Expert guidance through a complex commercial lease dispute

Our company retained Thomas Umberg to handle a contentious commercial lease dispute that threatened to derail our expansion plans. From the outset, his deep knowledge of California real estate litigation was evident. He didn't just recite the law; he explained the strategic implications of each option, drawing on his 17 years of focused experience in this exact field. His background, including his recent recognition as a 'Lawyer of the Year' in real estate litigation, gave us immense confidence. The opposing counsel was aggressive, but Mr. Umberg's methodical approach and firm negotiation posture secured a settlement that protected our financial interests and allowed the project to proceed. He and his team at Umberg Zipser were always prepared and professional. The only minor critique would be that during the busiest phases, communication from junior staff could sometimes lag by a day, but Mr. Umberg himself was always accessible for critical updates. His strategic counsel was worth the investment, and I would not hesitate to recommend him for complex real estate matters.
