We're Not Just Lawyers,
We're Problem Solvers
Legal matters are all too easy to misstep. After an injury, many victims accept compensation far below what they are truly owed – or make a single misstatement that bars them from receiving any compensation at all. If not managed correctly, a business dispute can lead to litigation that takes on a life of its own, sapping time and resources while casting a long shadow over the future.

Our Affiliations and Accolades
Featured Litigation Services
Contract Lawyer
Contract disputes sap time and money from business operations, draining resources better devoted to building your brand. The proven litigators at our San Diego law firm provide both plaintiffs and defendants with effective and vigorous representation. If you're struggling with breach of contract disputes, incomplete agreements, shareholder disputes, purchase and sale agreements, or other types of disputes involving business litigation, our lawyers can use their insight from large law firms to resolve the issue.
Employment Lawyer
California employment laws are often unique and frequently change. Our attorneys understand the finer points of labor and employment issues and are well-positioned to help employees and employers create the balance needed in the workplace. Our lawyers have represented numerous plaintiffs in employment-related cases against large companies. They are also skilled in helping small businesses protect themselves by proactively reviewing company policies and documents to minimize their legal exposure.
Personal Injury Lawyer
When you are injured due to another party's negligent actions, you deserve compensation for the physical, emotional, and financial harm you have suffered. But the payments offered by insurance companies are all too often far below what you actually need and deserve. Our personal injury attorneys will fight for a fair settlement, and are prepared to go to trial if necessary to win the compensation you need to move forward.
Proven Results
$2.3 Million Settlement
Our attorneys assisted in the representation of multiple elderly plaintiffs defrauded in a Ponzi scheme. The case, which included a four-month jury trial, resulted in more than $2.3 million awarded by the jury for the senior citizens.
Successful Defense
Our San Diego law firm successfully defended clients in a case in which almost $1 million hung in the balance. The case involved private equity investments with a securities brokerage firm, and the plaintiffs were demanding a six-figure settlement. Our attorneys won all of their pre-trial motions, which led to a nominal settlement and the dismissal of the lawsuit.
Thousands Won for Students
In a class-action lawsuit, our San Diego law firm won hundreds of thousands of dollars in restitution for more than 2,000 California paramedic students in a case against the National College of Technical Instruction (NCTI).
"Mr. Landay assisted my dad and I with a case a couple years ago and we have not forgotten about this man. He was very thorough, direct, and helpful throughout the entire process. My dad doesn’t tend to trust many attorneys, but ended up trusting Mr. Landay due to the professionalism we experienced from him." Melvin
