Highly Recommend!

Kurt Strauss is an exceptional attorney and has my highest recommendation. He went out of his way to help me with my difficult case being a trustee of my parents trust and having to evict a sibling off trust property. I feel his genuine, calm nature helped get the matter resolved in a civilized manne...r with my sibling. He was always available when I had a question and was always keeping me informed. His fees were very reasonable also which made this difficult situation less painful. I am very grateful for his help.

Hire the right attorney

In August of we gave our tenant in Santa Barbara a 60 day notice to move from our property. In a short period of time we realized that she was not going to move out or pay her rent. Since we live in San Diego this made the situation worse. A friend who is a lawyer, told us to hire an attorney wh...o specializes in evictions. We hired Kurt who explained the procedure step by step. This is a legal situation that is complicated, stressful and expensive, without the right attorney all of the above can truly be a disaster . Without Kurt's help we would still have a tenant living in our property without paying rent! He was professional, caring and totally available. We never even had to go to Santa Barbara, we are both seniors who work and have some health problems. We both sincerely recommend Kurt, he did an excellent job!

Great, trustworthy eviction attorney

Kurt Strauss was an excellent attorney with all matters related to my eviction case. After significant frustration with past attorneys who act as if any questions you have are a burden on them and who provide inaccurate information, it was truly a breath of fresh air to see that there are still good,... trustworthy attorneys out there like Kurt. He took the time to answer all my questions without me feeling like I was taking up his time, gave me accurate information related to the eviction process and was able to finally get the tenant out, unlike the attorneys I had previously attempted to use. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an honest attorney who will get the job done.

Very Satisfied

Kurt is not only very knowledgeable but had a very calming influence from the first consult until the case concluded. These types of cases can be very anxiety-provoking, so his ability to express the issues clearly and calmly was invaluable. He took the initiative to attempt settlement with the tenan...t prior to the trial, and I believe his clear-spoken, even tone did a lot to move the case in my favor. His fees are very reasonable and I felt I was treated more than fairly. I won't hesitate to refer him.
