Bornstein & Bornstein: Legal Victory -- Landlord/Tenant Unlawful Detainer Jury Trial

SAN FRANCISCO, June 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The Law Offices of Bornstein & Bornstein, a boutique real estate law firm with offices in San Francisco and Oakland, continues its outstanding record of success in representing real estate investors by securing a trial victory in a heated landlord/tenant dispute.

Before a jury in Judge Bouliane's courtroom in San Francisco, attorney Daniel Bornstein conducted a trial seeking the removal of the occupant from the premises at issue due to her failure to pay rent.

The facts of the case were as follows: The plaintiff entered into a written agreement with the defendant. The defendant failed to pay rent for the month of February 2013. The defendant argued that the landlord was discriminating against her due to her disability and that the landlord had breached the warranty of habitability. The defendant sought a 45 percent reduction in rent and to remain in the premises.

The jury considered the evidence, and in a 12-0 verdict, found on behalf of Bay Property Group, Bornstein's client and the property manager. After years of feeling victimized by the defendant's conduct, the landlord finally recovered control over his San Francisco rent-controlled unit. 

Once again, Bornstein & Bornstein successfully accomplished the goal set by its client, and through the use of the litigation process, preserved a client's real estate investment.
