Notice of Code Violation Services
A Notice of Code Violation (NOCV) is a formal citation issued by the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS) when a property is found to violate the Los Angeles Municipal Code. These notices are typically triggered by inspections, complaints, or data-matching programs that identify unpermitted work, illegal conversions, or unsafe conditions. Each NOCV includes a case number, violation description, required corrections, and a compliance deadline.
CCS Inc. provides end-to-end NOCV resolution services. Our compliance team reviews the violation notice, conducts a thorough property inspection to understand the full scope of issues (sometimes there are additional violations beyond what the notice identifies), and develops a correction strategy that is both code-compliant and cost-effective. We present options - sometimes full legalization is the best path, other times partial demolition or alternative compliance methods are more practical.
Our goal is to get your NOCV case closed as quickly and affordably as possible while bringing your property into full compliance. We handle all LADBS communication, permit applications, construction work, and inspection scheduling. We also monitor your case status to ensure it does not escalate to referral for prosecution or additional enforcement actions.

- Comprehensive NOCV case assessment and strategy development
