My experience has been really great. Cary is very knowledgeable, and makes me feel heard. In a situation that seemed insane, he really had my back. His help is extremely valuable in the advice he offers. Also he and his team were really quick to call me back. He’s a good person to have in your corner.

Cary and Kletter Law was able to address matters with my rental property fast and effectively. Thank you for the help!

Cary is by far the most thorough, thoughtful, knowledgable, professional, and ethical lawyer I've ever worked with. With how expensive hiring legal representation can sometimes be, I always want to feel that my lawyer cares about me as a client and that I'm getting exceptional value. From day one I've always felt both from Cary. If you find yourself in need of legal support, I couldn't recommend Cary and his team enough!

Very helpful would definitely recommend attorney Cary Kletter.

I was mentally exhausted for one year and want to warn anyone who will be bothered by noise and cold & unresponsive landlord. This is a review for an apartment at 148 Southwood Ctr Apt 4, South San Francisco, rented from Cary Kletter of Kletter Law. However, to be fair, here are some good things about the apartment. The pros: * lots of sunlight during the day and the whole house is well-lit with ceiling lights during the night. * Washer/dryer is one of the best compared to other places. (Samsung front-load large size) * Nice wood flooring throughout. * Nice floor plan with no waste of space * Tons of kitchen cabinets for storage * Double-paned glasses cuts outs voices. (*but the building structure itself allows all kind of low-frequency sounds to pass through the walls) * Good ventilation due to having a relatively stronger kitchen vent than normal and lots of windows * Rent is relatively cheaper than the surrounding managed apartment considering its square footage and number of bedrooms Here are the downsides of it that made me moved after living for a year Unresponsive, unfriendly and very cold landlord (Cary Kletter, from Kletter Law) * Always ignored my first few message inquiries and only responded after subsequent attempts days apart. * Asked about electric car charging in garage, give an estimated cost of $400 and refused to give how he got the estimate. He falsely and unfriendly assumed I don’t want to pay for charging * Complained to the landlord regarding the garage noise issue and he just acknowledged with a single cold sentence. * Request for maintenance on dishwasher, team came once and said to order for parts and no follow up afterwards. * Quoted $900 to $1600 deductions from security deposits for what should have been considered normal wear and tear for a few patched drilled holes. * Sid the leasing agent was nice and courteous when helping us moving in but the landlord Cary, who handles any issue/inquiry during the lease, is not a nice person. * In addition, beware as this landlord did not return the security deposit within 21 days after move-out and only mail the check one day late when a demand letter is sent. Extremely poor noise insulation. I constantly have panic attacks for the past year and didn’t have good sleep on most nights. These are some of the example instances of noise I observed. * People shouting on the street at 11 PM * Garage downstairs vibrating the floor at 12 PM when neighbors get home * The unit is on the path of airplane runways, and thus airplanes rumbles all day until 2 AM * Car speeding with loud engine at 2 AM that awaken me * Trash pickup truck beeping and making loud noise at 6 AM * Cars alarm beeping every now and then * Will hear any non-electric car passing by * Washer regular draining cycle shake the whole house like it might fall apart. * Hear every movement from neighbors next door despite them walking just normally. * Hear cabinet slamming from next door despite they’re being closed normally. * Music from neighbors downstairs and one-unit-away vibrates the floors and shared walls. * Hear ravens fighting from the ceiling/rooftop Other cons: * Moldy smell that will not go away despite a dehumidifier and air purifiers running every day for the past year. * It’s super cold most of the times as the thermal insulation is bad * Strong jet fuel smell on non-windy days (about 4 weeks in total last year) * Bathroom tap water occasionally flows reddish brown water every month. It happens during the first few minutes of turning on the tap and becomes clear afterwards. * Marijuana smell that leaks through the building seams despite all windows closed * 7-eleven truck unloading engine noise for an hour every 3 days

Cary Kletter has been a trusted advisor to me for many years . His professionalism , diligence and knowledge is invaluable . I recommend anyone to him for top notch legal advice .

I was so glad I consulted with Paul Lee on a complex issue that I was having with the owners of a property that I rent. Paul’s expertise far exceeded anything I had found by Googling, reviewing California State landlord-tenant laws, or asking questions of landlord-tenant attorneys on the Internet. After our consultation, I left with a clear plan for how to proceed with my issue. Paul also provided me with clarity on what to do if things should get worse with the property owners. Paul is also super easy to talk with. I appreciated that as an immunocompromised person he wore a mask during our in-person meeting in solidarity with masked me. If I should have further questions on the current issue or future real estate issues, I will not hesitate to reach out to Paul. Also, I want to give a shout out to Bryce who set up the initial consultation for me and who promptly answered many questions along the way via email. All around great legal office!

We unfortunately ran into an issue with a contractor that worked on our home and contacted Finkelstein & Fujii LLP to see what could be done about our issue. Irene Fujii was knowledgeable and clear with what our options were and what the potential outcomes could be. We were told that sometimes this type of case could last years, but with Irene's expertise we were able to get it settled in a timely manner. She fought aggressively for us, and we are very satisfied with the outcome. I hope never to be in the same situation again, but if we are, we know who to call. We will forever be grateful for Finkelstein & Fujii LLP (specifically Irene & Bryce) for their hard work on our behalf.

I was referred to Cary by a mutual connection in the technology industry. I reached out to Cary for guidance on a business situation. Cary's expertise in the matter was evident; we discussed the key points of the situation and Cary highlighted the major areas for consideration. I greatly appreciated Cary's objectivity and no-nonsense approach; you can trust the guidance he is providing you.

I received incredibly responsive feedback on an urgent employment law matter and the advice was in incisive and spot on. Oh, and it came over the weekend. I was so grateful! This firm gets my highest recommendation!

I recently sought legal advice from Cary, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. His expertise, clarity, and genuine concern for my situation were evident throughout our interactions. I highly recommend Cary to anyone in need of top-notch legal guidance. Thank you, Cary, for your invaluable support!

Cary referred me to a probate sale and it was an amazing experience working with him. He is reachable, knowledgeable and very professional. Thank you Cary and hope to work with you again soon.
