Landlord–Tenant · Pasadena roster

By count, the practice areas most often listed by Pasadena attorneys are litigation (411), business law (394), employment (331), personal injury (268) and estate planning (213). A count of listings, not a measure of skill.

2 of the 2,222 have claimed and verified their record here; every other listing is the official record as published.

For 107 of the 2,222 active attorneys in Pasadena, the registry holds a firm website published in a language other than English; by count, Spanish (93), Chinese (17), French (5) and Armenian (5). That describes the website, not the attorney's own ability; an attorney's profile says when they have confirmed a language themselves.

Reading the roster in Pasadena. Unlawful detainer practice is fast and procedural, so look for attorneys who handle evictions in your county's dedicated UD departments weekly, whichever side you are on. Tenants should ask about fee-shifting clauses in the lease, local rent-ordinance defenses, and legal-aid options given the short response windows; landlords should ask about notice drafting, most lost UD cases fail on defective notices.
