Stone & Sallus has my highest recommendation. I recently worked with them on a sensitive real estate matter, and Jason Stone and team exceeded my expectations. Two highlights: first, Jason is a true industry expert who prevailed against very challenging opposing counsel. Second, he made me feel like a partner rather than a transaction. Jason listened to my concerns and my background, and he provided a level of dedicated support that made me feel like I had a true teammate, not just legal counsel.I confidently recommend him. read more

Jason and his team were so easy to work with! I had reached out to several attorneys/firms and 2 of them actually referred me to Stone & Stallus also. So I was like heyyy okay referrals back also! The front desk always answered the phone and promptly returned calls and emails. A lot of places you call and its a recording or you dont hear from them for days. I was super stressed out and they made me feel such at ease during the whole process/knowing the next steps to take. I highly recommend this firm and will be using them for anything I need in the future! read more

This is a follow up to my review I received a personal call from Mr. Stone about the firs contact with his firm. He assured me that was not the norm and offered to help me with my legal issue. I informed him that I had al spoken with someone else however I appreciated his professionalism in calling back. He offered to he if need help in the future. I thank him again for calling me back as there was no need. called was put over to a representative who asked if I was a tenant took minimal information and informed me that counsel charges $775.00 per hour. I thanked her. read more

Jason Stone called me back and was very helpful with our issue. Apologised for the miscommunication and offered referrals to assist with our issue. read more

They refer me to a potential attorney. At least they call back and refer me, will keep you posted if it works or not JASON IS SUCH A CARING person that he wants to really help me find the best attorney. read more

Jason reached out from Stone and Sallus. Very professional initial communication via text. Feel like a good form to work with on issues. Thank you Jason. read more

Spoke with Jason he was great he gave me some good advice and was willing to help me without taking my money and I will use him in the future for bigger matters read more

Jason Stone is one of the most incompetent and unprofessional person I have ever had the displeasure of dealing with. He is so incredibly rude and demeaning to the point where my wife was in literal tears. I didn't think it was possible to treat your own clients (who paid tens of thousands of dollars by the way) with such disrespect. Stay as far away as you can from this conman read more

They called me back same day. I appreciate the same day response on the matter. Although, they may or may not take the case, they have several referrals and recommendations. read more

I reached out to inquire about legal matters and was promptly contacted and guided into what area of the law my case is best suited. I appreciate the feedback and instant response. This is of great value in regard to free consultation as most attorneys don't offer. read more

Jason Stone reviewed my trust litigation case, listened carefully, and offered his expertise with candor and integrity. When this goes to settlement or trial, he'll be in my corner. If you are seeking representation, definitely reach out to him for a consult. Many thanks, Jason! So glad I found you! LC read more

Jason is a fantastic guy and a great attorney. He has been helpful with a variety of LA real estate solutions for me. His firm specializes in litigation but that also means that clients have the protection of the other side knowing that fighting is probably not a great idea. Often times, the best defense is a great offense. I think they are the go to firm for Ellis matters as well. In a time when its difficult to get good representation you can rest assured that you are in good hands with Stone and Sallus : ) read more

"Expensive, disorganized, and misleading -- I had to hire a new lawyer. Jason Stone: poor advice, broken promises, and constant upselling" If you are looking for an excellent real estate lawyer who understands California law, is professional, and genuinely cares about clients, I strongly recommend you look elsewhere. After paying thousands of dollars to partner Jason Stone at Stone and Sallus, I experienced misleading advice, broken promises, and disorganization in handling my case. He struggled to keep the details straight and repeatedly pushed me to sign up for additional, expensive services rather than focusing on resolving the matter at hand. Ultimately, I chose to leave and hire another law firm -- one that cared and provided clarity, integrity, and trustworthy guidance. Based on my experience, I cannot recommend Jason Stone or Stone and Sallus. read more

I had been calling around to MANY law firms for weeks trying to find someone who could help advise us on a complex family situation dealing with financial elder abuse. No one would help us until I came across Mr. Sallus. He took the time to listen to us, advise us, help us decide on a solution and then helped us enact that plan. He was on the pricier side but worth every penny knowing we could go back to sleeping at night. Very personable and highly recommend. read more

In the beginning I gave a glowing review with 4 stars. However Jason Stone actually called me because he wasn't happy with the 4 star rating and wanted me to change the 4 to a 5 star rating. I agreed to do so because he stated that he would help me find an attorney that would take my case. A few weeks had gone by and I had not heard from Jason so I called to remind him to send me the referrals of attorneys who would take my case. He said he would get back with me but thus far I still haven't heard back from him or his office For the first time I was dubbed, that is to say coerced and hustled over a "star rating". It appears that once I changed the rating from 4-5 Jason no longer was eager to help me. The good news is no money was lost and now I know better and will not make decisions based on ratings 5 stars rating. Very disappointed. read more

My case is finally done. The court took extra long time, which costed me more for Jason and Scott to work on my case. I finally got the court judgment to quiet title. Long way to the end, more than a year. read more

