Our Focus

You Should Feel Safe Where You Live

Your home should be a place of safety — not a threat to your health or your family. When landlords, property owners, or management companies fail to maintain safe conditions, the consequences can be devastating: serious injury, lasting illness, displacement, and major financial loss.

The Brinton Firm represents people across Southern California who have been harmed by unsafe homes and buildings. We handle serious injury and loss cases — fire, carbon monoxide, toxic mold, lead poisoning, building collapse, and more — and we fight to hold negligent property owners accountable.

We focus on cases with real consequences. If you or someone you love has been seriously harmed by dangerous property conditions, we want to hear from you.

Legal Help for Unsafe Home & Property Injury Cases

We focus on serious injuries and losses caused by unsafe homes and buildings. Explore the types of cases we handle below.

We focus on serious cases with real consequences — not minor complaints or routine landlord-tenant disputes.

Our Approach

Serious Cases. Real Consequences.

The Brinton Firm is not a general-practice law firm. We focus specifically on serious injuries, illness, displacement, and major losses caused by unsafe homes and buildings. That focus allows us to build deeper expertise, pursue stronger outcomes, and deliver more meaningful results for our clients.

If you have been seriously harmed by dangerous property conditions, you deserve a legal team that understands the full scope of what you’ve been through — and what it will take to make you whole.

Not Sure If Your Case Qualifies?

We focus on cases involving serious harm — not minor maintenance complaints or routine disputes. If you have been injured, become seriously ill, or been forced from your home because of dangerous conditions, there is a strong chance we can help. The best way to find out is a free, no-obligation consultation with our team.

 
Our consultations are free, confidential, and carry no obligation. We’ll listen to your story and tell you honestly whether we think you have a case.

What types of cases does The Brinton Firm handle?
We handle serious injury and loss cases caused by unsafe homes and buildings across Southern California. Our practice areas include fire and explosion injuries, carbon monoxide poisoning, water damage and toxic mold, asbestos and lead exposure, building collapse, unsafe property conditions, defective products, negligent security, slip and fall, bed bugs and pest infestations, and wrongful death. We focus on cases with real, serious consequences — not minor maintenance complaints.
Yes. The majority of our cases involve rental properties — apartments, multi-family buildings, and managed residential complexes across Los Angeles County and Orange County. We represent tenants and residents who have been seriously harmed by conditions their landlord or property manager failed to address. We are exclusively plaintiff-side, meaning we never represent landlords or insurance companies.
In many cases, yes. If a landlord or property owner knew about a dangerous condition — or should have known — and failed to address it, and that condition caused you serious illness or injury, you may have a valid claim. Toxic mold, carbon monoxide leaks, lead paint, and asbestos are among the most common toxic exposure cases we handle. The strength of your case depends on the specific facts, which is why a free consultation is the best first step.
Displacement caused by dangerous property conditions is a serious harm we take on. If you were forced to leave your home because of a fire, carbon monoxide leak, structural failure, or other unsafe condition, you may be entitled to compensation for temporary housing costs, moving expenses, lost belongings, and emotional distress — in addition to any physical injuries. We will evaluate the full scope of your losses.
No. We work on a contingency fee basis, which means you pay nothing unless we win your case. There are no upfront costs, no hourly fees, and no hidden charges. Our consultation is free and carries no obligation. If we take your case, we advance all costs and only recover our fee if we obtain a settlement or judgment for you.
