CA – Neighbor’s tenant fired a gun into my occupied condo bedroom – seeking contingency attorney for property damage / negligence claim
CA – Neighbor’s tenant fired a gun into my occupied condo bedroom – seeking contingency attorney for property damage / negligence claim
I am looking for guidance on finding a plaintiff-side attorney who will work on a contingency basis.
In January 2026, while I was asleep in my bedroom, a tenant in the next unit fired a ghost gun inside their home. The bullet went through the shared wall and entered my bedroom, striking my bed while I was asleep.
Law enforcement responded, documented the incident, seized the firearm, and criminal charges were filed under Penal Code 246.3(a). I have the police report and photographs.
As a result the shared wall was compromised.
I am living with a friend and displaced from my unit. I incurred inspection costs (structural engineer). I have ongoing repair and loss-of-use expenses. I am commuting \~90 miles daily due to displacement.
The neighboring property owner has acknowledged the incident in writing but is attempting to have the tenant “pay out of pocket” rather than route through insurance.
I am exploring potential negligence and premises liability claims against the property owner and possibly the HOA (shared wall / failure to inspect after notice).
Does anyone have recommendations for Sacramento-area plaintiff attorneys who handle property damage / negligence cases on contingency? Or suggestions on how best to locate one?
I have documentation and am organized.
