Consumer Lawyers for California

Handling Consumer Law, Civil Litigation, Real Estate, Bankruptcy, Personal Injury, Medical Malpractice, Estate Planning, and More in Southern California

The law firm of Fransen & Molinaro, LLP is always adapting its areas of practice to the current state of our local economy and legal landscape. As part of meeting the needs of individuals and small business in Southern California, our practice includes representation for:

(1) CONSUMERS WHO ARE VICTIMS OF FRAUD, NEGLIGENCE, OR BREACH OF CONTRACT - Many individuals and small businesses find themselves being bullied by scam artists who lie, cheat and, steal or larger businesses who use their size to act as bullies. Fransen & Molinaro is there to help even the playing fields by providing aggressive and professional representation for the "little guy." If you are the victim of a contract gone bad, fraud, or negligence, please contact Fransen & Molinaro to learn how we can help.

(2) REAL ESTATE NIGHTMARES - As brokers and attorneys, Nathan Fransen, Esq. and Paul J. Molinaro, Esq. provide aggressive representation to all of the individuals and businesses involved in real estate transactions. We represent buyers, sellers, tenants, landlords, borrowers, lenders, agents, brokers (real estate and mortgage), property inspectors, escrow officers, appraisers, and more. Our services include litigation (plaintiff and defense), Department of Real Estate defense, breach of sales contract, listing agreement disputes, all mortgage matters, failure to disclose defects, short sale contract review, commission disputes, protection of seller's rights, and white collar real estate crime defense.

(3) INDIVIDUALS WITH SERIOUS FINANCIAL PROBLEMS - As the number of individuals faced with overwhelming debt continues to increase, we continue to offer representation to people in bankruptcy matters (Chapter 7 or 13) as well as well as provide defense against creditors who have sued in court or who have threatened to sue.

(4) INDIVIDUALS ABUSED BY DEBT COLLECTORS - We also represent borrowers who suffered harassment by creditors. If calls, letters, and other collection actions violate the laws of California or the United States which are in place to protect borrowers, we know how to stop the abuse and obtain compensation for victims. Courts take these matters seriously and so do we.

(5) PERSONAL INJURY - If you have been seriously injured in a motor vehicle (car, truck, motorcycle) accident, in a commercial building, or by a defective product, Fransen & Molinaro can help you learn how to recover for your losses. We represent victims of motor vehicle accidents against negligent or drunk drivers and victims of defective products against the makers and sellers of those products.

(6) CRIMINAL DEFENSE - Attorney Rick Morrow has been practicing criminal defense law for over a decade. He handles matters involving charges for DUI, white collar crimes (financial crimes), burglary, assault, battery, and other serious crimes.

(7) ESTATE PLANNING (WILLS AND LIVING TRUSTS) - As the population of our local community grew at a record rate over the least few years, many of our local residents are young parents who have no will or trust and no knowledge of what they need and retirees with outdated wills and trusts. We provide the advice needed to determine what documents are necessary and then draft those documents.

(8) MEDICAL MALPRACTICE - If you have suffered a catastrophic injury as a result of the actions of a medical professional, please call Physician and Attorney Paul J. Molinaro, M.D., J.D. for a consultation.

(9) REAL ESTATE PROFESSIONALS' COMPLIANCE TRAINING - Because many real estate professionals find themselves named as defendants simply as a result of not knowing the laws which apply to them, Fransen & Molinaro, LLP offers training seminars and education to the staff of real estate, mortgage, and escrow offices. In some cases, our seminars are free. Please call us for details.
