We know the ins and outs of the housing market in Montebello, and that is why we are here for the tenants. At The Law Firm For Tenant Rights, Inc., we are here to help you stand up to your landlords and protect your home. Whether it is unfair eviction, unsafe living conditions, or illegal rent hikes, our goal is to fight for your rights and hold your landlord accountable.
Every tenant deserves a safe and habitable place to live. The housing market is full of challenges for renters, so when you’re looking for a place, you should feel secure. Unfortunately, that is not always the case. Landlords are often the cause of unfair evictions, and their negligence leads to uncertainty and instability, which renters have to face. We are here to challenge that, represent tenants diligently in court, and uphold their rights.
Our founder, Rahman Popal, is a champion of tenant rights and believes that with proper guidance and advocacy, tenants can stand up to their landlords and hold them accountable for unfair treatment. Whether it is illegal or discriminatory, renters need a team committed to protecting their rights and ensuring they have a safe place to call home.

Check the Montebello Rent Stabilization Ordinance to see if your unit qualifies for rent review and what exemptions apply.
Just cause includes nonpayment, lease violations, owner move-in, withdrawal of units from rental use, or major repairs and demolition.
