Founded and led by experienced attorney Maria A. Giragossian, an alumna of Loyola Law School and active member of the Pasadena Bar Association, the practice champions the rights of vulnerable tenants. When you need an experienced real estate lawyer to fight back against abusive property management, Giragossian Law, Inc. provides courageous, compassionate, and resolute representation.

Holding Landlords Accountable for Warranty of Habitability Breaches

Under California Civil Code Section 1941.1 and the California Health and Safety Code, landlords are legally mandated to maintain baseline living standards. When rental properties fall into severe disrepair, tenants frequently suffer respiratory illnesses, physical injuries, and severe emotional distress. As committed residential real estate lawyers and contract lawyers, the legal team aggressively prosecutes claims involving chronic habitability violations, ensuring property managers either remedy substandard conditions immediately or pay substantial compensatory damages for their negligence.

Actionable Housing Violations and Unsafe Living Conditions

Renters should never be forced to endure hazardous housing situations due to fear of eviction or financial instability. Drawing on years of focused litigation experience, the firm assists individuals and families confronting:

• Severe mold contamination, sewage leaks, plumbing failures, and lack of hot running water.
• Persistent vermin infestations, including bed bugs, roaches, rodents, and vector pests.
• Inoperative heating systems, defective electrical wiring, and missing smoke or carbon monoxide detectors.
• Structural hazards involving broken staircases, collapsing ceilings, and damaged flooring.
• Compelling landlords to pay statutory relocation fees when properties are deemed uninhabitable.

Stopping Landlord Harassment and Retaliatory Evictions

When tenants complain about deficient premises or report safety hazards to municipal housing inspectors, unscrupulous landlords sometimes retaliate with illegal rent increases, baseless eviction notices, utility shutoffs, or invasive harassment. Giragossian Law, Inc. steps in swiftly as trusted business litigation lawyers to defend tenant dignity, enforce statutory protections against retaliation, and recover damages for breach of the covenant of quiet enjoyment. In addition to residential litigation, the firm assists clients in contract drafting, resolving commercial lease conflicts, and navigating complex real property agreements.
