Contact a San Francisco real estate litigation attorney, negotiator, or mediator at Steven Adair MacDonald & Associates, P.C., for a free 20-minute consultation to discuss how we can help you with your specific problem. Our attorneys have a combined 43 years of real estate and landlord-tenant law experience. We have handled every configuration of landlord-tenant case in San Francisco and the Bay Area.

Litigation

Litigation may begin when the owner seeks an eviction notice, or it may involve a tenant’s lawsuit for breach of habitability, retaliation, illegal rent increases, or wrongful eviction. The San Francisco landlord-tenant litigation attorneys of Steven Adair MacDonald & Associates, P.C., are experienced in the courtroom and fully prepared to take your case to court.

Our San Francisco real estate and eviction litigation attorneys have been successful in getting owners’ insurance companies to defend and settle cases, resulting in lower cost and less trouble for the landlord. We will review your insurance contract to see if we may be able to arrange for your insurance carrier to take on the burden of litigation.

We also help our clients find legal solutions to construction-related and breach of contract cases.

Negotiation

A client who begins with litigation in mind may soon discover that negotiation is a better, less costly strategy to achieve a successful result or minimize a negative result. In landlord-tenant or real estate law negotiation, our attorneys represent one side of the complaint, advocating strongly for our client’s position. This may occur before a settlement judge or in a private mediation session with a neutral mediator.

Mediation

Steven Adair MacDonald often acts as a neutral facilitator in mediation sessions, with or without other attorneys present. He has extensive experience in mediation and has served as a pro tempore judge for the Superior Court of San Francisco in pretrial settlement conferences. Why spend a lot of money and wait a year or more for a trial when you can use this more civilized process to reach a reasonable agreement today?
