Permanently Displaced After a Fire? Let Us Fight for Your Legal Protections!
A fire can be one of the most disruptive events you can experience: they come out of nowhere and devastate your life in an instant. Losing your home and personal belongings can force an unexpected restart. In these turbulent times, you deserve representation who will fight for the necessary compensation you deserve.
Right to Habitability
Under California law, landlords have the responsibility to maintain the habitability of your home. Your lease is terminated after a wildfire if the property is either destroyed or damaged beyond repair. A landlord must return your security deposit within 21 days of your written notice of lease termination. Be sure to document and date the impaired conditions of the unit. You may be entitled to compensation if landlords force you to continue paying rent or do not return your security deposit.
Unlawful Eviction
If you were unlawfully evicted by a landlord, you may be compensated for the property loss claims, displacement costs, emotional distress, and accountability for negligence. Common tactics used by landlords may be becoming unresponsive or harassive, raising your rent, shutting off utilities, removing your personal belongings, changing the locks, avoiding repairs, or preventing you from returning after evacuation.
Loss of Belongings
If you lost personal belongings and had additional expenditures due to being permanently displaced, you may be reimbursed through your landlord, renters insurance, government assistance, and landlord insurance. Strengthen your claim by keeping your receipts and documenting everything.
We can help you by providing compensation for any and all property loss claims, displacement costs, emotional distress, and accountability for any negligence.
