Founded in 1981, Wartelle, Weaver & Schreiber is dedicated to helping clients involved in real estate and landlord and tenant disputes, wage and hour claims, mold litigation and other civil litigation.
The firm got its start by bringing the first wrongful eviction actions using the San Francisco Rent Ordinance. Building on that success, the firm has developed a reputation for creative, innovative theories and a willingness to fight hard for clients.
In the landlord and tenant arena, the firm has represented clients in all kinds of individual cases and class actions, including challenging threats to rent protections, lock outs, evictions and challenging ordinances detrimental to tenants. The firm’s advocacy extends to clients involved in other real estate disputes, including mold cases, title disputes, easement issues, and broker fraud.
The firm has filed several class actions in order to vindicate the rights of large groups of individuals. The actions have included claims for unfair business practices, nuisance, breach of warranty of habitability, and wage and hour violations. We have achieved excellent results on behalf of our clients, including verdicts and settlements of over $1,000,000.
Wartelle, Weaver & Schreiber are also strong advocates for clients in wage and hour cases, representing workers fired for whistle blowing and other violations of public policy.
When appropriate, we accept cases on a “contingency fee” basis; that is, we recover our fees only if you succeed in your case.
The firm has staff fluent in Spanish.
