Justin was wonderful to speak with, and we are very appreciative of his perspectives. My wife and I were concerned over a potential dispute/risk and what it might evolve into. Justin helped demystify the situation and provided possible paths forward that turned an emotionally troubling situation into a simple set of reasonable solutions. Thank you so much! Definitely recommend seeking out Justin, and you'll be in good hands. read more

I had a complex question that was quickly reduced to a simple one with a simple solution that won't bankrupt me. Glad I called Lowenthal read more

I did what everyone said not to do, purchase a property with "friends". It devolved into a battle. Justin was immensely helpful, forever patient with me, explaining the how and why best to proceed. His response time was usually less than 24 hours and extricated me quite painlessly. A huge thank you to you Mr Lowenthal!! Highly recommend this man! And so reasonable compared to the law firm I had initially engaged. read more

Justin and his team handled a real estate family loan matter for us. Multiple family members were involved and everything went smoothly. In my view, Justin found the right mix of keeping it simple, and still including the provisions needed for transparency within in our family (very important, always) and contingencies that could come up. Our work with the firm proceeded logically -- from the initial consultation, to setting up our retainer with the office, to organizing, reviewing, finalizing and signing the needed note and deed of trust. All good. Thanks, Justin, Cindy and all at Lowenthal APC. read more

I'm very happy with the Everything and how quickly it was done and how clearly they communicated. They have great service. Highly recommend. read more

Justin is the absolute best. He is very professional and witty. He got our church out of a huge jam, which seemed to be impossible. I just want to thank you Justin for all your help. Looking for someone professional, Lowenthal is your man. read more

Outstanding service. All my questions were answered clearly, patiently, and respectfully. From making the appointment to the consultation, everyone was polite, professional, accommodating and very pleasant. I would not hesitate to recommend and to use again. read more

I got myself involved as a seller in a lease/option contract that went sour when the tenant buyer defaulted on several payments, and even tried to claim a forged payment receipt was legit. I wrote or incorporated most of the contract on my own, thinking with my journalism background I could write a clearly worded and understood contract. Wrong! After the other party and me got into a dispute, I called in Justin Lowenthal to help clean up the mess. It was a generally unpleasant and stressful experience, but would have been worse without Justin's help and guidance. In fact, another attorney whom consulted with Justin and I commented that Justin's grasp of the situation was correct and better than some other attorney's he dealt with. We eventually settled the dispute in a sort of compromise, but I'm not faulting Justin at all. I think he did the best he could under the circumstances of having a rigid opposing party and an arbitrator who was surprisingly forgiving of the tenants' breaches. I screwed up by writing a dogs**t contract in the beginning, as Justin aptly described it, so I'm to blame, and much smarter and wiser for the experience. I would certainly use Justin again if ever needed, and I will never again try to write my own contract. That's a job for the experts, like Justin. Pay the money up front or you may pay more to get yourself out of a jam. It's money well spent if done early. read more

Justin was very responsive and knowledgeable! I'm very busy and he worked around my schedule and arranged a zoom meeting with me and efficiently followed up ! read more

Sometimes, there's really not much you can do in a situation. That was my issue, however I needed validation that what I believed in, stood for was not insanely crazy. I contacted Lowenthal APC for advice and a way to express myself constructively. What we came up with gave me peace of mind and I will always thank them for listening and helping me to advocate my point through a letter. I may not have won the battle, however, with there support, I clearly walked away knowing they knew where I stood with the situation. Thank you Justin and your support team for all your help.

In February 2019, we purchased a home through Lyon RE. During the real estate process my husband and I were concerned about items we felt were not properly addressed. Between our agent and the sellers agent we were able to work through and negoitiate for work that was needed on the property. The COE was scheduled for March. After securing our new home we decided to sell our home in downtown Davis. I initially spoke to LYON RE, after further discussion it was determined we would engage others for a second opinion (we brought the buyer/cash offer) Our accountant, Manny Carbahal, CPA recommended Justin Lowenthal. We contacted Justin and determined he was a perfect for the job. The transaction was handled professionally and expeditiously. Justin was very organized and efficient which was in stark contrast to the real estate transaction we had experienced. He conducted himself in an utmost professional manner and clearly explained what to expect throughout the process. His rates were reasonable, and we ultimately closed in a timely fashion. New property: once we took possession of the new home in March, we learned conditions of the property that were not disclosed during the transaction. After no response from Lyon RE, we decided to engage Justin Lowenthal to help us in this matter. During the process, Justin maintained close contact working on our case in evenings and weekends in an effort to bring resolution. He was thoughtful, responsive and shared his opinions offering solid advice. The issues were swiftly dealt with via mediation and resolution was wrapped up in a matter of weeks from start to finish. We were very pleased with the outcome. We would recommend Justin and his team to other perspective clients. read more

