Many California tenants do not know their legal rights regarding the safety and habitability of rental properties. Specifically, Section 1941.1 of the California Civil Code imposes strong legal obligations on landlords, forcing them to maintain safe living environments. These protections exist regardless of whether the rental agreement explicitly mentions them, reinforcing the idea that tenant safety is a legal priority.
Tenants injured in accidents on a landlord’s property may pursue personal injury claims for compensation. These claims often involve medical expenses that exceed $10,000, permanent disabilities, or severe toxic exposure.

All landlords in California have a duty of care to ensure that the properties they own are reasonably safe and secure. The precise extent of this duty varies based on factors such as the owner’s control over the area, the likelihood of a serious injury occurring, the victim’s status as an invited or uninvited guest, the cost of preventing the injury, and the owner’s knowledge of the hazard that caused the injury.
These factors usually mean landlords are responsible for injuries in common areas, like publicly accessible staircases, play areas, parking lots, gyms, garages, community gathering places, and common area hallways.
