How the Lemon Law Claim Process Works
The California Lemon Law protects consumers like you who have purchased a car or truck that has a defect or defects that substantially impair the use, value or safety of the vehicle. If your car is determined to be a lemon, the automaker must buy back your vehicle. In some cases, you may also be eligible for civil penalties. The process is easy and hassle-free:
SCHEDULE A FREE CONSULTATION
When you contact our lemon law attorneys, you will receive a free, no-obligation consultation during which you discuss your situation, and we evaluate your case. All our fees are paid by automakers.
WE GO TO WORK FOR YOU
We are determined to hold big automakers accountable for selling defective vehicles to California consumers like you. If possible, we fight for incidental damages and civil penalties in addition to a buyback so you get maximum recovery.
WE KEEP YOU INFORMED
When you are our client, your claim will be handled by an accomplished lemon law attorney who keeps you advised on progress every step of the way.
YOU GET RESULTS
We conclude a successful claim with the automaker, and we are not afraid to go to trial if necessary to get you the money you are owed.

How Much is My Lemon Law Claim Worth?
If your car is a lemon, the manufacturer must either replace your defective vehicle with a brand new one or buy back your vehicle. The manufacturer is also required to reimburse you for incidental and consequential costs (e.g. , the cost of renting a vehicle or towing) you incurred while the dealer was attempting to repair your vehicle.
In addition, if we can prove that the manufacturer willfully violated the California Lemon Law, the manufacturer may also be required to pay you a civil penalty of up to two times your actual damages. The automaker is also responsible for paying your attorneys’ fees and costs, which means you pay nothing to us until we win your claim.
There are also steps you can take to protect yourself. Keep copies of all repair bills, maintain records of any incidental expenses, and document all communications with the dealer and/or manufacturer. Our legal team will rely on this evidence to support your claim. Above all, we will help you recover all the compensation you deserve, whether through negotiation or litigation.
