Description

Authored by an attorney with over a decade representing tenants against landlords, this book is designed to serve a reference guide to the laws specifically protecting the rights of tenants living in California. Tenants in California are afforded substantial rights. These rights are explicitly defined by the California Civil Code, and are also set by court rulings (also referred to as case precedents). The purpose of this book is to explain the rights provided to tenants by the California Civil Code, and to cite the laws and case precedents that specifically protect and benefit tenants. The information provided by this guide will clarify the rights and liabilities of the tenant in the landlord/ tenant relationship and serve as a quick reference to the specific laws and cases applicable to common landlord/tenant disputes.Knowledge is power. The information discussed in the following pages will empower the tenant whose property owner is attempting to take advantage of them, or who may be involved in an unlawful detainer (eviction lawsuit).The majority of books presenting themselves as Tenant's Rights Guidebooks do a fairly good job of explaining the rights entitled to a tenant. However, they do not go on to cite the laws or case precedents establishing those rights. This book separates itself from other Tenant's Rights Guidebooks by providing those specific civil codes and case precedents necessary for a tenant to effectively negotiate a Settlement Agreement or raise a formal argument at trial.
