Steven Flaxman Featured on CBS Colorado: Fighting for Tenants’ Rights Against Negligent Landlords
When landlords neglect their legal responsibilities, tenants suffer. In a recent CBS Colorado interview, attorney Steven Flaxman shed light on a troubling landlord-tenant case, emphasizing the critical role of legal advocacy in protecting renters from unsafe living conditions.
A Tenant’s Nightmare: Mold, Infestations, and Neglect
The CBS Colorado segment featured a Broomfield resident who endured months of living in a mold-infested apartment riddled with bug infestations—all stemming from a persistent leak. Despite repeated complaints to her landlord, the conditions remained unaddressed, putting her health and well-being at risk.
That’s where Flaxman Law Group stepped in. Steven Flaxman, a dedicated tenant rights attorney, highlighted the legal obligations landlords have in providing habitable living spaces. He underscored how tenants facing similar situations can take action and seek legal remedies when landlords fail to uphold their responsibilities.
Your Rights as a Tenant: What You Need to Know
Many tenants are unaware of their legal protections when dealing with negligent landlords. As Steven Flaxman explained in the interview, renters do not have to endure unsafe conditions. If your landlord refuses to address serious habitability concerns—such as mold, leaks, pest infestations, or other violations—you have legal options, including:
✅ Withholding rent or seeking repairs under your state’s warranty of habitability laws
✅ Documenting complaints to create a legal record of the neglect
✅ Filing a lawsuit or seeking legal counsel to demand proper living conditions
