Legal Support Built for the Way Property Managers Work

From unlawful detainers to lease forms and rent-control compliance, Blake Law Firm gives California property managers one dependable legal team for the issues that come up across your portfolio, every month.

What We Handle

The day-to-day legal work of managing residential and commercial properties, handled by attorneys who also litigate these issues in court.

Unlawful Detainers & Evictions

Notice review, filing, service, hearings and lockout coordination, with clear status updates on every file.

Leases, Notices & Forms

California-compliant lease templates, addenda, and 3-, 30-, 60- and 90-day notices, kept current as the law changes.

Rent Cap & Just-Cause Compliance

Guidance on the Tenant Protection Act (AB 1482) and local ordinances, including rent increases and terminations.

Security Deposits & Move-Out Disputes

Itemization, deductions and responses to demand letters and small claims before they become larger problems.

Habitability, Fair Housing & Accommodations

Repair-and-habitability claims, reasonable-accommodation requests, and fair housing complaints.

Your Own Business

DRE licensing questions, management agreements with owners, HOA management contracts, and entity matters.

Optional Ongoing Support

We're happy to help one matter at a time. For property management companies that want more consistent support, we also offer an ongoing arrangement, so you have a legal team that already knows your properties when something comes up. Here's how it works:

01
Get to Know Your Portfolio

If you choose ongoing support, we start by reviewing your properties, jurisdictions, current forms and recurring issues.

02
One Point of Contact

Send matters to a dedicated contact at the firm and get a same-day response.

03
Predictable Fees

Flat fees for uncontested unlawful detainers and standard notices, so you know the cost up front.

The Litigator's Advantage

Drafted With the Courtroom in Mind

Most eviction and deposit cases are won or lost on the notice, the lease and the paper trail. Because our attorneys litigate landlord-tenant disputes, we draft your forms and review your notices with the courtroom in mind, which helps you avoid dismissals, delays and do-overs.
