Our Process

From First Contact to Resolution

The firm’s approach to resolving property injury cases involves several key steps:

icon3

1. Free Consultation

We start with a no-cost, confidential review of your case. Tell us what happened, and our experienced Long Beach property injury lawyers will quickly determine if a property owner’s, manager’s, or building operator’s negligence caused your injury.

icon

2. Evidence Collection

We handle everything: gathering maintenance records, repair requests, photos of the dangerous condition, medical bills, incident reports, and witness statements to build an ironclad case proving negligence and liability.

icon

3. Negotiation

Armed with strong evidence, we negotiate aggressively with the landlord, property management company, and their insurance providers to secure a fair settlement that covers your medical bills, lost wages, pain, and suffering.

4. Litigation

If they refuse to offer a fair amount, our trial-tested property injury lawyers are fully prepared to file suit and fight for you in Los Angeles County Superior Court (Long Beach Courthouse, 415 W. Ocean Blvd). We’ve taken on large property owners, management companies, and insurers — and won.

No upfront fees. No hidden costs. You only pay if we win your case.

At The Brinton Firm, we represent injury victims — never property owners, management companies, or insurance companies. We offer multilingual support and are ready to stand up for your rights in Long Beach. Contact our Long Beach unsafe home injury lawyers today and let us turn a responsible party’s negligence into the compensation you deserve. All unsafe home injuries we handle.

Common Causes

  • Electrical fires and faulty wiring — Long Beach has a large stock of pre-1960s apartment buildings where outdated electrical panels and aluminum wiring are common fire hazards
  • Carbon monoxide poisoning — aging furnaces, gas appliances, and attached garages in older Long Beach rentals create CO exposure risks when landlords skip maintenance
  • Toxic mold and water intrusion — proximity to the coast and older plumbing systems make mold growth common in Long Beach apartments, especially near the Port
  • Structural hazards and ceiling collapses — deferred maintenance in Long Beach’s older multi-family housing stock leads to ceiling failures, rotted flooring, and staircase collapses
  • Negligent security injuries — assaults in parking structures, lobbies, and common areas of Long Beach apartment complexes where landlords failed to maintain lighting, locks, or security cameras
  • Bed bugs and pest infestations — Long Beach’s dense rental market and older building stock make pest infestations a recurring habitability issue
“Our goal is simple — to recover every dollar you deserve.”

Types of Cases

Types of Unsafe Property Injury Cases We Handle in Long Beach

Faulty Electrical Equipment

Fire, Smoke & Electrical Hazards

Long Beach's older apartment buildings — many built before 1960 — frequently have outdated wiring, faulty electrical panels, and inadequate smoke detection. When a landlord's negligence causes a fire, explosion, or electrical burn injury, you have the right to recover for your medical bills, lost income, and pain and suffering.
Ceiling & Roof Collapses

Structural Hazards & Building Collapse

Ceiling collapses, rotted staircases, broken railings, and crumbling balconies are common in Long Beach's aging rental housing stock — particularly in the downtown and Bixby Knolls neighborhoods. When a structural failure injures you, we hold the property owner accountable.

Negligent Security Injuries

Assaults, robberies, and sexual assaults in Long Beach apartment complexes, parking structures, and common areas are often preventable when landlords maintain proper lighting, functioning locks, and working security cameras. If you were attacked on a property where security was inadequate, we can help.
