Lemon Law Arbitration

I came to Mr. Kaleel after losing an BBB arbitration case against Ford for our brand new F150 King Ranch truck. I had the truck in the shop multiple times and finally filed for the Lemon Law and followed all the appropriate steps to take the vehicle to the BBB arbitration for a repurchase. Even tho...ugh the problem with the vehicle continued to exist, the arbitrator failed to award the repurchase. I rejected the decision and started looking for representation. I called many law offices and most everyone wanted to pursue Ford with a warranty claim. Mr. Kaleel was the only one I found willing to pursue the claim to arbitration under the Lemon Law. I hired him and he took the time to go over all the accumulated documents up to that point, and he was extremely helpful and thorough as he gathered the necessary information to win the case. He could not believe that the arbitrator from the BBB did not award the buyback and was confident that we would get the repurchase from the Attorney General Arbitration Board. He soon drafted a letter to Ford and the Attorney General Lemon Law office with the intent to move forward with the arbitration. We immediately got a response from Ford that they would repurchase our vehicle! After a few weeks of dealing with Ford's counsel, which we found very difficult, Mr. Kaleel was able to negotiate an amazing deal that we were very happy with. Ford, although they didn't have to, payed most of the Attorney's fees as well! Although I wish I could have avoided the entire Lemon Law experience, I would not hire anyone else to go up against a giant company like Ford. Mr. Kaleel did an excellent job and it was an outstanding win! I highly recommend his services if you are in a similar situation.

Lemon Law Arbitration

I had a case with Ford and I represented myself at first with the BBB (big mistake) and lost. I found Josh to help me through the formal Arbitration process as he came highly recommended. From the moment I had my first consultation Josh was as up front with me an laid out a map of what to expect, an...d how the process was going to work. Not only was he fair, but fair exceed my expectations for the level of communication and attention to detail he gave towards my case. We ultimately won against ford, but not after countless hours of work that Josh put into my case. I felt very well represented and taken care of throughout the entire process.

A New Look at an Old Price, LLC

I had an issue with a subcontractor for a job that owed me money and Josh was very informative and professional and as a result the demand letter was effective and I ultimately received full payment from the subcontractor without having to proceed to trial. I will definitely use his services in the f...uture if they are needed. Sincerely, Matt/President A New Look at an Old Price, LLC
