Residential and Commercial Eviction Representation
Terminating a tenancy in California demands strict statutory compliance. As knowledgeable residential real estate lawyers and commercial real estate lawyers, we guide landlords through unlawful detainer actions from start to finish. Our attorneys draft compliant notices to pay or quit and non-renewal notices under the California Tenant Protection Act. When tenants fail to comply, we prosecute eviction lawsuits in Fresno County Superior Court, obtaining writs of possession and restoring lawful control of your properties.
Commercial Lease Drafting and Property Disputes
Commercial lease agreements form the foundation of retail and industrial properties. As accomplished contract lawyers and business litigation lawyers, we assist owners with lease drafting, rent enforcement, and breach disputes. We also advise investors on post-foreclosure evictions, ensuring smooth property transitions while adhering to California legal requirements.
Fair Housing and Discrimination Defense
Fair housing claims expose property owners to serious administrative liability. We provide defense against allegations under California's Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) and the ADA. Our attorneys represent landlords in disputes involving service animals, accommodation requests, and occupancy rules, resolving investigations while protecting our clients' investments.
Delinquent Rent Recovery and Real Estate Collections
Unpaid rent directly impairs cash flow stability. Backed by a collections division that has recovered over $270 million for California property owners, our firm combines collection tools with judicial remedies. We pursue rent judgments, bank levies, and wage garnishments, recovering lost revenue under applicable debt collection statutes.
