LEARN MOREReaching out to a lawyer can feel overwhelming, especially when your family is already dealing with unsafe housing, illness, or the aftermath of an accident. We work to make the process clear from the beginning so you know what to expect.
From the moment you call, a caring and experienced member of our team will take the time to talk with you about your living conditions. We’ll answer your questions and ask about any documentation you may have. Then, we carefully review the facts, quickly, to determine if you have a case.
As part of confirming your case, we may visit your property, virtually or in person, to see exactly what you’ve been living through. Once we confirm that you have a case, you sign a retainer with us on contingency. No upfront cost to you. We only get paid if we win.
While we work on your behalf, we build the full picture of what happened: the evidence, the timeline, and the impact this has had on you and your family. This may include government, expert, and firm-led inspections.
We file your case and take it as far as it needs to go, through discovery, depositions, mediation, and trial if necessary, to hold the responsible party accountable.
Once your case is resolved, Castelblanco Law Group fights to secure the maximum compensation possible on your behalf. With a proven track record of holding negligent landlords accountable, we make sure you walk away with the outcome, and the fresh start, you deserve.

Many of the families who come to our firm have spent months dealing with cockroaches, bed bugs, rodents, lead exposure, mold-like health concerns, or harassment from a landlord who refused to take responsibility. They are not only dealing with bad housing. They are dealing with stress, health problems, missed work, fear for their children, and uncertainty about what to do next. We take those experiences seriously and work to make sure every client feels heard, informed, and respected.
Castelblanco Law Group represents tenants and families in California cases involving unsafe apartment conditions, toxic exposure, carbon monoxide risks, personal injury, and wrongful death. We help clients evaluate whether they may have a legal claim, understand what evidence matters, and take the next steps with a bilingual legal team that can communicate clearly throughout the case.
A successful result cannot undo everything a family has lived through, but it can help cover medical care, relocation costs, lost income, property loss, and other serious damages. Many of our clients have used their recoveries to move into safer housing, support their children, and rebuild stability. That practical impact is a central part of the work we do.

Cockroaches aren’t just a nuisance. They carry diseases like salmonella and E. coli and can trigger asthma attacks. If your landlord doesn’t hire an exterminator to help address the issue, call your local health department to report the infestation.Once you’ve filed a complaint with your local health department, they’ll investigate by sending a health inspector to the property. The inspector will assess the tenant’s complaint and check for any health violations. If violations are found, the inspector will prepare a report detailing the issues and the landlord’s deadline to address them. This report is then sent to the landlord. The landlord is given a set timeframe to rectify the violations. Once fixed, the landlord can request a re-inspection. If the violations persist, the health department can impose fines on the landlord.
The landlord is obligated to ensure the rental unit is habitable prior to the key handover. This includes addressing any issues that pose significant health and safety risks, as well as repairing conditions not in compliance with state and local building and health codes, under the implied warranty of habitability. If the landlord fails to meet these standards, legal action may be necessary. A tenants’ rights lawyer can help you navigate this process, filing a claim against the landlord and advocating for compensation on your behalf.
If your Family has suffered from pest infestations, or injuries due to landlord neglect. you may be entitled to compensation — request a free case review today.
