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.

Best secret weapon ever!

Ken Carlson and Brittany Torbert have been absolute life savers! If you need help with eviction defense look no further because you won't find anything like Catenantlaw. They are knowledgeable, compassionate and know their $@#*! Make sure you understand the process and scope of what they provide. The...y are clear cut and honest right from the start.

Neglectful. I filed a claim with the Bar Assoc and will press further.

Monique Harris, Mike Hanna, and Ken Carlson took over $3000 from me to file a complaint. IT NEVER GOT FILED, NOR WAS IT EVER WRITTEN. Each time they mentioned that "The time you paid for has exhausted please remit another payment" I would send them an email asking for a detailed description of what w...as accomplished and then paid them. I never got a detailed description of what I paid for, or what they had done. I contacted them many, many times and was not responded to. I even made additional payments to them to cover future emails, letters, phone calls and writing the actual complaint, yet they never contacted me. I had to ask for Monique Harris for her bar assoc number 3 times. They sent me an email to ask me to "resend an email with the attachments in a particular way", then they charged me for sending and receiving the email. From the beginning they tried to upsell me to choose to litigate instead of small claims, it often felt like I was working with a salesperson and not an attorney. Go the extra mile, get an attorney you can meet with, one who has a physical address and has a Secretary or ParaLegal to help with the paper work. Working with them was a disorganised mess that resulted in nothing !
