Law Offices of Robert J. Spitz

I just settled two real estate cases. One was a partnership case. My client will receive a very nice single family residence in San Dimas worth $520,000 plus a cash payment of $100,000. The second case was a probate contest between brother and sister. My client will receive the house worth $800,000 and keep all of the rents she has collected.

Just won two trials, two days in a row for my two different clients. In the first case, I won nearly $200,000 for my client who had made the mistake of purchasing a home in Joint Tenancy with her boyfriend. They had planned to be married after moving into the house, but he turned out to be a miserable and verbally abusive alcoholic. Three years later she was forced to leave and asked him to sell the house and divide the proceeds 50 50. He refused and I filed a lawsuit. ... We prevailed over his claim for about $200,000 more than her 50% share. The Judge ruled that a Joint Tenancy means a 50 -50 distribution at sale even if there were unequal contributions along the way. In the second case, my client paid the property taxes on a vacant lot next to her home that had been purchased by some land speculators who did nothing with it for seven years. She won title to the vacant lot by Adverse Possession which requires paying property taxes and maintaining possession for more than five years. Now she can build a garage on the lot and her son can use it for his repair business. The land speculators who sat on their hands are out of luck. In both cases the attorneys on the other side were arrogantly telling their clients that they could not lose the case. They refused any sort of reasonable settlement. That is why you need to hire the Law Offices of Robert Spitz to get the straight truth about your case and not hire a lawyer who lies to you for one or two years about winning and loses in the end after spending all of that money.

Law Office of Robert Spitz just obtained a $200,000 settlement for our client in a Wage and Hour Overtime case. The employer had not been paying any overtime to the employee for many years. When the employer terminated without good cause, we filed the Complaint. If you have a wage and hour claim, please contact the office for some help.
