Justice for the little people

Brad Kane is a great attorney. He is very detail oriented and committed to understanding the facts of the case. I’ve always believed that in order to achieve something of monument you will almost definitely need support. Brad and his team of attorneys and para legals was exactly the support my fami...ly needed in order to achieve the positive outcomes in both a civil and family law matter. I have seen first hand his ability to negotiate and the level of preparation that he dedicates to going to trial. Thank you Brad for your help. My family owes you and your firm a great deal of gratitude for how you have fought and won our cases. If you are looking for a fierce negotiator that is equally if not more competent at trial then I suggest Brad and his firm. They may not be the largest firm but they are definitely quality attorneys. Thank you all again!

Diligent, No-nonsense Representation

I hired Brad Kane and his team to help me with a relocation assistance claim under the Los Angeles Rent Stabilization Ordinance. My landlord rented an unpermitted structure to me and, a year later, was ordered by the city to evict me and pay relocation assistance. Instead, he chose to try to scare me... out with threats of having sheriff's deputies escort me out with just three week's notice. If you're ever in this situation, do not expect it to be a slam dunk as there is no way to make a landlord actually pay. Landlord's may incur more penalties from the city for delaying, but it requires a lot of tactful pressure to make them pull the trigger. Without Brad Kane, Chris Cude and Gershom Benitez from the Kane Law Firm, I probably would have joined the ranks of so many renters who end up giving in to the harassment and loss of utilities by just moving out without the assistance they deserve. Kane Law extracted my relocation assistance and almost all of the rent I had paid over the last year. Admittedly, I'm the annoying type of client who wants more details than I probably need, but this didn't bother these gentlemen like it would bother most. They kept in constant contact with me from day one, updating me on every facet of the case and providing step-by-step instructions to be sure my temper didn't ruin my case. I couldn't be more satisfied. They definitely earned every dime and probably more than they were paid. Kane Law rolls up its sleeves and gets the job done.

Caring, considerate, and goes out of his way to help.

Mr. Kane was an absolute professional. He took the time to listen to my situation, and offer advice. He truly cares about the people that he helps, and it shows in how he speaks to you and treats you. If your looking for someone that sees you and the struggle that your going through and not just doll...ar signs then he is definitely your man. This was the most pleasant experience I have ever had with a lawyer, or any professional for that matter. I would recommend him to any and everybody that needs help through a legal struggle.

Honest, Knowledgeable, Conicse, and Caring Consultation

Mr. Kane immediately and expertly fielded my very frantic phone call seeking consultation regarding a particularly complicated and time-sensitive landlord vs. tenant situation. Unlike many Los Angeles Attorneys "trying to make an easy buck" out of desperate Defendants, Mr. Kane suggested his honest ...insight and experienced ideas to steer me towards my legal options for proper action/defense. He did not "cherry-coat" my precarious situation: he presented me with reality, and I believe that is of utmost importance when one finds one's self in such a dangerous position as to be desperately Googling-around for legal help. I agree with the many other grateful and impressed Reviewers here who urge: contact Mr. Kane. He knows what he's talking about, he cares, and if anybody can help-- he will.

knowledgable, professional, direct

Brad is very knowledgable as to all aspects of employment law and employment practices and was critical to the successful resolution of our employment claims, in the face of a VERY DIFFICULT opposing client / former employer. Without Brad's assistance, I don't know what we would have done, and what..., if any, our other options would have been. Our former employer basically rolled right over our previous counsel, but when Brad came aboard and took our case, he was on our side from Day One until the settlement, and was very detailed, professional, thorough, responsive and kind-hearted through what was a very emotional process. I cannot recommend him highly enough.