Justin Lowenthal provided us with a consultation at a more than reasonable rate.

I would highly recommend this law firm. read more

Justin and his team are competent, compassionate, supportive and nonjudgmental. I found Lowenthal after I impulsively got pulled into a real estate nightmare that was not in my best interest and was not going to resolve itself simply by my good intentions. Justin worked quickly and adeptly on my behalf to get me out of a very bad situation. I would describe his team's approach as professional and humane. More than that, I have confidence in and respect for his depth of understanding of real estate property law. I was lucky to have him represent me. His skill brought me out of what otherwise could have been a catastrophe for me. I remain very grateful to have had support during an otherwise very stressful event. I will absolutely use his services again for all matters involving real estate sales and leasing. read more

We spoke with approximately nine attorneys before deciding to hire Justin and hiring Justin was the absolute best decision that we could have made. From our first conversation, we could tell that Justin's knowledge-base was unparalleled and his level of understanding of real estate law was superior to the other attorneys that we spoke with. This would prove itself to be true as we watched Justin in action and successfully reached a happy settlement without the need for arbitration.  The issue: We purchased a home and found ourselves dealing with a major failure-to-disclose issue. The issue was complex in nature and required an astronomical amount of money to repair. As you can probably imagine, we were incredibly frustrated and anxious prior to hiring Justin.  The process: In preparation for mediation, no stone was left unturned by Justin. We felt very prepared and we knew what to expect. During the mediation, Justin was tactful and quick-witted. We were truly impressed with his ability to respond quickly and navigate such a difficult situation. He was relentless and never waned. What would have normally been a very stressful process, was made easy and as stress-free as possible by Justin. We were so happy to have him in our corner. Noteworthy things: Justin was very financially conscious and always acted in our best interest with respect to keeping costs down. He was professional, yet personable, and always a pleasure to speak with.  Needless to say, we would highly recommend Justin to anyone. read more

I am planning on establishing an LLC and contacted Lowenthal APC for consult. I found their website to be clear and the method of contacting them easy. My inquiry was answered immediately in a highly professional manner, reassuring me that the details of my inquiry had been received and would be considered.

We need a lawyer for the front fence issue. My neighbor had a fence built on our property that is in violation of the City's zoning requirements. I contacted Justin Lowenthal, he provided me a free consultation that is very helpful. Thank you read more

I tried to schedule an appointment to speak with an attorney about his experience and before you can speak to anyone you have to fill out what they call an intake form. My issue with that is that there is a lot of personal information that doesn't pertain to their experience. I do NOT want to waist their time or mine if they do not specialize in dealing with HOA's. I did raise the star level because I appreciated Justin taking the time to reach out to me. He was honest and said he does not specialize in HOA issues. read more

My fiancee and I were really happy with the service we received from Lowenthal. They helped us navigate a couple of complicated legal arrangements as we bought a home together. The advice and direction we received was invaluable because we had no idea what to do when we started, and they walked us through everything. Their paralegal is on top of getting paperwork to all parties on time. The fees are very fair - they definitely won't nickel and dime you for every little thing. read more

Justin has represented me in 3 different real estate cases and we have prevailed all 3 times! Justin has helped guide our group when others have acted unethically and even illegally.

Thank you Justin! read more

I would absolutely recommend Justin. I came to him with lots of questions and not a lot of information. After my divorce I was unsure of the financial repercussions of a corporation my ex husband ran that was in my name. He was very reassuring, offered me specific guidelines and information to get me started on a resolution. He took his time with the initial consultation and seemed genuinely interested in my overall welfare. He was incredibly quick at responding to emails. He is my go-to guy for anything business related from now on! read more
