WE WON.. CASE DIMISSSED.. THANK YOU SCOTT

Under Covide I received a Frivolous ADA WCAG website compliance lawsuit by the Frivolous "Handy Potter" Law firm who is not liked by the courts in San Francisco as their firm is an unprofessional legal milling practice & their fraudster client The plaintiff, "Un-Blinded" Andres Gomez. Of course my b...usiness was at a peril at that point in time, although Attorney Scott Karlin and his professional team, with Melissa and Dan were to the rescue. The lawsuit hit at the worse time in my family and my life as our business was struggling business. The level of service that Scott and his team brought was assuring. They even captured video surveillance of The Un-Blinded Andres Gomez walking around without any assistance discovering factually that Andres Gomez was not blind at all and consistently lied to the courts under oath. Andres Gomez and the Handy Potter has caused much harm to families and local small businesses and now, The Karlin group has brought much relief and stopped those carpet baggers from terrorising businesses using the false premises of being blind and using the ADA laws illegally. I want to thank the entire Karlin Group for their complete service from A-Z... Thank you Scott. Prayers to your team and yourself.. Case Dismissed..! Amen.

L. Scott Karlin, one of the best real estate lawyers

When ever I need a real estate lawyer, I go to Mr. Karlin.

Posted by Anthony | August 18, 2010

None Better

I met Mr. Karlin almost ten years ago, at a time when I was starting a new business and in need of legal counsel in California. Mr. Carlin was recommended to me, along with another attorney, by a highly respected colleague of mine. After my initial meeting with Mr. Karlin, I had no interest in meet...ing with the second attorney. That first meeting sparked what was to become a long-term and extremely rewarding business relationship. Today, even when I have matters in New York, Connecticut, Pennsylvania, or Washington State that require a lawyer's expert input, I turn first to Scott and I let him make the recommendations. If a local attorney is needed, I always ask Scott to interview the attorney and if one is engaged, I rely on Scott to direct the proceedings. My business became quite successful and I often wonder whether it would have been so had I not met Scott. He has a brilliant legal mind but he is also a pragmatist and a man with great business sense, a combination not easily found in lawyers.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
