I've had an amazing experience working with Chris to resolve an eviction matter. If you're a…read morelandlord looking for advice or full representation, I highly recommend hiring Chris. (Also, read the very bottom for my thoughts on working with Chris vs. an eviction mill). Here are a few things that made working with Chris a truly 5-star experience: 1. EXPERTISE AND STRATEGY. From my first contact with Chris, it was clear that he knew the business -- not only from a legal perspective but also as a landlord/property manager. He knew exactly what questions to ask to understand the legal issues, financial issues, and risks involved, but also what was on my mind in terms of priorities and questions, and made me feel like a partner in the decision making around our strategy. 2. CLIENT-FIRST APPROACH. Goes far above and beyond putting himself into the client's shoes. Chris takes time to listen and understand what's important to you. He'll strategize, negotiate, and fight for you as a client. But he truly approaches cases with a holistic perspective aimed at getting you what's most likely the best possible outcome under the circumstances while *also* minimizing your legal costs (i.e., his own billable hours). Why does this matter? As a client trying to resolve a grievance, you can get so narrowly focused on trying to get everything you're owed and winning in court that you can overlook the fact that court battles have a substantial time and money cost. As a result, under many scenarios, the best purely financial decision involves compromising, settling and staying out of court. Chris is more than willing to go to battle in court, but he's amazingly circumspect and forthright with you as a client and will tell you when in his judgment the risks of your case losing in court (or a winning judgment backfiring because the tenant files for bankruptcy) and the cost in billable hours will likely exceed whatever additional amount you could end up financially recovering in court if you win. 3. CLIENT SERVICE, RESPONSIVENESS, DEDICATION. Great client service leaves you feeling like your case is important; that you understand the legal issues, risks, potential outcomes and available options; things happen in a timely manner; that your your attorney is there to help when you have doubts or questions. Chris was amazing in all regards. He engaged immediately and with urgency to understand my case, ramp up, review documents, strategize, and within 48 hours of our first contact was engaging opposing counsel. During the several weeks we worked together, he was incredibly responsive and timely, whether by phone, email or text. Maybe I caught him at a time when his case load was light, I don't know for sure, but I'm grateful. I didn't ask Chris to work nights and weekends on my case, but I'm truly grateful that he did when necessary for a few hours on my case when it was critical to get across the finish line and reach a settlement. CLOSING REMARKS Two final thoughts: 1. Before I signed on with Chris, I spoke to few other well-known LA area eviction law firms -- those high-volume eviction mills with a fixed fee arrangement. When I spoke to those other law firms, I knew they weren't right for me. You start out speaking to a senior partner on the phone but once you sign on with them, your case gets assigned to a junior attorney who you now have to re-brief -- assuming you get a chance to speak with them at all. I've read stories about how hard it was to reach your attorney or even find out who was even assigned to your case at all! I've read stories about how clients showed up at court having never met their attorney and having just 15-30 minutes to discuss the case before entering the courtroom. Chris is the 100% the opposite and it was *exactly* what I was looking for. When you call, you're reaching Chris. When you email, you're reaching Chris. No call centers or front desk operators or paralegals. No having to brief and re-brief people hoping they'll know something about what's going on with your case. With Chris, you may end up paying more in legal costs but IMO working with Chris is a much better client experience and I feel fairly certain led to a better outcome in my case. To me, it's a no brainer to work with Chris, but as with many things YMMV. 2. A great attorney help get you the best results in the given circumstances, and in my opinion, that's exactly what Chris helped us get. As often happens in legal matters, as a landlord, I didn't end up with what I felt I rightfully deserved in terms of outcome -- but this is because of unrealistic expectations (hopes?) under the circumstances, not because of Chris's efforts and skill. Chris 100% helped me reach the best possible *realistic* outcome.

I had mentioned to them numerous time that I will be out of country for a family funeral and need the trail to be rescheduled... I have yet to receive a reasonable response to my request. When I called them, no one answered or called me back... his response to that was letting me know "they can't call back if you don't leave a message"... disregarding the fact that I called at 1pm and someone should've answered? Also, when I was served the subpoena...the processor came into my garage while my mother was unloading groceries.. they were made aware of this situation. It just seems like shady business all around. I don't have a choice but to deal with them.. but boy, if you can, do your research. I forgot to mention the part of Stan Denis threatening me, ha.

Hired him to work on a real estate problem. I was to receive funds from a sale of a property. The…read morecase was settled. I was told I owed $8000 for my last invoice which I paid. He agreed in an email he sent me. 6 month later the property sold and I was to receive funds from the sale per court order. When the property sold he then gave me another invoice stating I owed him $10,000. According to the invoice he was charging for a court appearance which the appearance was him relived himself from the case because it was settled months before the other. The other changes he claimed were emails and phone calls. There were no emails sent to him or phone calls once the case was settle. When I asked to see the emails and proof of the phone calls. He instead told escrow to hold the money until I signed a an agreement that I owe him that money. Instead of hold the amount he claims is owed to him. He had escrow hold the whole amount owed to me which was three times what he claimed was owed to him. Since I could not afford an attorney and I would not sign a that agreement. The money sat in a trust for months until I received a judgement he was able to get without me even being notified there was a hearing. The lawyer is a greedy thief. He knew he was paid in full the email he sent stated he was paid already. Six moths later when the property sold and i was to receive my money he was greedy and wanted more free money. The guy is a crook. If wanted i can show you the proof he was paid already just let me know. Everything I have said is true and I can prove it. Be careful if you hire him he is just looking for money without really looking out for your best interest
