was always so easy to talk to and provided me with the extra boost of confidence when I felt l...ike I was fighting a losing battle. She knows her stuff so well and she will work tirelessly until her job is complete. Even if that means working around the clock on the weekend. Like I said she gave me hope when I thought there was nothing else I could do. She also offered very logical alternatives to each step in this long and stressful process never making me feel forced into any decisions. All the while reminding me that I’m important and the landlord shouldn’t get away with all the horrible things they had done to me in an attempt to bully me out of my living situation. I don’t know too many other attorneys that are able to do all the things that Brittany and her team were able to do and do so well.

Phenomenal and Knowledgeable

To summarize, I had a commercial landlord who was ruthless during the Newsome-mandated shut downs of non-essential businesses in CA. In good faith I continued to pay 50% of the lease payment even while we weren't allowed to open. When the lease expired, the landlord was demanding $25,000 of back ren...t that was due "due to COVID." I consulted Ken and his team, and he and Brittany Torbert, Esq. provided me with case law that insulated me from having to pay anything as they found case law that provided protection for me. I am very grateful for their knowledge and resourceful nature! I will use them again, I am a business owner with multiple businesses and leases. I can rely on this team they are phenomenal!!

Glad A Friend Recommended This Firm!

We had to rent a home for a year. Just to get it, there was supposedly a bidding war, where we paid $500 more per month than original asking, paid six months in advance and 2 month’s security deposit. We ended up having to terminate our lease 2 months early, primarily over mold, although there we...re several maintenance issues. Brittany Torbert Provided exceptional advice and crafted a draft letter to terminate the lease. She knows her stuff and was very easy to work with. If you need the best advice for your situation, the consultation will be worth every penny. I am hopeful I don’t have to re-engage Ms. Tolbert as now our landlord has not returned our deposit.

Tenant unlawful detainer action self help sections/video

I didn't use The Law Offices of Ken Carlson as representation in my case, but in turn, represented myself In Pro Ser. I studied in great detain Mr. Carlsons' videos available concerning these types of cases and additionally used other resources through CEB Law, california codes of procedure, and civ...il cases already ruled on, and found myself to be the prevailing party to a dismissal of the summons and complaint by the judge based on Defendants demurrer to the action as the answer to Plaintiffs Summons and complaint. I want to thank Mr. Carlson for his free videos made available to the public and I would suggest to anyone facing any civil matter similar to mine, to obtain his services. I'm sure his professionalism, and knowledge as an attorney would be extraordinary in the courtroom as well. 1,000 Thumbs Up!!!

Professional, knowledgeable advocates

Attorney, Monique Harris at Cal Tenant Law made a very stressful situation with our landlord bearable. After enduring years of harassment from our landlord over habitability issues at our rental, we finally found a true professional, caring advocate! Ms. Harris answered all our questions, kept us up-...to-date on our case, even checked in just to see how we were doing. In the end she was able to help us reach a favorable outcome, all within a few months! Even the free legal information is helpful in knowing your rights as a tenant. I highly recommend the services at Cal Tenant Law.
