General Civil Practice

There are a variety of other legal matters in which I offer my services. These include, but are not limited, to:

Civil harassment cases, where, for example, a neighbor is harassing you but the police can't stop it. I will help you obtain an order from a judge that will stop it.

CC&Rs enforcement in condominiums and housing developments.

Sale of structured settlements, annuities and insurance policies to companies such as J. G. Wentworth, Novation Capital, Stone Street Capital, and Woodbridge Structured Funding. You will pay nothing to me if I represent you in such sales. By California law, the buyer must pay my fee, and cannot take it out of your proceeds from the sale.

Representation at mandatory fee arbitration hearings. The legal basis for recovering fees from a lawyer who represented you is well defined. Most clients lose fee arbitration hearings because they don't know the law. I will examine your situation, and advise you on your chances of success. If you retain me, I will submit a legal brief to the arbitrator, then prepare you and represent you at the arbitration hearing.

Student loan issues, including erroneous interest charges.

Contract disputes.

Civil annulment.

Negotiation of severance packages.

Inmate civil rights lawsuits (aka Bivens actions) filed under 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983, that allege a violation of an inmate's civil rights, typically by the officials or entities having custody of him

Federal cases involving violation of state laws on federal property. I can represent you if, for example, you were caught speeding on Vandenberg Air Force Base or on the Point Mugu Naval Air Station.

Assessing Your Case

Speaking with a qualified, experienced lawyer should be the first step you take if you find yourself in one of the situations discussed above.

I will examine the details of your case and suggest taking legal action only if that is in your best interest.

I charge a flat fee in cases I handle. Once you pay the agreed fee, I will represent you throughout your case, and you will not have to pay me any more money, no matter how complicated or time-consuming your case is.
