What Landlord-Tenant Services Does Brodsky Law Offer?
Landlord-tenant law governs the rights and obligations of property owners and their tenants, covering lease agreements, rent payments, property maintenance, evictions, and security deposits. In California, tenants enjoy significant protections under state law, including the Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482), which limits rent increases and provides just-cause eviction requirements for qualifying properties. At the same time, landlords retain important rights to protect their property and enforce lease terms. Whether you are a landlord facing a difficult tenant situation or a tenant dealing with an unjust eviction or uninhabitable conditions, experienced legal counsel is essential. Sasha Brodsky has represented both landlords and tenants in Santa Cruz County and throughout California since 1998.
Landlord-tenant disputes in California often involve unlawful detainer actions (the formal eviction process), security deposit disagreements, habitability complaints, and rent disputes. Santa Cruz County has its own local tenant protections that add additional complexity to these matters. The unlawful detainer process moves on an accelerated timeline, making prompt legal action critical for both parties. Sasha provides counsel on all aspects of the landlord-tenant relationship — from lease drafting and review to eviction proceedings and security deposit disputes — working to resolve matters efficiently through negotiation when possible and through litigation when necessary.
Sasha's scope of counsel includes but is not limited to:
Whether you are a landlord who needs to pursue an eviction, a tenant defending against an unlawful detainer action, or either party dealing with a security deposit dispute or habitability concern, Sasha provides experienced counsel tailored to your specific situation. He also assists with lease drafting and review to help landlords and tenants establish clear terms and avoid disputes before they arise.
