They are very knowledgable professionals. They helped us navigate through the case smoothly and swiftly. At the beginning, they clearly outlined what to expect at every step and how long each would likely take. It turned out that everything went exactly as predicted. I highly recommend this group for lemon law related issues.
I highly recommend reaching out to Kaufman & Kavicky with your legal questions. Im currently having an issue with my solar company, and although K&K wasnt the right firm for the matter, Scott Kaufman hand-held me to get to the right firm, and asked me to come back to them for any additional guidance. I actually spend my days working with corporate law firms, and you dont get this kind of service from the big firms. Thanks to Scott and team for the great support!
I was recently represented in my lemon law case by Erika Kavicky and I cannot say enough to express my gratitude towards her, Leilani, and the rest of the California Lemon Lawyers team. I was fortunate to find them while researching lemon law cases after my new Chevy Silverado began having ongoing engine problems and ended up having to spend months in the dealership service department. I had little to no knowledge of the lemon law process and how it worked, but Erika guided me through every step of the way, taking the time to explain everything to me and answer any questions I had. Fast forward, and I am walking away with a very nice buyback settlement of all of my money back and more from GM all thanks to Erika! In the end, what started off as frustrating and anxiety-inducing car problems turned out to be a blessing in disguise.
As a personal injury attorney I get lots of calls about cars. A chunk of those calls have to do with cars that do not work the way they are supposed to - not at all in my wheelhouse. But I know who to refer those people to - Scott Kaufman. I refer people to Scott because I know that he will take care of them and treat them right (and do a great job).
Well if making lemonade out of lemons is your desire start right here and reach out to Scott Kaufman at Kaufman and Kavicky! Having known Scott for decades I can assure you he is straight-up brilliant, kind and has great attention to detail and follow through. He’s the go-to guy for your automobile challenges and can direct and counsel you on other legal issues as well. Kaufman and Kavicky is connected, highly respected and doesn’t do mediocre. Heck I was in an airplane accident and Scott jumped in immediately and held my hand through a referral and litigation with the best aviation firm to handle my specific case. Legal challenges are stressful. Turn to Scott for a responsive knowledgeable professional who will get the job done. Im biased having had the pleasure of knowing Scott for years. You’ll feel amongst family when you hire him too!
I have known Scott Kaufman for 40 years and have always known him to be ethical, compassionate, and devoted personally as well as professionally. Additionally, I frequently refer to him whenever his law services are warranted. Therefore, I feel comfortable recommending Scott as a beacon in his field due to his story, work ethic, and tenacity. He is a mentor to me personally and professionally, which I am honored to endorse.
They took very good care of me. They will execute a great deal on your behalf. Ask for Attorney Isaac Agyeman. He helped me with my case. He is a straight shooter and a great communicator. If I could give him 10 stars, I would. Great job Isaac Agyeman and Kaufman & Kavicky.
Scott showed genuine care about my case. Our vehicle had gone through multiple repairs and the manufacturer simply didnt care. He and his staff spent a lot of time to understand our situation. Even though in the end he determined he could not take our case, he gave a set of excellent referrals to other attorneys who could--all without cost to us. Imagine that! He is empathetic and really fights for the consumer. Should you ever be in the unfortunate position being stuck with a lemon, you will be in great hands with Scott.
Scott and his team did a great job making Samsung meet their obligations when I had a (too) expensive refrigerator fail after 2 years of ownership (and many repair calls). Samsung gave me the run-around for months. I handed off to Scott and his firm, and he got Samsung to fully refund the fridge cost and haul the broken fridge away. And, I didnt have to talk to Samsung again! It really steams me when these consumer product firms dont stand behind their work, and I give Scott and his firm 5 stars for standing up for us little guys! Thank you Scott!!
I had an issue where my car was at the dealership for a couple of months and I reached out to Scott and Erika for help in pursuing a Lemon Law case. They were fast and responsive and were able to resolve my case within a couple of months with an amazing outcome I was more than happy with. Thank you Erika and Scott!
While researching attorneys for information about my Chevy Bolt and the recalls, I sent an email to Scott Kaufman. Within a couple of hours he replied and provided more information than I had received from several other firms combined and while I dont need an attorney at this time, he has continued to stay in touch, offer more advice and suggestions. Many times.If youre in need of an attentive, knowledgeable attorney I would not hesitate to allow Scott and this law firmrepresent you. If my case changes and I need an attorney, Scott and his firm will be it.Unbelievable consultation. Thank you.
