Custodio & Dubey is excited to announce the addition of Luis Inocente to our prestigious legal team! Luis Inocente is a leading habitability lawyer, dedicated to advocating for tenants’ rights throughout California, with a passion for ensuring safe living conditions for all.
Luis’s commitment to the law was ignited by a vivid and unsettling childhood memory—a cockroach crawling into his ear while he slept. This traumatic event marked the beginning of his resolve to fight for those enduring similar challenges.
Before joining Custodio & Dubey LLP, Luis spent nearly a decade at a premier California tenants’ rights law firm, where he honed his expertise in habitability issues. His early career also included significant work with non-profit organizations defending tenants from eviction.
Luis attended UCLA on a full ride through the Gates Millenium Scholarship and Hispanic Scholarship Fund, and attended Glendale University College of Law at night while working full-time at a prominent tenants’ rights law firm during the day. Luis’s deep-rooted connection to his Zapotec culture and his personal experiences fuel his passion for his field.
“Custodio & Dubey is the right choice! I’m already evaluating a serious habitability case in my first week,” says Luis.
We’re excited to see the impact Luis will make as he achieves outstanding results for our clients here at Custodio & Dubey!
