Residential and Commercial Real Estate Law
Ms. Stein represents both buyers and sellers, property management firms, businesses and individuals in all types of commercial and residential real estate matters, including services in real estate transactions, leases, contract and deed drafting, negotiation, real estate litigation, partition actions, easement and permit disputes, and other land use issues. Susan Stein holds a California real estate broker's license.

Personal Injury Claims
Ms. Stein helps clients who have been injured, either as a result of a motor vehicle accident or by the negligence of another, to get their lives back on track. Personal injuries not only cause physical pain but often also emotional and financial hardship through loss of work, medical bills, and the stress placed upon family members and loved ones. When an accident happens, one's life is sometimes forever changed, and the effects can linger for a lifetime. Susan Stein is an aggressive and skilled attorney who is not afraid to fight for the monetary settlement and peace of mind that her clients deserve.
Estate Planning
Susan Stein provides for all aspects of estate planning, including trusts, powers of attorney, life insurance, family limited partnerships, educational trusts, health care directives, and services in regard to retirement and insurance planning. Ms. Stein assists clients in planning for a sound financial future while getting their current affairs in order, providing that intangible yet important peace of mind.
Debt Negotiation and Collections
Debt problems are increasingly common in today's economy. Even the most responsible of individuals can run into troubles and end up in overwhelming debt due to unforeseeable circumstances. If a client is facing creditor harassment and accumulating debt, Susan D. Stein can assist in negotiations with creditors. She also represents creditors in debt collection and enforcement of judgments.
Contract disputes include collection matters, such as default on a promissory note or a customer's failure to pay for services or products. Disputes can also arise over breach of real estate contracts (e.g., for monetary damages arising from a purchase and sale of property or a suit for specific performance to force the performance of the contract; residential or commercial leases), and for breach of any other type of contract where someone is entitled to compensation for monetary damages. Ms. Stein represents the injured or wronged party (or parties), or can defend those being charged with a breach of contract.
Landlord-Tenant Disputes
Ms. Stein represents both tenants and landlords in eviction ("unlawful detainer") actions and breach of lease litigation (generally, commercial leases). While a residential eviction is, typically, straight forward, the law is very precise in this area, and every "I" must be dotted and every "T" crossed. Ms. Stein will always attempt, when feasible, to resolve a lease dispute through negotiations. It is not uncommon for Ms. Stein to work out a resolution between her client and the other party, which saves the client attorney's fees and also helps reduce the stress and aggravation of protracted litigation.
