Continuing from first review…read more.. Robert A. Miller made me subpoena a former roommate in order to get her to be a witness. This was unnecessary as her email to me was sufficient. Additionally, there are many instances where Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg revealed that they did not examine all of the evidence that I provided. Robert A. Miller kept stressing issues of my pet cat's bodily functions. There was not a single complaint (no email or text, but only something the landlord wanted to add to her retaliatory eviction) of cat urine smell from my two roommates and their partners. I stated that numerous friends of mine have visited and can be witnesses to support that cat urine smell was never an issue. Robert A. Miller responded that the plaintiff Juliet Welch would then call on the other four downstairs tenants as witnesses of cat urine smell. How can downstairs tenants witness what happens in my upstairs apartment when the units are separate and the downstairs tenants and upstairs tenants are not friends and therefore the downstairs tenants are never invited inside the upstairs unit. Moreover, the downstairs tenants have a senior dog and a new puppy, both of whom require puppy pads and potty training. The downstairs tenants also dogsit. There are multiple animals at the 61 Franciscan Way address. A week before my conference court date, Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg required an additional $18,000 in order to represent me, essentially abandoning me. At which point, I asked them to stop work. My new counsel reached a settlement of my staying until the end of December (as opposed to October) and $9000 in new money. The attorney fee agreement clearly states that the $5,000 (the one where I gave $10,000) would ensure the case goes to a jury trial. This is a breach of contract, fiduciary duty, and fraud. Neither Robert A. Miller nor David M. Sternberg went over the retainer fee agreement with me. As a matter of fact, David M. Sternberg did not even sign the retainer fee agreement until August 14th, 2019 after receiving the additional $5,000 (where I gave $10,000). I filed a Ca State Bar Mandatory fee dispute in Feb. 2022. Robert A. Miller answered to serve David M. Sternberg who did not agree to be served until November 2022. Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg ignored the CA State Bar Mandatory fee dispute so that the statute of limitations would expire. Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg responded after I filed small claims because the CA State Bar Dispute was not going anywhere. I called everyday and left messages and CA State Bar only responded once when I received a call back that they will not discipline attorneys for not answering. At the small claims court date, David M. Sternberg twisted the fee dispute to become legal malpractice to claim a one year statute of limitation. I never used the language of legal malpractice in any of my communication with Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg. Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg set themselves up nicely so that they can claim that any court proceeding waives my rights to pursue a fee dispute with Ca State Bar. Robert A. Miller and David M. Sternberg are unscrupulous lawyers who are greedy and take advantage of vulnerable clients.

I am having a difficult time getting my landlord to complete payment of relocation expenses as…read moreagreed upon. I reached out to the Law offices of Robert Miller to see what steps I could take and what to do next since my requests to the landlord are going unanswered. Mr. Miller called me back within 24hrs of me reaching out and was very thorough in explaining what steps I should take before reaching the point of needing to officially engage legal counsel. Legal fees can add up quickly and I appreciated him pointing me in the right direction during our phone consultation. I intend on following his guidance and because of his willingness to help without my retaining him, when the time comes to engage counsel with this matter, I will absolutely be using his services. Thank you Robert!

But, this practice has generated a lot of goodwill in case we have future needs in the areas they specialize in (or come across logical referral opportunities).

I attended a luncheon where one of their lawyers gave a presentation on dun, dun, dun Evictions…read more Yes, I was a landlord for a few years and I had a tenant that was less than stellar. All my previous tenants were outstanding. The latest one, not so much. The presentation was incredibly informative. If you're a landlord in the bay area go to a luncheon or seminar that they are giving. Its so worth it. I found out at the end that they also do process serving at a very reasonable price. So, I wrote my eviction letter up and sent it over to them through their website. I was contacted very shortly by a representative that offered to have a lawyer review the letter at no extra cost. Or, I could have paid a little more to have them use their letter. I opted to use my letter and they said it was fine. Then two days later my tenant was served. It was painless and the tenant moved out at the expected time. It was so convenient and easy. My one complaint is that about a month after all of this, I get a letter in the mail for an additional fee. I wasn't warned there would be a second fee on top of the first process service fee. But I paid it and said what ever, it was worth it just to get the tenant out. Id recommend their presentations and their service to anyone.

Hahaha. A bunch of wannabe attorneys who passed the bar using ChatGPT and quizlet. Saying they…read morepractice law is a disgrace to the law itself. I was rummaging through old docs cleaning out my storage and found this wonderful packet they sent me two years ago. "Notice to permanently perform covenant or quit". Well guess what KTS? Your client had a complex wide insect infestation that ran all the way up 5 story buildings...yet in the lease I signed with your client, it said that the complex is infestation free. We moved out with zero termination fee due to this...SO looks like your client is lying in their legally binding contracts to their customers? Probably should be aware of that, if it's your client. Terrible at your jobs, just like ESSEX property management. I kept smack talking them by the way, you all did absolutely nothing. Also, when you said amenity space is not part of our lease, that was a redirect and reframing that you & ESSEX created; there is advertisement and marketing all over the retail website AND the lease about the amenities "INCLUDED" with said lease...We never claimed amenity "space" was included, we claimed amenities we were "sold" were not available to use, 100% different than amenity "space". Amateur hour contractors your client hires ensured that. A lot of tough talk in this document...zero action came when I repeated the "denigration" you described I was not allowed to say. BY THE WAY, denigration is open to interpretation, it's not black or white. Good luck with your fly-by-night law firm scraping the bottom of the barrel real estate corpos. KTS and it's clients deserve each other.

All I needed was to wait to file my case for another 2 months. From there, I opted to cancel his service and I only got partial of my payment. He and his team (Megan) lacks communication. It takes weeks for either one of them to get back to you. Megan had all my paperwork all wrong. More than half of my claims were missing for the filing and she says "I didn't look through all of them." What am I paying you for?!? Would NOT recommend their service.

To be honest I was not really sure what would happen after a few months of struggling with Lemonade( the insurance company) he finally got them to settle the case with their lawyers. I can't appreciate enough for his dedication for my case. I highly suggest him to anyone and I will use him for my futures legal stuff. Amazing service!!
