Contact Landlord through Mediation Program Advises the San Francisco Chronicle

By Victoria Pynchon

ADVERTISEMENTS

In the article Mediator can help with PayPal rent payment shift, the Rent Watch column of the San Francisco Chronicle (SF Gate) advises that a landlord's attempt to force renters to pay through PayPal is not strictly legal but,

rather than risk a notice for failure to pay rent based on a complex legal analysis, contacting the landlord through a mediation program would be a safer method to resolve this issue.

 

 
Depending on where you leave, contacting the landlord through a mediator is easier said than done.  In San Francisco, there a community mediation program called Project Sentinel.  Project Sentinel offers landlord-tenant counseling as well as
 
 free dispute resolution services to help tenants and landlords resolve problems that have developed into an actual or potential dispute. These services enable tenants and landlords to avoid expensive and time-consuming alternatives such as litigation.
 
In Los Angeles County, LACBA (the L.A. County Bar Association) offers free mediation services thorugh its Dispute Resolution Services Program.
 
I invite my readers to add their local community mediation services programs wherever they live in the comments section.