Stay away from Stone & Sallus. I cannot express how disappointed I was with my experience with Jason Stone. Despite being his client, he yelled at me and belittled me multiple times. He could not keep the details of my case straight and would constantly forget important details. He would frequently not show up for scheduled calls that he requested in the first place. His team sent a zoom invite with no phone number, only a digital meeting link which nobody attended. I then got multiple emails from him claiming I did not join the call and was man-splained that I need to call the phone number that was never provided to me in the first place. He constantly could not keep his word to commitments he said he would do and overpromised and underdelivered. I would ask for an emailed summary and would get a "yeah yeah" that he would send and would never actually get any emails. He almost never sent any actual email communication and would pass it off to his team members who also did not know the full details of the case or context of the phone calls we would have. I ultimately switched to a different lawyer who was a much better fit who communicated regularly, clearly and professionally. read more

Very knowledgeable and helpful. Responded right away with empathy and understanding. I would definitely hire him again.

Amazing customer service. Jason Stone contacted me and was very professional and gave hard and fast answers to help me with my case. After getting no help from any attorneys I contacted, he followed up days later to make sure I was getting the help I need in my wrongful eviction case. I highly recommend his service to anyone needing help when facing eviction. read more

Jason was Very professional, I had a question about my rental property and renter issue. Jason was very helpful and insightful. I would recommend talking to him for all your needs. read more

Attorney Jason Stone replied within 5 minutes of my call for a free consultation. He understood my concerns and situation and was extremely knowledgeable. I highly recommend his services if you have any real estate questions or concerns. Thank you Jason. read more

Hiring this firm was the worst decision I made in my business career. We hired them to represent us in a lawsuit we filed against our Real Estate Broker. Jason and his associate Adam provided no consulting. Jason avoided answering questions and left out key details in the case to us. The judge assigned to our case critized Adams work. read more

I had the pleasure of Jason Stone's help in a complex real estate matter. Jason and team were responsive, resourceful, analytical, results-oriented and endeavored tirelessly to help me get the matter sorted. Their honesty, kindness and advocacy are rare and most appreciated! read more

Ungoing case: Jason is great and is doing everything he can to help me out. Although being very busy he made time to call back and discuss options. read more

I was so relieved when I reached out to them through messages here on Yelp and I got a call from Jason the next day. My case is complicated, couldn't figure out what type of lawyer I needed Family or Real Estate, any other lawyer I reached out to gave me conflicting information and pushed me to the other type. I was getting a runaround and was exhausted! After speaking to Jason and explaining my case, he was very informative & helpful and directed me in the right direction. It wasn't Real Estate unfortunately, but was comforting that I wasn't being tricked or led down the wrong path. He provided me with multiple options in Family Law to assist me. I reached out to them, all returned my calls based on his referral and was able to hire a lawyer to take on my case through Jason's help. read more

Jason was amazing and working with us quickly and to help get things on track. Very experienced, professional, and efficient. I highly recommend him. read more

My gosh! I needed help regarding a landlord-tenant matter - and quickly! It's an issue that's been going on for quite a while and has been enormously draining and challenging. Jason himself called me between court and a conference call today, generously giving me a few minutes of his time, and within five minutes I had answers I needed to take the next step! He didn't even pressure me into a consultation or hiring the firm! But, his help was so crystal clear and actionable that if I DO need more assistance, I will be calling him back right away. Honest, clear, knowledgeable, helpful, and compassionate to my situation. The relief I felt just knowing a legal mind "got it" and could help further if I need it? Priceless. I feel so relieved. He really knows what he's talking about. Thank you, Jason! I've already taken the next steps! I'm so grateful! If I need more help, I'm calling YOU back! Thanks again -- All best, Kate P.S. Their blog is awesome - tons of helpful tips that I used this past year, even before calling them. read more

I was in need of a quick response from a Tenant Lawyer, so I read the previous Yelp reviews about the law firm of Stone & Sallus & attorney Jason Stone & I'm delighted to say that Jason's professionalism, legal knowledge & practical advice was FAR SUPERIOR to what I was expecting! I had never experienced a Tenant/Landlord dispute before, but now I know how unsettling & nerve wracking it can be, so I'm SO happy I found Jason & was able to get the proper consultation I needed! He & his staff have my highest recommendation! read more

Jason Stone has been an incredible help to my boyfriend and I when giving us advice throughout a landlord dispute/issue! He was immediately nice, knowledgeable, and empathetic to our situation, and hasn't hesitated to offer to step in when needed to fight for us. Since it was a shorter call, he even waived his initial consult fee which was INCREDIBLY kind of him. (Senior Legal Assistant Debbie C. was also incredibly kind in helping me get set up to consult with him in the first place!) We've felt completely confident with having his help should things escalate with our situation, and have already noted the firm down to happily recommend to friends in the future. read more

The secretary was a bit unprofessional. Jason followed up and was very helpful in providing references for the my situation.