Scott has just helped me win my lemon car case, and the manufacture bought back my lemon car at the original price. I was so frustrated when my car broke down so many times and I wasted lots of time dealing with the dealership to fix it. I also tried to deal with the manufacturer myself to qualify my car as a lemon, but they had really bad attitude and wouldnt do anything about it. Then I found Scott through Yelp and called him for help. He responded right away, and told me that I have a case and we can start it immediately. The whole process was very smooth, and I got all my money back half a year later. I am so glad that I worked with Scott, and would recommend him for any lemon case.
I had a fantastic experience with this law firm. I purchased a new motorcycle and was nothing but problems. Unfortunately it was in and out of the repair shop repeatedly in the first three months of ownership.I asked that the manufacturer take the motorcycle back from me, as it was clearly a lemon. After no luck dealing with the Manufacturer on my own, I found Scott Kaufman.Scott took very good care of my case and my motorcycle was indeed deemed a lemon. The manufacturer took it back and I received a settlement. The process was not too lengthy and in the end everything turned out fine.Thank you Scott.
The staff and Attorneys at Kaufman and Kavicky very competently managed my case. Theyre knowledgeable in their field, and know how to navigate through the car manufacturers. They are also very easy to get a hold of, they respond to my questions quickly. This is a firm you can trust. I would not hesitate to use them again.
Very bad service. They provided me wrong information, arrogant response. Another law firm solved my problem faster, kindly, and competently. Hire at your own risk.Re: Well, it was not my ego that came to the internet to highlight my past accomplishments, nor to share personal information provided in a legal consultation (which I believe good professionals would never do). Well again, actions speak more than words. I keep my hire at your own risk as anyone can see. I dont have more time to waste with this person, bye.
Had a minivan with transmission issues that couldnt be fixed. Wasnt sure what to do. Relative said I should look into a lemon law claim. Looked for lemon law lawyers - found Kaufman & Kavicky. They accepted my case, and successfully concluded it, i. e. the manufacturer agreed to a buy back. Took just about 6 months. So glad I reached out to them. Working with them was great, they set realistic expectations about settlement and timeline, no false promises. Absolutely recommend them.
I hired Scott to help with a brand new car that I purchased but was constantly in the shop. I was very happy with Scott and all of his staff. The process was easy and Scott was honest about what I could expect. I followed all of his advice and my lemon is gone. I was paid back, in full, by the car manufacturer. Not a dime came out of my pocket. I highly recommend that you talk to Scott if you think you have a lemon.
Absolutely recommend this firm! I attempted to deal with my lemon case directly with manufacturer and was denied! I then contacted Kaufman & Kavicky and had them take over. Erika kept me updated on my case and was available if I had any questions. She was always understanding and professional. Everything through out the process was done electronically and that worked perfectly for me since im not in their area. My case has been settled and I obtained more that I expected! I am truly grateful for this law firm and feel so relieved to no longer have an unreliable vehicle in my possession. THANK YOU!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Erica and Scott were AWESOME!!! I had bought a car online and had it for 8 months, took it to my mechanic for oil change and tire rotation. (I didnt commute at the time, so yes 8 months!)My mechanic discovered the whole entire chassis was COMPLETELY rusted!As soon as I found out I did contact the online company I bought it from, after talking to them, I knew I needed an attorney! Scott responded to my request for consult asap!! Now, if you think your issue will be resolved overnight, guess again! This is a long process and you have to be patient! My case took almost 2 years but it was settled out of court, company bought my car back too! Thanks to Erica and the entire team !! She is AMAZING !! She knows what she is doing!!! THANK YOU ERICA and SCOTT & team!!!!!
I worked extensively with Isaac and Scott. Scott is straight shooter, very knowledgeable, and responsive. Isaac was always available, worked the case tirelessly and knew what he was doing. Even after the fact, Scott was available to answer questions. Overall great experience and awesome results.
Scott returned emails quickly and in great detail as to what action will be taken. I was always satisfied with the answers Scott gave and felt I was in very good hands. The whole process took a reasonable amount of time. But I was just surprised how quickly his team worked on my case. Thank you Scott for your patience with my concerns. Ive learned a lot from the experience. For the record, my car was a 2013 Dodge Dart with an oil leak the dealership couldnt fix after 3 separate attempts. After the 3rd time, I contacted Scott. Even after having the car for 3 years, we still won our case!
