Bob was a very personable and knowledgeable lawyer who helped me win my case. His was always very thorough, honest and realistic about what to expect and took me step by step along the way. He really believes in justice for tenants and people who have been treated wrongfully by faulty landlords. He w...as recommended to me by Causa Justa and I'm so glad I hired him, as he helped my case to its fullest potential. Thanks for everything Bob!

My partner and I ( who is permanently disabled) were referred to Sundeen & Salinas by a friend after searching unsuccessfully for tenant/landlord legal representation. We also needed a lawyer who was knowledgeable about disability, gender and sexual orientation related issues. We lived by the lake ...in Oakland for 6+ years, and were wrongfully evicted by a new owner. Our unit was in desperate need of mold remediation, and despite numerous attempts to communicate with the landlord no resolution could be reached. In fact, the situation worsened over weeks and months as we were harassed in many ways: our possessions were disposed of without our knowledge; our parking was taken away; our unit was not fixed and worse of all our privacy was invaded (plus other things as well). We contacted the city and various agencies for assistance but were told our situation was too complex ( " You should get a lawyer..") due to disability rights/issues. Before finding Bob and his associates, we felt disempowered, unsafe and extremely worried that we would be thrown out on the street like our possessions. No one/family should experience this, let alone while dealing with a life threatening illness. My partner lives with a chronic illness but at the time was on dialysis and waiting for a kidney transplant. Bob was a breath of fresh air. To him, our case was not too complex, it was a challenge he would help us surpass. His breadth of legal knowledge about the intersections of housing, disability, gender, sexual orientation and economic status is extensive. We always felt we were a team with Bob. That our contributions were vital. We were listened to, respected, and our relationship was based on mutual trust and the common goal of seeking justice. Although legally astute, he was always genuine, caring and empathetic ( and even humorous was it was needed most). On numerous occasions when tears were shed he was understanding and encouraging. Our case was finally settled nearly two years after it began and we are very satisfied with the results. He worked tirelessly until a resolution was reached, that we were satisfied with, and he was transparent and professional every step of the way. Seeking legal council and Bob as as lawyer was the best decision we made ! We recommend Bob wholeheartedly to anyone with tenant/ landlord issues, especially those deemed "complex". I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer or more caring person to help us through this difficult time.

As I recently experienced in a tenant housing matter, the path to justice is fraught with risks and unexpected twists and turns. So, when you find yourself in need of legal assistance, you want a top notch advocate with both credentials and expertise. You also want a counselor -- in the ordinary se...nse of the word -- who is willing to listen and guide you with wisdom and compassion. I highly recommend Bob Salinas in every regard. I was happy not only with the ultimate settlement of my case, but especially with Bob's sensitivity to my finances and concerns. Bob is truly a good guy to know and to have on your side.

Robert Salinas represented me in landlord/ tenant issue several years ago. At the time, I was a renter in San Francisco and the victim of a wrongful eviction by my landlord. It was an extremely stressful time for me and my family. But once I was referred to Robert, I knew I was in good hands. Robert ...handled my case with thoroughness, determination and integrity. Without reservation, I would recommend Robert to anyone needing legal assistance, as he is an absolute professional, committed to bringing you and your case to the best possible outcome.
