逐出令終止

暫停向拖欠租金的租戶或沒錢還房屋贷款的住戶驅逐令,將於  2021 年 7 月 1 日到期。

但是,有關的保護條例截止日期將被延長。在2020 年 3 月 1 日至 2020 年 8 月 30 日期間,拖欠的租金的租戶不能被驅趕。 這筆拖欠的租金將轉為消費者債務。

如租戶因為2019冠狀病毒(COVID-19)造成經濟困難而拖欠租金,但能夠在2021年7 月1 日之前支付2020 年9 月1 日至2021 年6 月31 日之間所欠租金的25%,租戶將能避免被驅趕。剩餘的債務將轉換為消費者債務。

如果您的房東不顧這些保護措施而試圖驅趕您,Open Door Legal 可以為您辯護。注意:如果您收到傳票和投訴,您應該立即尋求幫助,因為您只有 5 個工作天的時間來提交答覆。

消費辯護 而 小額索賠

如果您拖欠的租金已轉為消費者債務,您的房東可能仍會試圖通過起訴您來收取租金。如果欠款總額低於 10,000 美元,您可能會在小額索賠法庭被起訴,該法庭的程序是簡化的。如果欠款總額超過 10,000 美元,您可能會在民事法庭被起訴。如果您被起訴,Open Door Legal 可為您辯護。

破產

如果您無法償還租金或逾期的房屋貸款,破產可能是一個不錯的選擇。
破產可以保留你的住房,同時消除你的債務,但你的信用評分會受影響,
但是,通過諮詢,您的信用可以在兩年內恢復。 Open Door Legal 可以代表您申請破產保護或將您轉介給破產律師。

Ever since childhood, our co-founder Adrian has been dedicated to reducing poverty.

He studied systemic poverty in college and went to work in the field for a few years. Eventually, he had a thesis that legal aid was the most cost-effective way to address poverty in America. He wrote up a business plan and used it to apply to law school. 

The idea was to create the country’s first system of universal access to civil legal representation that ensures everyone can obtain timely, competent legal help for any legal issue, regardless of ability to pay. That had never been done before in the history of the United States.

In law school, he met Virginia, our Programs Director. Together, they co-founded the organization, two weeks after Adrian passed the bar.

When we opened we put a sign in the window, and with just that marketing and almost no other outreach we were overwhelmed with requests for help from people with good cases who had been turned away everywhere else.

Our first year we had revenue of $35,000. We would hand shred documents because a shredder was too expensive. Despite the financial challenges, we were able to work on over 280 cases in everything from housing law to family law to consumer law in the first year alone.

The hours were extreme, the pay was low, and the learning curve was steep. Still, we persisted. We knew that almost everyone we helped was not able to receive services anywhere else. Eventually, we attracted the interest of funders. We tripled our revenue for several years in a row. In 2015, we won the Bay Area Google Impact Challenge, which enabled us to expand even more. In 2019, we secured additional funding from the city that allowed us to open two new centers in the Excelsior and Western Addition.

As of 2020, our staff has grown to 27 full-time employees. We’ve shown that universal access is possible. Now, we plan to scale city-wide, make San Francisco the first city in the country’s history to have universal access to legal help, and become a model for national replication.
