The records that decide real estate disputes
- The contract, lease, or escrow papers — the dispute lives inside these documents.
- Every notice, with its date — real estate deadlines run in days, and the notice starts the clock.
- Photos of conditions or defects — dated, before repairs.
- All correspondence — landlord, HOA, agent, or contractor, kept in one place.
- Payment records — rent, deposits, and assessments, with proof.
How a participating law firm may review your situation
After you submit a free case review, your request is delivered to a participating California law firm — participating firms are paid advertisers, and each firm independently determines whether it can assist you. The firm may contact you to learn more and explain how California claims generally work. There is no cost to request a review, and submitting the form does not create an attorney-client relationship.
What information to prepare
- The property address and type
- Your role (tenant, landlord, owner, buyer, etc.)
- Any lease, contract, or deed
- Any notices, demand letters, or court papers
- Dates of key events and deadlines
- Photos or records related to the dispute
Why timing matters
Real estate matters can move fast — an eviction (unlawful detainer) gives only a few days to respond, mechanic's liens have strict filing deadlines, and contract and dispute deadlines add up. The sooner a participating firm can review your situation, the more options may be available. This is general information, not legal advice; a participating firm can explain the deadlines that apply to you.