I called in to see if my case would be something this firm is familiar with and what the process would be if they take my case. I very briefly described the type of issue- we're talking a one word description, and the receptionist informed me what type of attorney I would likely need to speak with and that she couldn't get my phone consultation scheduled with him until the end of the week (I called in on a Monday). She also advised that it would be over $600/hour for an initial consultation. That is quite pricey to just get a feel for their firm and if they are a good fit. I passed on the consultation. read more

Our experience with Stone & Sallus was frustrating and disappointing. A few years ago, my father hired them to handle his estate planning. After an initial meeting with a senior partner, the case was handed off to an assistant. When that assistant went on leave, my father passed away, and the case was returned to the senior partner. From that point on, communication became increasingly worrisome.The senior partner did not seem to understand key details of the case, and we found ourselves having to repeat the same information over and over again on multiple calls. Not only was this frustrating, but we were also billed for the time spent re-explaining details that should have already been documented. When the assistant returned, she discovered that a property transfer we had been assured was straightforward could not actually proceed as we had been told. Once again, we had to go through everything from the beginning, repeating ourselves to the assistant just as we had with the partner. And once again, we were billed for the time it took to catch them up...on a case that should have already been properly documented and managed. Resolving the issue ended up costing far more than anticipated...ultimately, we spent more on legal fees than the property was even worth. We reached out to the senior partner to share our concerns, but instead of taking responsibility, he immediately tried to shift the blame onto the assistant. We made it clear that we were upset with him. His response was dismissive. We asked for nothing...only to be heard. Years later, familiarity prompted me to give the firm another chance. I reached out to see if the partner could assist with a new case...perhaps even make amends for our previous experience. Sadly, after leaving a message with their receptionist, the partner didn't even have the decency to return the call.

I randomly came across Stone and Sallus' page here on Yelp a little over a day ago and contacted them. Jason returned my call pretty quickly and was very eager to speak to me. I explained my situation to him and he took the time to talk to me in between his meetings. Very polite guy!!! He took the time to let me know that his firm does not really handle cases like mine BUT he explained to me what to expect when I do hire an attorney who specializes in what I was looking for. He addressed the issues I told him about and offered me a few steps that were not only informative but HONEST and that alone commanded my respect. Jason also send me a number to call with a directory of lawyers who could respresent me and told me not to just take the first one. He said take your time to fond someone you really connect with and who can really help you with the two solutions that you require. Great guy, took his time with me and let's just say that I will be referring him in the future! - Neil read more

Jason read my review and promptly contacted me. After a discussion about all of my valid points and concerns Jason Stone was eager to make things right. Jason did not terminate his representation of me, he worked very hard to get me an adequate settlement and did so without further bills. It was a rough go but in the end Jason had compassion for the predicament I was in and resolved the situation to our mutual benefit. I had a problem with my representation and I explained my position. Jason listened, understood and provided an end result to my satisfaction. If you have a valid problem, talk to him. I am sure that the problems I encountered are not the norm. read more

OMG. After the Palisades Fire, it's been impossible to find a place to lease. I needed an urgent review of a lease, and some questions answered about it, and Jason called me back so quickly and offered such incredible advice to me. I spoke with a few other firms, but none of them even came close to how knowledgeable, confident, and helpful Jason was. Cannot recommend highly enough! read more

I consulted Stone & Sallus regarding a move-out date dispute with my landlord. My 13 month lease was ending and I had decided to move out. 2 weeks before the move out, the landlord says I cannot move out unless I give a 30-day move out notice. He claimed that it is the law in California. Stone & Sallus was quick to respond to my yelp query and provided a brief consultation over the phone without any charge. They asked me questions about my lease-agreement, explained how courts usually handle these cases. Based on this discussion, we wrote an email to the landlord and they agreed to let us move out as planned. Stone & Sallus followed up with us to know if our dispute was resolved. Really appreciate the advice we got from them. Highly recommend. read more

I had quick 10 minute consultation with Jason Stone about my landlord/tenant issue. Jason was very professional and gave me some suggestions without charging me. I like his attitude and would utilize his firm when needed. read more

Jason went above and beyond the call of duty to assist my partner and I with the multitude of issues we had with our duplicitous property management company and landlord, can't thank him enough for providing consistent legal advice, helping us assuage our issue, and being an all around stellar person to work with, would highly recommend! read more

Jason Stone came highly recommended by a colleague and I am very grateful that he and his team took my case. Their team reviewed my situation thoroughly and were efficient with our time, keeping billable hours to just the essentials. Jason was transparent with what each option entailed and detailed the risks and costs associated with each path forward. I never felt pressured to grind out a lengthy legal battle and was supported to make the best possible personal decision. This was my first time dealing with the legal system. The team patiently broke down the legal jargon and made sure that I was ready for meetings with the opposition. Jason demanded efficiency and professionalism from all parties involved, opposing and neutral, despite their attempts to draw out the process. Jason and his team were communicative, responsive, and effective. We reached an agreement that seemed impossible at the start and avoided costly court proceedings. While I hope to never have another legal battle, Jason and his team will be my first call if I find myself in need again! read more
