Subject: Concerns Regarding Lease Agreement Provision Confessing Judgment in Violation of Law Dear [Landlord's Name], I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to discuss a specific provision in our lease agreement that I believe may be in violation of the law here in Los Angeles, California. As tenants, it's crucial for both parties involved to ensure we are following all legal obligations to maintain a fair and secure rental arrangement. Upon reviewing our lease agreement, I came across a clause related to confessing judgment regarding any potential claims arising from our rental agreement. The provision states that if there is a dispute or disagreement, I, as a tenant, would be required to confess judgment, which would effectively waive my right to defend myself against any alleged violations of the lease agreement. It has come to my attention that such a provision may be illegal and unenforceable in the state of California, specifically in Los Angeles. Under California law, there are strict regulations protecting the rights of tenants, and provisions that attempt to waive rights through confessing judgment may be deemed unconscionable or against public policy. As a responsible tenant, I strive to adhere to our lease agreement and all its lawful provisions. However, it is essential to maintain a mutually fair and legally compliant rental relationship. Therefore, I kindly request that we review and amend this specific provision to ensure it aligns with the legal requirements and protects both our interests. I propose that we consult with legal professionals or seek guidance from qualified experts to revise the provision in question. By doing so, we can maintain a lease agreement that fully respects the rights and obligations of both parties while complying with Los Angeles and California's rental laws. I value our landlord-tenant relationship and believe this matter can be resolved amicably. I kindly request your prompt attention to this issue and your willingness to address it in a timely manner. Should you require any additional information or clarification, please do not hesitate to reach out to me. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. I look forward to resolving this matter swiftly, ensuring our lease agreement is both legal and conducive to a harmonious tenancy.
