Project Sentinel - Santa Clara, California

I was connected with Maria after I had issues with my property management company, Essex, charging a ridiculous move out fee after living in the apartment for five years. Maria helped me to understand what my tenant rights were and actually bought to my attention that what the property management company was doing was illegal and I was able to get my complete deposit back. Maria was very active and communicating with me and followed up very consistently.

I had the pleasure of speaking with Maria about our tenancy in our current unit. She listened to my questions and concerns with a lot of kindness and sincerity and I appreciate her time and counsel greatly. She even followed up via email with some additional resources for me to review. I would definitely recommend Project Sentinel to people with questions related to housing.

I highly recommend those with housing issues with landlords and tenants to contact Project Sentinel. I worked with Maria when I was dealing with a stressful housing situation that the landlord failed to disclose issues with the property before I signed the lease, amongst other things. It forced me to break the lease. Maria was very professional and patient to guide me to resolve the issues. She explained to me clearly my rights and options. They offer free services. I am grateful to move on with the help of Maria.

Project Sentinel really was a big help during some very difficult times. They were friendly, empathetic, and professional. I'm thankful for this group of people who were there to do a job only they could do and did it very well.

I cannot express my gratitude and admiration enough for the exceptional team at Project Sentinel, who have truly gone above and beyond in their dedication and commitment to help me achieve the justice and compensation I rightly deserve in my fair housing discrimination case. As a male victim of discrimination relating to the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) laws, I had initially faced skepticism and oversight. However, Project Sentinel's relentless pursuit of justice, combined with genuine empathy and understanding, has made all the difference in my case.

From the moment I first reached out to Project Sentinel, they were nothing short of phenomenal. They recognized the unique challenges that male victims face in cases involving VAWA laws and were determined to correct the injustices I had suffered. Their team provided me with an unparalleled level of support, consistently displaying a genuine passion for delivering justice to those who need it most, regardless of their gender.

I would like to specifically mention Josie and Art, who played pivotal roles during the mediation process. Their expertise and dedication in navigating the complexities of fair housing discrimination and VAWA laws were instrumental in achieving a positive outcome for my case. Josie and Art's unwavering determination and hard work ensured that my voice was heard, and my interests were fiercely protected throughout the proceedings. They truly went above and beyond my expectations, and I am eternally grateful for their invaluable guidance and support.

Project Sentinel's commitment to gender equality and fair housing was apparent in every aspect of their work. They tackled my case with the same level of fervor and dedication they would have for any other client, regardless of gender. Their tireless efforts to break down stereotypes and challenge the status quo were truly inspiring and set a powerful example for others in the legal field.

I wholeheartedly recommend Project Sentinel to anyone in need of legal assistance, especially those facing fair housing discrimination or gender-based challenges under VAWA laws. Their unwavering commitment to justice, combined with their exceptional team of professionals, ensures that you will receive the best possible representation and outcome. I am beyond grateful to have had Josie, Art, and the entire Project Sentinel team by my side during this challenging journey. Their tireless efforts have not only brought me the financial compensation I deserve but have also paved the way for a more just and equal society. Thank you, Project Sentinel, for your remarkable work and for standing up for what is right

The Project Sentinel for the City of Santa Clara doesn't help landlord at all. I got their number by the Gilroy project Sentinel. I left a phone message on 12/20/2022 asking for help with eviction case for landlord. I got a *69 call back on January 5, 2023. She told me that they don't give legal advice. She told me to go buy a Nolo landlord book to do the eviction. I just want People to know that this company Pretend to help people, so they will get government grants. However, they don't reall help landlord at all. I wish that there is a government website who will monitor these Non profit organizations who claim that they help people, but they don't do Nothing Good for people at all. They shouldn't receive Government grants. They are Fraud!!

I had a very difficult time obtaining my security deposit once I moved out. To make matters even more difficult, I moved to another city and state and the landlord would not acknowledge my calls. I was referred to Project Sentinel and Maria J contacted me and advised me steps I could take and get my refund. On the first run, I sent the landlord a certified letter which the postal service could never deliver as the landlord would not be home. As I got busy with work and a month passed, Maria contacted me again asking me if I had received my deposit. At this point I was already busy with work and given up on my deposit, but because of her call, I went again to the post office and this time sent the landlord a priority mail envelope with my letter and a flyer that Maria sent me about the CA law stating that security deposit must be returned. The priority mail envelope got delivered into the landlord's mailbox with tracking showing as delivered and within a week I received my deposit!
