Fremont Renters: Your Rights Under Attack—Fight Back

Living in Fremont and dealing with rental headaches? Some landlords bend the rules. Others break them completely. The Law Firm for Tenant Rights, Inc. fights for renters like you. No one should face unfair evictions, crazy rent hikes, or bad housing conditions alone.

Who We Are? Why Do Fremont Renters Need Us?

We help renters in Fremont. This city keeps growing. With almost 226,208 people, housing demand stays high. The location is great—near Silicon Valley but with much more breathing room. Rent, though, keeps climbing. The median gross rent in Fremont is $2,905 per month. Many people spend more than 30% of their income on housing. That’s too much. A home should feel safe, not stressful.

We take tenant rights seriously. Landlords have responsibilities, but they don’t always follow them. If your rent jumps unfairly, your home has safety problems, or an eviction looms, we step in. Knowing your rights changes everything.

Landlords Cross the Line—We Push Back

Rent Hikes Beyond the Legal Limit

California law limits rent increases. A landlord can’t raise it more than 5% plus inflation or 10%, whichever is lower. Some try anyway. We track these cases. If your landlord charges more, we take action fast.

Evictions Without a Legal Cause

Some landlords want tenants out for no reason. They send letters, make up excuses, and try to pressure people into leaving. We don’t let that slide. Evictions need legal grounds. If they lack them, we fight back.

Leases Packed With Hidden Traps

Leases should be clear. Some hide unfair terms, and others include illegal fees. We review every line, catching tricks before they trap you. Signing a lease without checking is a bad idea.

Housing in Shambles—And Landlords Ignoring It

Landlords must keep homes livable. That means working plumbing, no mold, and safe conditions. Some ignore requests for repairs, and others fix things too slowly. We push them to act fast.

Security Deposits, Fake Fees, and Other Landlord Scams

Rent fights. Security deposit games. Fake late fees. We’ve seen it all. Landlords don’t always play fair. We ensure they do. If they break the rules, we hold them accountable.

Harassment, Threats, and Illegal Lockouts—Not on Our Watch

Harassment takes many forms. Unannounced visits. Threats. Illegal lockouts. None of it is okay. If your landlord crosses the line, we step in. They stop, or we take legal action.

Fremont Tenants Ask, We Answer

My rent went up too much—what now?

California’s Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) limits rent hikes. Some landlords ignore the rules. We check the numbers. If they break the law, we challenge them.

I can’t pay rent. Do I have options?

Fremont renters have options. Some qualify for rental assistance, and others need legal help to negotiate a deal. Eviction isn’t always the only outcome, and we help find solutions.

My landlord won’t fix anything. Can I stop paying?

California law requires 24-hour notice before entry. Emergencies are the only exception. If a landlord ignores this rule, keep records. Repeated violations call for legal action.

My landlord entered my place without notice. What should I do?

I feel harassed by my landlord. Can I fight back?

Harassment isn’t part of renting. Threats, illegal lockouts, or intimidation break the law. We gather proof. We push back. No one should live in fear.

Can I negotiate my lease in Fremont?

Yes. Everything is up for discussion: rent, fees, and lease terms. Before signing, we help spot unfair conditions. No one should get locked into a bad deal.
