Client Stories Told By Students Joshua

I represented undocumented parents with four children, one with autism. Property management said she missed payments, but we proved with the rent ledger she was current. This was a complete defense to the UD action, leading to a dismissal of the lawsuit.

I represented a Hispanic family who had lived in the same apartment complex for 30 years, having paid rent every single month. The landlord used a pretextual, invalid excuse to sue for eviction claiming that the client’s son, who was 2 years old when they moved in, was not on the lease.

The USD Legal Clinic is absolutely an essential source for the San Diego community. It is the work that the staff of the USD Legal Clinic do every day, case by case, that serves as a crucial means of preventing homelessness.

Before we got involved, there was a default judgment entered and a sheriff’s lockout was imminent. We prevailed in staying the lockout and setting aside the default judgment. I was able to negotiate the dismissal of the entire eviction case.
