It's official. We are thrilled to be part of the Coldwell Banker Newport Beach office. As some may have heard, our prior real estate brokerage, Villa Real Estate, gave notice a few months back that it would be closing.

Legal assistance to an estate where the Trustee was adamant about selling it themselves to a couple that just happened to drive by while some construction work was taking place and asked the right questions. Lucky them. Do we recommend owners do a 'For Sale By Owner' transaction... no... no we do not (statistical and anecdotal evidence suggests higher prices are achieved using professional real estate agents). Does our legal business allow us to help those who want to put their own deal together... you bet! Happy clients = happy us.

The Orange County Superior Court awarded $97,090 in reasonable attorney's fees to Mr. Lucas' tenant clients following an earlier unanimous 12-0 Jury verdict over a security deposit refund, placing the total award to Lucas' clients well over six-figures. This hefty attorney's fee award outlines the dangers for a landlord's wrongful withholding of security deposits and what can happen when a landlord pushes the issue all the way to a jury trial.
