Legal Answers
35 Questions Answered
Q. My landlord lives above me and makes excess noise daily. I have complained several times. They’ve acknowledged the noise
A: I would say that you would have a case for harassment and constructive eviction, amoung other possible claims. You seem to have the ability to measure and record the ambient sound from their apartment to record the chronic noncompliance. You should consult with a landlord tenant attorney. Good luck.
Q. My building was bought at auction and I had a living agreement with my last landlord to rent now my new landlord is
A: Since you have a lease (written lease) in effect from your prior landlord, then the new landlord may find it difficult to evict you from the premises. The new landlord will have to show that you are not paying rent, you are causing a nuisance, you are breaching the lease or the owner wants to use the premises for their own use or that of their immediate family. You will need to consult with a landlord tenant attorney to fully understand your situation and your best course of action.
Q. A F1 student with valid status is elegible for Medi-Cal. Use the benefit can bring problems? Like to get a green card?
A: Most universities and colleges offer their own health insurance plans specifically designed for international students. These plans generally meet visa requirements and can be a good option for F1 students. Alternatively, F1 students can also purchase private health insurance plans from various insurance companies. These plans offer varying levels of coverage and costs. This may be the best way to avoid any problems.
