Fair Housing Violations

California Fair Housing Claims Lawyers

Most people take for granted that they can live wherever they can afford. Since the passage of the Fair Housing Act and other civil rights laws, it has been illegal to discriminate in the sale, financing, or rental of housing because of race, color, religion, sex, handicap, familial status, or national origin. The attorneys at Litt, Estuar, Harrison & Kitson, LLP, in Los Angeles, California, are experienced in pursuing civil rights class actions and significant individual cases involving unlawful housing discrimination.

Influential Fair Housing Lawyers

Housing discrimination can be committed by individual managers and landlords, management companies, and local, state, and federal agencies that violate provisions of the Fair Housing Act. Our lawyers have extensive experience handling class action lawsuits related to violations of the Fair Housing Act.

Our firm recently won a unanimous 22.5 million dollar verdict in a Fair Housing Act case against the City of Long Beach on behalf of two plaintiffs who were unlawfully prevented from opening residential care facilities for the elderly suffering from Alzheimer’s disease. We have also handled or are involved in Fair Housing Act cases involving illegal fees charged to minorities by the City of Los Angeles, cases related to discrimination in public housing, and the failure to rent or sell real estate to minorities.

Litt, Estuar, Harrison & Kitson, LLP has the experience to manage complex Fair Housing Act and other housing cases such as Section 8 and slum housing class action litigation. Our firm is committed to protecting the rights of Californians to access housing without unlawful discrimination. We have the resources to bring class action cases to trial and the skill to see them through the appellate process. If, through that process, we are able to fully enforce the law to create systemic changes, that is our most significant victory.

Please note that under most circumstances we cannot take individual housing discrimination cases unless there are large monetary damages associated with the discrimination.  Most of the housing discrimination cases we litigate are class actions, meaning that many people have been affected by the discrimination.
