WHAT IS THE CALIFORNIA LEMON LAW?
California Lemon Law Basics
California’s lemon law is one of the strongest in the nation, designed to protect consumers by requiring car companies and consumer goods manufacturers and warrantors to repurchase or replace vehicles or consumer goods that suffer from warranty defects that cannot be fixed in a reasonable number of attempts. In other words, if you buy a product that is a lemon you are entitled to get your money back under the lemon law. In addition, it won’t cost you anything as consumer’s attorney’s fees and costs are paid for by the other side, not the consumer.
Lemon Law Aid was created after its founder spent 13 years defending lemon lawsuits primarily for car, truck, and motorcycle companies. This means that Lemon Law Aid brings unparalleled expertise to lemon law cases, having handled thousands of lemon law cases on the defense side, dozens of which went to trial or arbitration, and hundreds of which went to mediation or some other form of alternative dispute resolution.
With more than 30 years of combined experience, 5,000+ California lemon law claims and 50+ arbitration’s/trials you are in good hands!

TESTIMONIALS
I got paid literally 30x more than what I was originally offered because of joe's advice. "Joe is the man! I called and emailed MULTIPLE firms that just could not care less about hearing my case. He was the only guy willing to help with my very very unique lemon law case. He didn't brush me off and was always responsive to my emails giving me advice every step of the way. I firmly believe that without Joe I would not have ever been able to get my case off the ground. I got paid literally 30x more than what I was originally offered because of Joe's advice. If you read this stop right here and look no further."Matthew C – Chino Hills, CA
These guys are brilliant, humble and hard working. "I needed a lemon law expert to help me when John L turned there back on me with my Silverado 1500. My Chevy was having hard to diagnose electrical issues and jerking forward, whiplashing me and my passengers. Luckily, I had lots of video evidence and Lemon Law Aid brought the fight to GM. These guys are brilliant, humble and hard working. They provided me immediate updates and negotiated a very reasonable settlement (much more than I expected). I am very happy with the results. Great job Joseph Kaufman & Associates."Ruben C – San Francisco, CA
Joe was great, very knowledgeable and got me a settlement bigger than I was expecting on my Chevy Bolt due to battery issues! "Joe was great, very knowledgeable and got me a settlement bigger than I was expecting on my Chevy Bolt due to battery issues. Much more than the total cost of my lease! He was easy to work with, kept me updated throughout the process and answered all of my questions. Will definitely use him again if I have any lemon law issues in the future."Rob B – CA
The Buyback Just Happened! "The buyback just happened a little while ago. It went well. I really wanted to say "Thank You"! You and Lemon Law Aid were an answer to a prayer for us! First and foremost we Thank God! And I wanted to make sure to thank you. Before I found your website and sent you an email to see if you could help, I prayed to God... you answered. Thank you very much we truly appreciate it!"Daniel M – San Diego, CA.
