BEWARE... Hiring the Kerendian Law office for a real estate matter turned out to be the biggest…read moremistake. When I hired the firm, I had a hazard on my property. So there was some urgency to get my case resolved. The problem was that my lawyer, Tom, waited WEEKS to substitute into my case, which obviously prevented any filings and caused delay. The owner Shab's response, "We aren't breaking any laws", then proceeded to become angry and begin yelling at me and then threatened to quit just for my bringing it up the valid issue. It gets worse. After the firm finally got around to filing paperwork for a default, the owner Shab reaches out and congratulates me for the request being entered or granted. The problem was that the court documents didn't reflect that and Shab figured the clerk erred. But when I asked him to check with the court to verify, Shab refused and said we would be fine. Then months later at our next hearing, my attorney finds himself arguing with the judge after being informed that the firm had erred once again and our request had indeed been rejected. But it was all for not. Turns out that so much time and energy and tens of thousands of dollars of my money had been wasted all because the Kerendian firm didn't do their due diligence and failed to serve all the proper parties in my case!! Then when I addressed yet another egregious error by the firm, the owner Shab refused to own up to their actions. Instead, the firm played the victim and claimed they felt like they were being "attacked" and requested for the judge to be subbed out of my case. So basically the firm ran for the hills all after I paid it nearly $20,000 dollars for a case supposedly in default. With all the damaged caused to my case by the Kerendian firm, as well as it overcharging me, it refused to do the honorable thing and return the money I requested. So my family is taking the firm to court for negligence and malpractice. We also fittingly filed an official complaint with the California State Bar. Learn from my family's experience and be sure to do a thorough background check on a potential attorney - including past court records. Good luck! I am an Air Force veteran and this is my true and sworn testimony.

I could not understand why it would not be a clear claim under the circumstances. Jacob K. Kashani personally got back to me and gave me a quick, simple, and honest explanation of how the process works. Even though it turned out to be a case he would not be able to help me with, he still took the time to explain things clearly and give me advice on the situation. To me, that says a lot. He even signed off by telling me that if I had any other questions, I could contact him again and he would be happy to help answer them. That is a first-class act. It is rare to find someone who will take the time to help, even when there is nothing in it for them. Jacob clearly cares about what he does and the people he speaks with. Five stars all the way.

Outstanding Legal Representation by Lurie & Kramer!…read more Facing a complex defamation and libel lawsuit, I was understandably anxious about choosing the proper Attorney to handle my case. I had no clue where to start. Since I subscribe to legal services provided by Legal Zoom, I decided to contact one of the Attorney affiliates I had hired in the past. Unfortunately, in this case, the old adage "you get what you pay for" applied. The Attorney assigned to my case was unable to articulate their strategy in my case clearly and there was absolutely no proactive follow-up informing me on the progress of my case. Needless to say, I was unhappy and started searching for another Attorney to represent me. Over the past several years, I heard AM 870 talk show radio host, Dennis Prager, extolling the virtues of his experience with Attorney Barak Lurie of the Lurie & Kramer law firm so I contacted them. I'm so glad I did! From the moment I engaged their services, I was met with a level of personal attention and professionalism that is truly unparalleled. The team at Lurie & Kramer immediately put my mind at ease with their deep understanding of the law and strategic approach. They expertly utilized the Anti-SLAPP motion, a powerful tool in defamation and libel cases, to protect my rights and interests. Their meticulous preparation and attention to detail were evident throughout the process. They took the time to understand every nuance of my case, ensuring no stone was left unturned. This personalized approach made me feel valued and confident that I was in the best possible hands. My first contact with the Lurie & Kramer law firm was with the firm's principal attorney, Barak Lurie, a seasoned litigator with a wealth of experience in handling high-stakes cases. His strategic thinking and unwavering commitment to justice were instrumental in achieving a successful outcome in my case. Brent Kramer, another key attorney at the firm, brought a sharp legal mind and a compassionate approach to every interaction. His ability to navigate complex legal issues with ease was truly impressive. Brent also knew I was on a tight budget so he did what he could to minimize my legal expenses throughout the entire litigation process. For this, I am grateful for Brent's representation. The successful outcome of my case is a testament to their legal acumen and unwavering commitment to their clients. Thanks to Lurie & Kramer, I was able to navigate this challenging situation with confidence and achieve a favorable resolution. I cannot speak highly enough of their exceptional legal prowess and dedication to their clients. If you ever need top-notch legal representation, particularly in defamation and libel cases, I wholeheartedly recommend Lurie & Kramer. Their expertise, dedication, and personal touch make them an outstanding choice for anyone seeking justice and peace of mind.

Super weird that my original review was deleted! We had a…read morevery disappointing experience with this firm. My elderly mother sought their help after her business partner stopped sending her dividends, completely cutting her out of the business. During our initial consultation, Barack assured us that this was a straightforward, slam-dunk case. We paid $25,000 upfront, expecting diligent representation, but after four months, nothing had been done--not even basic communication with the opposing attorney. When an update hearing took place, the firm failed to address the crucial issue of my mother not receiving payments. How does an attorney stand in front of a judge and accomplish nothing? It felt as though Barack was intentionally dragging out the process just to keep billing us. I trusted him, in part because he presented himself as a person of faith, but unfortunately, our trust was misplaced. This firm seemed more focused on collecting fees than actually advocating for my mother. Extremely disappointed in the lack of action and professionalism.
