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.

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.

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 !

I found ken few months back by researching, and I was so glad that I found him. I was facing eviction during the pandemic because landlords wanting to sell, but because of ken I was able to negotiate, and leave without paying anything, and no eviction on my credit, and best of it all I’m living som...ewhere 10x better. I was scared I never had been in a situation like this before, but it all worked out at the end. Thanks ken

But . . . what about the Mom and Pop operation where the tenant who is behind was always that tenant who paid late, or was behind prior to the pandemic? The tenant who already is/was on public assistance, who did not lose that assistance, but simply just stopped paying the rent because they know the...y can. The tenant who is behind on their rent, yet all of their teenagers have dirt bikes, sports equipment, large screen televisions, etc.? The tenant who asks if they can build a fence around the mobile home, but has been behind on the rent payments by one month for over a year? How about that tenant? Does that make the landlord the bad guy just because he and his wife work 16 hours a day to remodel low income housing units to be a provider of that service, and need to by paid? We both work two jobs, and we pay thousands of dollars to make our mobile home units comfortable for low income people, we offer a rent option for purchase to help others become financially stable in their lives. Now here you are calling us bullies. I can understand calling the large corporations bullies, I have been a renter in a large apartment complex when I was a single mom. But this video is offensive to the small guy trying to make it work, and help others at the same time. Then the legislators complain that there is a low income housing shortage in California. Gee, I wonder why? It simply is not worth it if an owner/builder who works this hard, has absolutely no power to replace a bad tenant with a paying tenant. Commercial stores have the right to refuse service to anyone, after the customer has entered the store. What incentive is there for a builder to keep building low income housing? None! I expect the low income housing shortage to grow exponentially in California.
