Buyers and sellers of real estate often do not understand key provisions of purchase contracts for the sale of real property. For example, many real estate purchase contracts contain deposit forfeiture clauses which indicate that a buyer’s deposit money is non-refundable subsequent to a designated milestone and/or subsequent to certain conditions being fulfilled by the seller. Often times the buyer will file a breach of contract action for return of deposit monies based upon alleged ambiguities contained in the contract. Alternatively, sellers of real estate often file breach of contract actions based upon a seller’s failure to close the purchase in accordance with the terms of the contract. Law Office of Brian J. Shin has experience drafting real estate purchase contracts, but it also has experience bringing and defending real estate related lawsuits.
Eviction laws in California can be difficult to understand, especially if you do not have a firm grasp of the state’s housing laws.

In this regard, the Law Office of Brian J. Shin represents both landlords and tenants with respect to various legal disputes.
Our office is well versed in the complex process that must be followed in order to evict commercial and resident tenants. For example, the City of Los Angeles limits a landlord’s ability to increase rents and/or evict tenants from residential units. Even if a landlord is allowed to evict a tenant, often times the landlord is required to provide relocation assistance in the form of thousands of dollars. If a landlord fails to comply with these requirements, he or she may not only be unsuccessful in evicting a tenant, but may also be subjected to monetary damages payable to the tenant.
