Tenant Rights Lawyers

Welcome to the online law office of Crow & Rose.

Dave Crow and Solvejg Rose are uniquely prepared, experienced lawyers. We are advocates for our clients on the full range of legal issues facing tenants, consumers and others in San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley and throughout the San Francisco Bay Area.

Best known for an aggressive landlord tenant law practice — which focuses solely on the representation of tenants — the Crow & Rose law firm has years of experience defending unlawful detainer (eviction) actions. We will represent you when you sue your landlord for breach of the warranty of habitability, harassment and owner-move-in (OMI) wrongful eviction. We also help tenants negotiate tenant buyouts with their landlords, but only after a complete analysis of applicable landlord tenant law and discussion of a tenant’s options.

If you are a tenant and have a problem with your landlord, need eviction help, want to sue, or just want to stand up for your tenants rights call us.

Crow & Rose also represents commercial tenants.

We will not represent a landlord seeking to evict a tenant, nor will we represent a master tenant evicting roommates.

Crow & Rose also offers comprehensive legal services including creative problem solving, counseling, advocacy, civil litigation, and successful appellate work.

The Crow & Rose Web site offers information about the law firm and its lawyers; news items of particular interest to tenants and the tenant community in the San Francisco Bay Area; and links to important resources from other tenant lawyers, legal and tenant rights advocates.

Offices conveniently located in downtown San Francisco at the Montgomery MUNI/BART station.

Contact Dave Crow or Solvejg Rose at (415) 552-9060 or complete the form on our Contact the Tenant Lawyers page.

We accept credit cards—Visa, MasterCard and Discover
