David Seto is an excellent attorney
I was served with an eviction notice from my previous landlord. There were some very unusal circumstaces and David went the extra mile to make sure my case was settled without a judgement hitting my credit report and with a reasonable payment arrangement to my lanlord. I highly recommend him he is very knowledgeable and will definitely fight for you to get the best outcome possible.
