I was potentially going in on a real estate investment with all of my inlaws and she broke down my rights, liability and potential risks in a variety of different scenarios. She also offered options for protections for everyone involved and new case law to consider. Truly, she is so top notch and on top of every issue I wanted an answer for to make the best decision. She was not only extremely professional but caring and easy to talk to while also extremely well versed in the latest case law. She was also great at putting things in laymen terms to easily understand. Her compassion will not be forgotten and she will be our family go to with any business and real estate issues in the future. I am certain she will be highly sought after not just locally in her area of expertise in California Real Estate as well as Hawaii Real Estate but statewide in each state. Call her and you will see for yourself. Thank you for everything Shar!

*AI SLOP* DO NOT HIRE…read more I hired Kayla and her firm to review a commercial lease and advise me on a minor billing dispute with my landlord (a $15 administrative fee on a third party bill). From the start, I made it clear that this wasn't about the amount, but about standing up for what was right under the terms of my lease. They said they could help. What I received in return for roughly six hours of billed time (around $2,400) was a memorandum that read exactly like what people call "AI slop" generic, repetitive, and almost entirely restating what I had already written in my own intake summary email. There was no meaningful legal analysis or application of the lease provisions, and several of my questions were completely ignored or misunderstood. It was exactly as if I just copied and pasted the email I sent to them and generated a "lease review". I went and tried it myself and got almost EXACTLY the same "lease review". It really missed the human element. An entire paragraph was dedicated to how if it wasn't a third party bill then they are correct in charging me this. This paragraph was the most obvious giveaway as I made it clear by uploading the bill and stating it on the phone this is a third party bill. This didn't make it to the AI slop "lease review" they generated because in my email text it wasn't specified, and typical of AI responses, they touch all the bases. When I followed up to clarify, the responses continued to miss the point. It felt like a mix of human element with AI assistance even with my communications with Kayla, so it caused a few email back and forths. I raised concern that the memo appeared to have been prepared using AI or some automated drafting tool, since it lacked the depth and reasoning expected of an attorney. That question was never addressed. To make matters worse, after taking on my case fully aware of the limited monetary value of the dispute, I was told only after the bill was run up that the issue was too small for the firm to pursue -- and that I should handle it myself in small claims court. This experience felt unprofessional, ethically questionable, and entirely inconsistent with the transparency expected under the California Rules of Professional Conduct. I do not recommend this firm for anyone expecting a genuine attorney review or personalized legal work. Furthermore I stand by my claim that what I received was AI slop, and am happy to share with anyone what I received so they can see it for themselves. Email me at boba29428@gmail.com if you're interested. As far as I'm concerned I paid $2400 for AI slop and a few back and forth emails to clarify AI slop.

Tresp Law File No. 23-01791…read more After approximately three years of representation, the mineral deed issue became the final straw in Plaintiff's dissatisfaction with Tresp Law. Under the settlement, Defendants were responsible for causing one-half of a specified royalty interest to be transferred to Plaintiff. Tresp Law stepped in and represented that it could handle the deed preparation more quickly and less expensively than if Defendants continued handling it themselves. Tresp Law then spent months researching, preparing, and recording the deed, and Plaintiff paid the firm for that work. The deed was recorded on February 24, 2026. Plaintiff terminated the attorney-client relationship on March 4, 2026. Tresp Law itself acknowledges that the deed work was performed while it represented Plaintiff and that the purpose of that work was to carry out the transfer required by the settlement. After the representation ended, the operator responsible for administering the royalty interest advised that problems existed with the deed and that corrective documentation was required before the interest could be properly divided. Plaintiff requested a refund of the deed-preparation fees. Tresp Law refused. In its August 26, 2026 response, the firm stated that the deed had "conveyed to you an undivided one-half interest, as the Settlement Agreement contemplated," despite the operator's determination that corrective documentation was required. Tresp Law's position appears to be that because it researched, prepared, and recorded a deed, the work was "performed and completed." Plaintiff's position is very different: the firm was paid to prepare a legal instrument that accomplished a specific transfer, not merely to produce and record a document. For Plaintiff, Tresp Law's refusal to refund the fees or otherwise accept responsibility for a deed that required corrective work represents a refusal to stand behind the result of its own legal work. This review addresses only the mineral deed issue. There is considerably more to Plaintiff's three-year experience with Tresp Law. Additional video reviews addressing specific communications, billing issues, litigation decisions, and supporting documents will be published on various social media platforms so viewers can review the record and reach their own conclusions. One of Plaintiff's broader frustrations with Tresp Law was the distinction between work being performed and the case actually moving forward. Plaintiff often felt that tasks were completed, time was billed, and invoices were generated without a corresponding sense that the litigation had materially advanced. In Plaintiff's opinion, a client should not confuse activity with progress. And perhaps that is the larger point. If Tresp Law devoted as much energy to efficient, careful, results-oriented work for its clients as Plaintiff believes it devotes to disputing or attempting to remove unfavorable public reviews, Plaintiff's experience with the firm might have been very different. In Plaintiff's opinion, a law firm's reputation is better protected by the quality of its work than by trying to control criticism of that work. Plaintiff is prepared to post the relevant emails, invoices, recorded deed, operator correspondence, and other supporting documentation so readers can review the underlying record for themselves and reach their own conclusions.
