Are you a tenant in California? Do you know your rights when it comes to housing? In this video, we'll break down some of the most important tenant rights in California, including rent control, evictions, and security deposits. Don't miss out on this essential information, subscribe now."

Hi, I'm Attorney Anthony Girgis, a California licensed attorney with over a decade of experience practicing law in this great state. As a tenant in California, it's important to understand your rights and protections under the law. Let's start with rent control.

In California, some cities and counties have rent control ordinances that limit how much landlords can raise the rent each year. If you live in a rent-controlled unit, your landlord can only increase the rent by a certain percentage each year, as specified by local law.

Next, let's talk about evictions. California law provides strong protections for tenants facing eviction, including the right to a notice period and the right to challenge the eviction in court. If you receive an eviction notice, it's important to act quickly and seek legal advice.

Finally, let's talk about security deposits. Under California law, landlords can only charge a certain amount for a security deposit and must return it within a certain timeframe after you move out. If your landlord withholds your deposit or charges you for damages you didn't cause, you may have legal recourse.

These are just a few examples of the important tenant rights and protections in California. If you have questions or concerns about your housing situation, don't hesitate to seek legal advice. And remember, knowledge is power.
