Litigation 50%

We handle all types of business and real estate litigation. We have successfully obtained many six and seven figures judgments and settlements in breach of contract and business fraud cases. For example, we represented a local real estate investor, who had been defrauded out of ownership of a nursing home. We brought suit in Los Angeles Superior Court, and obtained a $2 million judgment for breach of contract and fraud. Representing a local real estate investor, we obtained the expungement.

HELP!!!!

Did I ever need help! Thank Heaven Rick was amazing. Extremely knowledgable and helpful. Also patient, to walk me through all the complexities of not only a bankruptcy but two additional complex legal cases. I would never hesitate to recommend him to anyone.

We were in trouble. Our landlord had filed for bankruptcy and we needed an expert to protect us. We found Rick Gibson. Thank God! He protected us every step of the way and we could not thank him enough. His LA Kristi was always inforative and supportive.
