Traumatic Premises Injuries
Unsafe or poorly maintained rental properties can pose serious risks to tenants, leading to traumatic injuries. These injuries may occur due to hazards such as broken stairs, faulty wiring, lack of proper security, or other preventable dangers. At Shakhnis Law, we hold negligent landlords accountable for failing to maintain safe premises. We believe no tenant should endure pain and suffering because of a landlord’s negligence.
Our team handles cases involving:
- Slip and falls caused by unsafe flooring or stairways.
- Injuries from faulty electrical systems or appliances.
- Assaults or harm due to inadequate security measures.
- Long-term injuries resulting from unsafe structural conditions.
If you’ve been injured in your rental property due to landlord negligence, we can help you seek compensation for medical bills, lost wages, and pain and suffering. Our team is dedicated to achieving justice for tenants and ensuring landlords are held accountable for the safety of their properties.
Toxic HVAC Units and Tenant Health Risks in Apartments
Poorly maintained HVAC (heating, ventilation, and air conditioning) systems can expose tenants to toxic substances like mold, carbon monoxide, and other harmful pollutants. These issues can cause serious health problems, including respiratory illnesses, allergies, and even life-threatening conditions. Landlords are responsible for ensuring HVAC systems are safe and functional, as part of their duty to maintain habitable living spaces.
At Shakhnis Law, we assist tenants dealing with:
- Health issues caused by HVAC-related mold or contaminants.
- Carbon monoxide exposure from faulty heating systems.
- Respiratory illnesses linked to improper ventilation.
- Landlord neglect in addressing HVAC system repairs or maintenance.
If you or your family have been affected by a toxic HVAC unit in your rental property, our attorneys can help you seek compensation and hold landlords accountable for their negligence. Don’t let unsafe conditions go unchallenged—we’re here to fight for your rights.
Bed Bugs and Landlord Negligence in Los Angeles Rentals
Bed bug infestations in rental properties can cause significant physical, emotional, and financial distress for tenants. These pests often spread due to landlord negligence, such as failing to address infestations or maintain a clean and habitable environment. Bed bug bites can lead to skin irritations, allergic reactions, and even psychological trauma, disrupting daily life and comfort.
At Shakhnis Law, we help tenants affected by bed bug infestations by:
- Investigating landlord responsibility for the infestation.
- Pursuing compensation for medical expenses, property damage, and emotional suffering.
- Ensuring landlords comply with California habitability laws and pest control standards.
- Advocating for tenants to recover relocation costs when infestations render properties uninhabitable.
If you’re dealing with a bed bug problem in your rental property, contact Shakhnis Law to learn about your legal options and protect your rights as a tenant. We are committed to addressing these issues so you can regain peace of mind.
