Black mold. Roaches and rats. No heat. Asbestos. Raw sewage. If your landlord ignored it, Roxbury Law Group makes them answer for it — and pay.
Tell us what's happening in your rental. A tenant-rights advocate responds the same day.
California law requires every rental to be safe and livable. When landlords cut corners, these are the conditions we hold them accountable for.
Toxic mold from leaks and moisture triggers asthma, infections, and long-term illness — especially in kids.
See if you qualify →Roaches, rats, bats, and bed bugs aren't just gross — they're a health hazard and your landlord's duty to fix.
See if you qualify →Disturbed asbestos in old buildings releases fibers that cause cancer and lasting lung disease.
See if you qualify →Landlords must provide working heat and hot water. Going without isn't an inconvenience — it's a violation.
See if you qualify →Backed-up drains, raw sewage, and burst pipes make a home unlivable — and expose you to real danger.
See if you qualify →Every California renter is protected by the implied warranty of habitability — your landlord must keep your home safe and livable, no matter what your lease says. Here's what that means for you.
Unsafe conditions must be repaired — promptly and at the landlord's expense.
Rent paid for an uninhabitable unit can be refunded — sometimes going back months or years.
It's illegal for a landlord to evict, raise rent, or harass you for asserting your rights.
"They treated my family like the problem would just go away. Roxbury made sure it didn't — and made the landlord pay for every month we suffered."Marisol T.Tenant, Los Angeles County

Hotel stays, moving expenses, and temporary housing when your home became unlivable.
Treatment for illness and injury caused by mold, pests, asbestos, or toxic conditions.
Compensation for the stress, discomfort, and emotional toll of an unsafe home.