Erika Kavicky and team did an outstanding job representing me regarding my electric car recall. It was very frustrating dealing with the manufacturer who was clearly not focused on addressing concerns regarding my car. Erika capably took over and eliminated my frustrations and effectuated a great outcome. She made the entire process easy, was clear about timelines and expectations, and was super responsive. If I ever have a new car with problems that the manufacturer wont quickly address, my next call will always be to Kaufman & Kavicky.
I did not hire this firm, HOWEVER, I did have an excellent experience dealing with them. My case was not a cookie cutter lemon case, but nonetheless, a case worthy considering. In the end, I was able to resolve it on my own through the manufacturer for a full refund. I called several attorneys and was appalled at some of the responses, the arrogance, and frankly, lack of compassion. This firm and another were wonderful. First, Scott is an expert. Second, he understands what it feels like to deal with people in this industry; the dishonesty, the double-talk, and the lack of transparency thats built into the system. Its not just a job for Scott, he gets it. In that respect, he is not just a lawyer, but an advocate. This is very important when youre being represented. Scott was responsive, understanding, smart, and eager to help. I would not hesitate to hire him. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
After three years of extreme frustration of trying to work directly with the manufacturer of my new car with no results, I finally looked up and read about the Lemon Law and wondered if by any slight possibility my car was covered. While holding for yet another representative I Googled Lemon Law Lawyers near me and California Lemon Lawyers rave reviews encouraged me to take a look at their website. I hesitantly submitted an online inquiry on their site and they contacted me and asked to review my repair bills, etc. Within just a couple of days they told me that they believed I had a case and that they could help me. Never in my wildest dreams did I think I would be able to get rid of my car let alone get the results I did! I received ALL of my money back! Including ALL of the money I paid for two extended warranties! And it was settled in less than three months! From the very first contact everyone at their firm was responsive, friendly and extremely professional. Thanks so much Colin, Scott, Leilani, Breana and of course my champion Erika! I cant thank you enough. Dont waste three years trying to do this yourselves like I did. Make California Lemon Lawyers your first call. Trust me, they know their stuff!
It is my pleasure to give Scott a 5-star rating. I appreciate his willingness and responsiveness to help and guide at no cost. I had a small case that I was looking for attorney service. Scott responded quickly and provided insightful tips. If I were to hire an attorney, I will consider Scott first :).
I had the pleasure and outstanding experience working with Erika Kavicky and her team who took on my case. I could not have asked for a better turn out. The results were amazing and more than what I expected. Mrs. Kavicky works hard for her clients and she stays on top her work. She kept in immediate communication with me throughout the process and answered all of my questions whenever I had any. I also had the opportunity of speaking to Mr. Scott Kaufman a couple of times, as well, and likewise he is wonderful to work with, just as detailed in communication, professional and friendly. I was in great hands the entire time and I was confident in their work and never doubted. This is the team you want to have representing you going up against these big organizations. They are highly skilled at what they do and they are up front with you about expectations...no surprises, no beating around the bush, no confusion. I cannot be thankful enough for.my results. I will be referring anyone I know who needs legal help with lemon law issues. You cant go wrong with Kaufman & Kavicky Lemon Law attorneys. I highly recommend them. Give them a call. You wont regret it.
I dont usually write reviews, but Scott was AMAZING! I purchased a car from a dealership and I was having problems getting the title and registration. Scott took my case on and went full steam ahead. He was able to get me exactly what I wanted for a resolution in a very timely manner. He was always patient with my constant questions and would get back to me extremely quickly. I cant say enough wonderful things about how he treated me and how knowledgeable he is on all things related to consumer rights and lemon laws. Scott really is the best!
I submitted an inquiry online related to a recent car purchase and within the hour I received a response from Scott. He provided guidance and made excellent suggestions. I took this information and went back to the dealership with precise questions and cleared up the issue.I appreciate the quick response and knowledge. I highly recommend Scott.
OMG!! Of all the attorneys Ive had for various lawsuits, Scott Kaufman was the BEST!! Quality, valule, very professional and responsive. If I sent an email I got one back from either Scott or his staff. I never went a few days without an answer. His team was amazing as well. From the receptionist to the paralegals, everyone was great to work with and he got me a settlement that was more than fair. I highly recommend!
