Unpermitted dwellings. Hazardous electrical wiring. A deteriorating deck. Abandoned vehicles and boats. Occupants resisting repeated enforcement efforts. When traditional code enforcement failed to resolve serious health and safety hazards on a rural California property, court-appointed receivership provided a path forward. Appointed by the Court, #ServiamLaw took control of the property, secured funding, addressed the hazardous conditions, rehabilitated the primary residence, removed unpermitted structures and abandoned vehicles, and ultimately sold the property to a new owner. The result: A once-dangerous public nuisance transformed into a safe, code-compliant property.
