Firm Information
Overview
At Shakhnis Law - Tenants Rights & Injury Law Firm, based in Los Angeles, California, we have dedicated over two decades to advocating for tenants and homeowners who have endured significant adversity due to unsafe living conditions. Our areas of focus include tenant rights, addressing unsafe and unhealthy housing conditions, child lead poisoning, carbon monoxide exposure, fraudulent and illegal evictions, and addressing dangerous conditions in apartment buildings. We also handle cases involving toxic HVAC ducts and bedbug-infested housing. Each case is approached with a thorough understanding of the law and a deep sense of empathy for our clients’ distress.
We are committed to upholding the rights of individuals and families who find themselves in dire housing situations. Our legal support extends to families exposed to hazardous conditions such as lead-based paint, carbon monoxide and pest infestations, as well as those suffering from illegal evictions and unsafe housing. Our mission is clear: to provide a voice for the vulnerable and seek justice on their behalf.
Our track record speaks volumes about our commitment and success in this field. Notable settlements include a $2,900,000 award for tenants in a multifamily apartment complex living with severe maintenance issues and a $2,000,000 settlement for tenants residing in similarly challenging conditions. In another significant case, we secured a $1,900,000 settlement for a family whose children suffered from lead poisoning and its consequential neurocognitive impairments.
Our founding attorney, Philip Shakhnis, has built a reputation for his meticulous and compassionate legal representation, helping hundreds of clients achieve justice and significant settlements. His role as a leading attorney in this niche is underscored by his relentless pursuit of landlords and property managers who neglect their duties and responsibilities. Whether it’s a case of mold exposure, pest infestation or wrongful eviction, our team is equipped to handle it with the utmost professionalism and dedication.
At Shakhnis Law - Tenants Rights & Injury Law Firm, we don’t just represent our clients; we advocate for a safer, healthier living environment for all tenants. Our commitment to justice is unwavering, as we continue to fight for those who cannot fight for themselves. If you or someone you know is facing challenges with their housing conditions, we encourage you to reach out. Together, we can strive for a resolution that restores peace and safety in your home.

Verified ClientHired Law firm 2016-2018Outstanding Attorney - A True Lifesaver! Philip is an absolutely amazing attorney, and I cannot recommend him highly enough. My family experienced a terrifying ordeal when we all became sick from toxic mold, and our baby nearly died, requiring critical care in the ICU. Philip was instrumental in proving that the mold was directly responsible for our baby's severe illness. Beyond his exceptional legal skills, Philip handled our case with incredible grace and etiquette. In a time of immense stress and fear, his compassionate and professional demeanor was a true comfort. He fought tirelessly for us, and we are forever grateful for his expertise and dedication. Philip is not just an attorney; he's a lifesaver.

Hired Law firm 2023-2025Shakhnis Law did an amazing job with our lawsuit. They were considerate, organized, and great communicators (with the Spanish speaking suit members as well). Tara Mitcheltree took a lead on our case and I loved working with her. She explained our options very well and was always available to answer our questions or address concerns. They did a great job representing our group, and if I ever have issues with a landlord again, I will reach out to Shakhnis. If you’re considering a suit, you should at the very least reach out to them!