I called Kaufman & Kavicky about a dealership that sold me a car without a smog check but charged me for it at the sale. I wasn’t able to renew my registration for months, the dealership didn’t have a resolution except for me to smog it and they would reimburse me. I got nowhere. When I figured out the dealership had done this to many buyers, was when I decided to get help. My first contact with the firm was with Scott, and he was a big help, willing to listen and answer my questions thoroughly. He helped me understand initially, so I decided to move forward to settle the issue.Monica was my attorney for the case and she was great! I had a ton of questions and she was very patient with me. Answered every question, kept in communication with me and got the suit settled exactly as she said she would. She also took care of the suit more quickly than I had anticipated. I learned a lot and am grateful. I will definitely refer Scott and Monica to anyone who may need their help.
Wasted months of my time on a case they didnt want to see to the end... because they didnt read the intake notes at to the desired outcome. If they didnt want the case they should have not taken it, or continued to take the case since they agreed to it. Communications often took many days and were disorganized, as I had to explain the entire situation many times.
I worked with the Kaufman law firm to settle a claim against VW USA for and Audi A-3 Etron. While the process was quite lengthy I really appreciated the fact that I was informed of the progress at each stage and was told what to expect. They were able to get VW to repurchase my vehicle with a minor deduction for depreciation. I would unconditionally recommend them for any matter involving the lemon law .
Scott and Erika were both fantastic in dealing with my Lemon Law case. It was a small claim but they treated it with the same importance as any other case. Further, they were able to procure a great settlement very quickly before we had to go to court. I would HIGHLY recommend this firm for anyone with a Lemon Law need.
I would like to thank the amazing team at Kaufman and Kavicky. Dealing with a lemon is no fun and such a headache. Kaufman and Kavicky made the process so fast and easy. They kept me updated every step of the way and were always so pleasant to work with. I will continue to recommend them to everyone!
Erika and Scott are amazing! They had given me hope when I did not think it existed. My car caught on fire in the middle of the night, and the manufacture was not willing to take the responsibility. After calling numerous attorneys, no one was willing to take my case stating that there was not one. Erika and Scott believed otherwise and took us to a full successful settlement. Thanks for your help!
Many thanks to Erika and Scott for helping me through this entire process. I found everyone at the firm comforting, transparent, trustworthy, and highly competent from the first day I started my conversation with Scott. If you are looking for highly competent and efficient legal help with a lemon that you may have purchased, these are the guys you should be talking to first.
I would strongly recommend working with Kaufman & Kavicky LLP. I worked most with Erika Kavicky and was impressed with her professionalism and willingness to answer my questions and keep me informed throughout the process. Overall, Erika and her team did a great job seeking the best resolution for my case in a good timeframe.
After spending our hard earned (and many years) of savings on our dream truck and investing thousands in how we needed it to be for our profession we discovered it was a lemon. We were distraught beyond belief. After getting nothing but the run around from Dodge for months we decided it was time to seek professional and expertise legal assistance from someone that specialized in lemon law. One of our biggest concerns was the accessories and investments we made after purchasing the truck. After much research Scott Kauffman was the name that kept coming up in actually getting his clients money back for after market accessories.We met with Scott who was very friendly, professional and decided to hire him immediately. Throughout the whole process he was easily accessible for communication and kept us up to date as the case progressed. In the end we received all the money we had spent on the truck and a bit more for the accessories as well. Everyone else told us we didn’t stand a chance in getting money back for our accessories……. Scott Kauffman proved them wrong.Thank you Scott for your help with this nightmare of a situation. We mean this in the nicest way, but we hope we never need to see you again for professional assistance and are happy to refer anyone to you that is in need of your services.We can’t speak highly enough about Scott Kauffman and California Lemon Lawyers
Try not to listen to people who tell you to go directly through GM (or any other automotive manufacturer) for a buy-back on a car you feel is a lemon. The help you will get with these Lemon Lawyers and the entire staff (think Breana) is well worth the wait. Be patient, GM took many months to settle, thats just the way they are (no surprise there). The California Lemon Lawyers will hold your hand, guide you, answer your emails. You will have a success story like I did. Be patient.
Even though Mr. Kaufman wasn’t able to help me due to me living in another state, he was very prompt to respond to my request for help. I am impressed that he was quick to answer me and express his concern for my case. Mr. Kaufman then went above and sent me links to help in my search for an attorney in my state. Thank you for your kindness and concern.
