Whether you are faced with issues related to estate planning or bankruptcy, the law governing these areas is complex and can be confusing. I can help you navigate through these issues and provide you peace of mind.. The focus of my practice is estate planning (i.e. trusts, wills, durable powers of attorney and advance health care directives), probate, trust administration and bankruptcy (both debtor and creditor representation).. I consider each client to be unique and am committed to providing quality legal representation to each of them without losing the personal touch. I conduct all client interviews and consultations personally. My goal is to understand each client's needs and to help them achieve their objectives. I welcome the opportunity to put my skills to work for you.. I am recognized by my peers as a highly skilled and ethical attorney and have earned an "AV" rating from Martindale-Hubbell which is the highest rating bestowed on attorneys for their professional knowledge and ability, as well as their ethical standards and conduct in the practice of law.

When you prepare every case like it’s a trial case, you get better results. I have taken over 50 cases to trial, and prepared thousands more. I have handled hundreds of serious or violent felony charges with high stakes, so I know what works and what doesn't, and am not intimidated by a tough situation. Prosecutors don’t give good deals to people they know will never put up a fight. There’s power in being ready for trial. Let’s use it!. As a solo firm, I give my clients and their cases the attention and personal involvement that other firms are unable to provide. I don’t pass off cases to junior associates, so when you hire me you will get me as your lawyer. Having a criminal case is scary and stressful, you need to be able to know what’s happening, not be left in the dark. My clients have my cell phone number, and when they call or text, its me who responds. I won’t make you ask a secretary permission to talk to me about your case.. Running a solo firm also means I can structure my fees around protecting the power of your right to trial. Many lawyers charge 2 or 3 times as much for a trial as for a guilty plea or they try to drop the case if the client wants a trial - I don’t think that is fair.. I enjoy fighting cases for my clients in trial, and my fees and practice encourage trial when the plea deal is not worth taking. Begging prosecutors for a deal, then giving up on a client when begging doesn’t work isn’t my style.

She vowed to be the true voice of consumers.  She is committed to spending the rest of her career changing the lives of consumers who are suffering with their lemons in a positive way.. When you come to us, rest assured that you will not be pawned off on an assistant, a paralegal or lowly associate with little experience.  Ms. Anderson will personally handle your lemon law needs..

DID YOU KNOW?. Actual or Compensatory Damages are intended to compensate for injuries or death. Compensation means "to balance the scales"—to match the amount of money with each of the harms and losses that the injury has caused.  Losses from injury may include the past, present and future loss of earnings, past and future medical expenses; long or short term mental disabilities, such as injuries to the brain resulting in loss of IQ, cerebral palsy, learning disabilities, attention problems, hyperactivity; long or short term physical disabilities, such as paralysis, fractures, burns, cancer; disfigurement; the loss of capacity to enjoy life, lost opportunity, an increased risk of harm, and the pain, suffering, and mental anguish caused by these losses and the injury that was suffered.. Punitive Damages are included in a Jury Verdict to deter the responsible defendant and others from continuing or repeating similar wrongful conduct in the future. They are designed to punish for the great risk of potential harm caused by the defendant’s actions. In many states, 50% of the net verdict for Punitive Damages goes directly to the state's Victims Compensation Fund with the other half going to the plaintiff. The plaintiff’s portion is typically taxable income.

Offering sliding-scale legal services.

My success is measured in the real differences made to my clients quality of life. My objective is simple: to protect your interests. I take pride in knowing that 70% of new clients come from referrals from my clients.. Lawyers have a secret: 90% of cases settle. Many accident lawyers and employment lawyers are afraid of going to trial because they do not have trial experience. When you're at war, I am ready, able, and competent to take the case before a jury. I am a fighter pilot in the court room with battle scars.. Nearly 80% of American workers say they're living paycheck to paycheck while corporation makes billions. As an employment lawyer, I am proud to represent employees in court against unfair and unethical companies. I've represented billion-dollar companies and know their defense strategy.. We can agree that we choose health over money. As an accident lawyer since since 2005, I've represented injured clients; I've also defended major insurance companies. Insurance companies’ lawyers defend an estimated 90% percent of injury cases. I am well versed in insurance defense strategy.. Car accident lawyers' dirty secret: Do as little work as possible, settle quickly with the insurance company and take their 44% fee. Another secret: Insurance companies rarely settle the full value of a plaintiff's case.

My practice concentrates primarily on civil litigation matters, including construction defect litigation, mold litigation, and community association law.  I received my Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science from the University of California, Los Angeles in 1991 and a Juris Doctor degree from California Western School of Law in 1995.  Prior to beginning my legal career, I wrote several legislative update articles as a research assistant for a bipartisan public policy-making organization near Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C.. I have worked on a number of multi-million dollar complex litigation matters in the past, including disputes involving product liability, fraud/misrepresentation issues and residential construction defects.  I am active in several trade organizations including Community Association Institute’s (CAI) Sacramento and Orange County chapters and California Association of Community Managers (CACM).  I have published articles on construction defect and community association issues and frequently give legal seminars on various topics.  I handle construction defect litigation matters for our San Diego and Sacramento office and all point in between.  Away from the office, I enjoy golf, music, spending time with my wife Mirja, family and friends, and raising my son, Benjamin.

My firm represents both plaintiffs and defendants in civil litigation matters with an emphasis in employment litigation, personal injury litigation and alternative dispute resolution (ADR). The majority of my cases involve claims of wrongful termination, retaliation, discrimination, hostile work environment, sexual harassment and wage and hour claims including unpaid wages, unpaid overtime, rest break and meal period violations, failure to timely pay all wages and more. I also represent business, individuals and employers with regard to regulatory and licensing matters, complaince, training, and workplace investigations. I am also available to employers to assist with document preparation and review needs, representation in administrative matters, collections, and for their litigation needs.. My past experience includes representing hundreds of aggrieved employees and injury victims who have suffered serious bodily injuries, sexual molestation, elder abuse, product injuries and more.  I have represented businesses and individuals in claims involving, breach of contract, defamation, negligence, fraud, insurance coverage issues, construction issues and in licensing matters. I have considerable experience in matters involving professional malpractice including claims against doctors, hospitals, dentists, financial advisors, design professionals, accountants and others who hold professional licenses and have defended many of the same.. I also serve as both a private Mediator and Arbitrator.  I am currently on the approved panel of mediators and arbitrators of the San Diego Superior Court, Keybridge Foundation, a mediation provider to the U.S. Department of Justice, FINRA (Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, formerly N.A.S.D.) I offer mediationand arbitration services privately to assist disputing parties resolve their issues quickly and in the most cost effective manner.  My wide range of experience lends itself well to serving as a neutral in a wide range of disputes and I have a very high success rate in bringing closure to litigants or disputing parties..
