Welcome to The Law Firm for Tenant Rights, Inc. We’re your go-to team for tenant troubles in Santa Rosa. From Roseland to downtown, we support you when landlords don’t. Our lawyers know California housing law inside out. We bring expertise straight from San Francisco to you.
You’re dealing with enough rent increases, slow repairs, and eviction threats. Please don’t ignore it. Your home isn’t a gift—it’s your right.
Over 44% of Santa Rosa residents rent, and landlord drama is common. From West End apartments with leaks to Southeast places with steep prices, renters face similar issues everywhere. We help level the field.
Our goal is to protect your rights quickly and boldly. You shouldn’t have to “hope” your landlord behaves—we ensure they do.
Understanding tenant laws can be tricky. We simplify it for you. Our team knows California housing rules and local codes. Here’s how we can help.
Santa Rosa lacks local rent control. But California law offers protection. AB 1482 limits yearly rent increases and enforces solid eviction rules. It isn’t a loophole—it’s your power.
We explain it in simple terms. No fancy words. Just action.
Don’t panic. We offer proof and protection. Santa Rosa renters have statewide laws on their side. If your eviction lacks legal grounds, it’s not valid.
We’ll check your notice, lease, and options. We stop illegal evictions before they start.
Your lease might be a trap in plain sight. Hidden fees, tricky clauses, and tough penalties can hurt.
Send it to us before you sign. We’ll decode every detail and spot the red flags. If it’s unfair, we negotiate or tell you to walk away.
If you’re thinking about subletting, check your lease first. Not all Santa Rosa rentals allow it; one mistake could cost you.
We’ll help you review your lease and draft sublease terms that won’t lead to eviction threats.
Landlords in Santa Rosa must follow California’s habitability laws. If they ignore your repair requests, we’ll step in.
We can file complaints, demand quick fixes, or go to court. Your place should feel like home, not a hassle.
Rent jumped by $300 overnight? Hold on. The Tenant Protection Act limits how much and often landlords can raise rent.
We examine the figures and the notice. If it’s illegal, we fight back. If it’s suspicious, we flag it.
Midnight calls? Surprise visits? Scary texts?s It isn’t “being tough”—it’s harassment.
Santa Rosa tenants are safe under state and federal laws. We document the harassment, report it, and seek damages if needed. Respect is a must.
Were you denied housing because of your race, gender, disability, or income? That’s not policy—it’s discrimination.
You have rights under California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act. We’ll file complaints, represent you in court, and make sure your voice matters.
No. Under AB 1482, most evictions require “just cause,” like nonpayment or lease violations.
Lack of heat, leaks, pest infestations, unsafe wiring, and mold all count.
Yes—but follow legal steps. Document everything. Call us before acting.
30 days for increases under 10%. 90 days for more than that.
That’s illegal. It’s considered a form of unlawful eviction.
Yes. Your landlord must provide one upon request.
Start with the California Civil Rights Department. We’ll help you file.
We’ll help you draft a demand letter or sue in small claims.
No. Your landlord must give 24-hour written notice unless it’s an emergency.
Retaliation is illegal. We’ll build your case and protect your rights.

California’s housing market continues to hit historic highs. Landlords are perversely incentivized to harass, issue unjust eviction notices, and otherwise push out long-term and below-market tenants to increase profits. Many tenants are not aware of local and statewide protections that may benefit them. Contact us to learn about your rights so we can help you stay housed. If you’ve already been displaced, we can help you secure a measure of justice.