I reached out to this law firm for help with a used car purchase. The issue with the company has been resolved, so I am no longer in needed of assistance at this time. I will keep the law firm in mind if I have problems in the future though. The response time was very quick. I received a friendly call and follow-up email from Leilani the same day. I found the video she sent me on the importance of writings very helpful as well. Thank you!
They were incredibly responsive to my inquiry. While they were, ultimately, unable to help me due to the size of my claim (since lawyers are not allowed in small claims court), they still went out of their way to provide me some helpful guidance on how to navigate the small claims process. They certainly did not need to take the time to do that, but they did and I think that speaks volumes to who they are as a firm.
I had a nearly 2-year long ordeal with a very expensive car purchased out of state, having to leverage Federal Consumer Protection Law. Even through the Pandemic and with opposing counsels constant delay tactics, Kaufman & Kavicky stayed on top of my case and achieved the best possible outcome, a full price repurchase of the vehicle. Thank you to Scott and his team for all that they do!
I would like to thank, scott and his team for taking care of me when I had my doubts it was all settled in the end... trust me when I say this I have zero patience and when I finally learned how to be patient all came together and was worth the way thank you guys once again... :)

2023-08-15 23:13:01Erika and team did a great job for us, handling a lemon claim on our leased Audi SUV quickly and painlessly. They were clear about the process, helpful at every step, and achieved a perfect outcome at no cost to us. Cant ask for more than that! Thank you!

2023-05-25 15:57:44Scott came highly recommended through another lawyer, and over the past ten years, I have had the pleasure of using his legal services on multiple occasions. Each time, the outcome exceeded my expectations.Not only has Scott provided me with excellent legal representation, but he has also offered invaluable advice on navigating complex negotiations. As our professional relationship has grown over the years, I have come to appreciate that it extends beyond the typical lawyer-client dynamic. Our occasional conversations and coffee meetings have added a personal touch to our connection.Overall, I am extremely satisfied with Scotts services and appreciate the exceptional outcomes he has achieved for me. I highly recommend his expertise to anyone in need of legal assistance.

2023-06-29 15:47:45Kaufman and Kavicky really out shine some of the first initial thoughts when u think of getting a lawyer because u have too. And I mean that in a positive way, hiring this firm. I dealt with Mr. Kaufmann and I believe I got the best advice and service out there for my situation (if u ever have to go against the number one Electric Vehicle Company in the country ..this is the firm to hire)… So I think you should give them a call and check what they also can do for you. Best of luck. Sid

2023-05-30 18:28:50I am so glad I contacted Kaufman & Kavicky to help me with my Chevy Bolt. I was getting nowhere with the GM. I was attracted to this firm given all the 5 star reviews, and I can confirm the high ratings are warranted! Erica did a great job managing my case and delivering a great outcome. It costs nothing and results in a much better outcome than trying to go it alone.

2023-05-16 20:36:45This firm was very helpful helping me with my truck issues. The process was very easy and straight forward. They helped with my lemon law case. I am very grateful for their help, and they made sure it was easy and not stressful. If I ever encounter another issue that involves a lemon law claim I will definitely contact them again

2023-05-16 13:08:10I am an attorney, practicing for more than 40 years. I have known Scott Kaufman since well before either of us joined the CA bar. I have always known him to be successful in the challenges that he takes on. His firm mirrors his commitment to consumers and I know this as my wife and I were clients. We were more than pleased at the result he was able to obtain in helping my family get out of our lemon BMW and obtaining significant compensation to boot. I would not hesitate to recommend his services to friends and family alike. There are plenty of large mill type firms out there to choose if you do not seek personal attention to your matter. That said, those larger firms are probably learning the lemon law from trailblazers like Scott Kaufman. He and his firm comes with the highest recommendation I can give.

2023-05-17 07:37:35I had purchased new car and one of the seats started wearing out in less than a year. I took it to the dealership and had the seat repaired under warranty. When I went to pick up my vehicle I found a different completely taken apart and not put back together. I was told to come back later to replace parts they broke on another seat. This went back and forth six times over the course of a year. The seat issue started to get worse with each repair. Bolts and screws were missing and clips were broken. Thats when I decided to contact Kaufman and Kavicky. They helped me in the past with another vehicle at a different dealership. They helped me get a settlement that allowed me to trade the car in for a different one. There were times when I didnt feel safe letting passengers rid with me because the seat was not completely attached.
