The Best!!!

These lawyers took on my case when many lawyers turned me down. They were excellent, intelligent and honest. I highly recommend them.

Fantastic experience

I have worked with Barak Lurie and Brent Kramer for nearly 5 years, through an incredibly sophisticated and complex financial lawsuit (with me as the Plaintiff). My opponents were well funded and highly experienced. Litigation is always incredibly difficult and painful for the parties, but the team a...t Lurie & Seltzer got behind my case and went over and above their duties to minimize that pain. They stood up, not only for me, but for my family, and they 'stayed the course' and never once hesitated. If you are going into any legal battle, you need to know that your team are 100% rock solid and will not back down, no matter how powerful your opponent is. My opponents did everything they could to shake us off, but Brent and Barak were relentless. Its exactly what I wanted from my attorneys. What most impressed me was their ability to grasp the very subtle and nuanced business and technical concepts in my case, and translate them into compelling and persuasive legal arguments. They were sharp, accurate and on time for everything (you would be surprised how many attorneys are not). I will never forget what they did for me and my family. If you have a case, and you are fortunate enough for them to agree to take it on and represent you, you can be absolutely assured that your interests are being represented by the best in the business. Do yourself and your case a favor. Retain them. Best decision I made.

The Best Real Estate Attorney in CA

Extremely knowledgeable, professional and I highly, highly recommend Mr. Lurie and his team. I had an URGENT legal matter pertaining to a Real Estate transaction in which I was a buyer. On the day of our Closing, the Seller threatened to pull out of the Sale (just hours before the deadline to close)... if I (as the buyer) did not agree to sign a specific document releasing the Seller of any Liability, after the Seller was in Breach of Contract. Painted into a corner, I had no idea what to do or what my rights were and what next steps I should take. I contacted Mr. Lurie's office at about noon with my urgent matter (deadline of 4pm). Within 30 minutes, I heard back and had a scheduled call with Mr. Lurie within the hour. Mr. Lurie listened to my situation and immediately provided me the legal guidance as to what I should do next and how we should legally proceed. Mr. Lurie calmly assured me that he was an expert in Real Estate matters and guided me to a VERY successful resolution. Aside from closing the deal, I got everything I wanted , and more. I could not be more thankful to Mr. Lurie and his team for helping me in a very timely manner for a very urgent matter. I highly recommend Mr. Lurie's law firm and will definitely turn to him again for any Real Estate matters I encounter. Thank you for the great service!

What A Find!

Barak Lurie and his staff have been a breath of fresh air compared to my experiences in the past with other lawyers (and law firms). Barak himself is straightforward, honest, and trustworthy. Even before our official Consultation, Barak spoke to me on the phone for longer than I had expected (conside...ring my dealings with other law firms) and took the time to offer me some advice on my situation. When we did meet in person and were exchanging pleasantries, I mentioned that I had heard a few of his podcasts and radio shows. He promptly offered me a discount on my Consultation without me even asking for one. Barak has consistently looked for ways to save me money and I feel confident that when all is said and done, I will be happy with the outcome. I would definitely recommend Barak Lurie and his firm Lurie & Seltzer (soon to be Lurie & Kramer) to anyone!

Professional and Patient

I never thought that I would be involved in litigation. I’ve always found a path to common ground. However, after doing my best to manage an escalating real estate situation alone, I was quickly reassured after I consulted with and retained Barak. Barak and team provided continued professionalism, ...insight and patience that was tailored to address my situation and the cast of characters that emerged during my case. In the future, I will not hesitate to call Barak for proactive consultation, negotiations and/or litigation. I am so grateful for the outcome, as well as, the expertise and sensitivity to my specific situation.

"Barak Lurie and I have known each other for over 20 years. A few years ago, we worked together closely on a couple of real estate and business litigation matters. I was impressed by the leadership he showed in his law firm, the high quality of work produced on behalf of his clients, his ability to develop strategies early on in a case, and his uncompromising ethics. It was a pleasure to work with Barak. I endorse this lawyer."

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
