Understanding Tenant Harassment

Tenant harassment involves deliberate actions by landlords intended to intimidate, pressure, or force tenants out of their homes, often to evade legal responsibilities. While these acts are unethical, they are also illegal under California law.

Examples of Tenant Harassment Include:

• Cutting off essential utilities like water, electricity, or gas.
• Frequently entering your unit without proper 24-hour written notice.
• Delaying or refusing to complete necessary repairs.
• Threatening, intimidating, or verbally abusing tenants.
• Filing false or frivolous eviction notices.
• Offering cash incentives to vacate without proper legal disclosures (“cash for keys” schemes).
• Retaliating against tenants for organizing, asserting their rights, or filing complaints.

If you’re facing any of these situations, you may have grounds for legal action. Riley Ersoff can help you understand your options and take the next steps to protect yourself.

Your Rights as a Tenant

California law ensures that renters are protected from harassment and abuse. Whether your unit is rent-controlled or not, tenants have the legal right to safe and stable housing.

Long Beach Tenant Protections Include:

• Right to Essential Services: Landlords cannot withhold water, electricity, or gas under any circumstance.
• Right to Privacy: Landlords must provide proper notice and have a legitimate reason to enter your home.
• Right to Repairs: Landlords must address unsafe or unlivable conditions in a timely manner.
• Right to Retaliation-Free Housing: Tenants may not face penalties or harassment for asserting their rights.

Our legal team will stand by your side to ensure your landlord complies with the law and you receive the protection you’re entitled to.
