Competent, Honest, Fair

What more could I ask for in an attorney? Dealing with anything legal can feel incredibly stressful - the unknown of it all, the expense, the wondering if your lawyer is actually looking out for you in all ways...but I can honestly say that Cory has helped me see lawyers in a much different, incredib...ly positive light. He is open and honest, looks for the best possible solutions to every matter, and then takes the time to communicate clearly how to navigate through legal matters in a way that is easy for even the most inexperienced minds to comprehend. Cory has managed to make a couple of big situations in my life melt away, and for this I am forever grateful. Working with Cory also comes with tremendous value, as you tend to walk away with far more information, assistance and care than you probably deserve. Outside of his in depth knowledge of contract/employment law to which I can attest, I can tell he has a very big heart and truly has had my back - which has really helped my confidence in dealing with tricky legal battles. Look no further, call Cory.

Cory is Passionate, Insightful, Respectful and HONEST

I've had the pleasure of hiring Cory to help me out with a few problems over the years regarding employment litigations and labor disputes. Rarely is the hassle of hiring an attorney an enjoyable one, but Cory obviously loves what he does and is passionate about helping people. I wouldn't go to anyo...ne else, he is honest and kind, super responsive and most importantly never treats you like you're a "little fish" - like other attorneys who view you as lesser value. Cory is transparent and won't waste your time or his if he can't help you. Thanks Cory!

Genuinely Caring, Energetic, Winner

Cory's instant availability whenever I needed him and going the distance to explain my options were top-notch. I worked with many lawyers in the past, and with Cory I felt he genuinely cared about my situation, it was very refreshing. He was very upfront about any unnecessary steps to save me legal c...osts. His complex litigation experience and knowledge gave me confidence and successfully dismissed the case that I was unfairly getting sued for. Overall, he has an authentic, approachable, caring personality. You definitely want Cory on your team, he is a winner. Thank you for all your help Cory.

Litigation matter

I live out of state not in CA and I contacted Cory Baskin leaving a message regarding legal advise I needed. Mr. Baskin called me personally in 24 hrs to discuss. He advised he would look into the information I had given him. He contacted me several times over the next couple of days providing m...e with information and options for my situation. Very professional and I would recommend Mr. Baskin highly.

Fantastic attorney

Cory was hired on in order to assist with some difficult business matters against a company with much deeper pockets than I have and he was able to get a very reasonable settlement for me. He was very professional and friendly during the entire process, and walked me through every step of the way. I ...can not recommend his services enough.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I endorse Cory because he did a terrific job on a real property case on which I worked with him. My office was assisting a mother and daugher who were on the verge of foreclosure and eviction. In pro per, they had filed a motion to vacate the judgment. My office was swamped, and at our request, Cory agreed to appear at the hearing on the motion and try to save our clients from losing their home. Cory had very little time to prepare for the hearing, but he jumped right in and did a prodigious amount of work in a short period of time. I attended the hearing, and Cory did a superb job at oral argument. The judge took the case under submission, a result that we considered quite a victory in itself. Cory didn't stop there. He helped our clients file a lis pendens and prepare for an appeal. Nearly a week later, the court still had not ruled on the motion, and Cory went in again ex parte. He persuaded the judge to grant the motion and vacate the judgment. Our clients were ecstatic."
