Starting your Lemon Law claim in California is a straightforward, easy, and FREE process.

Starting your California Lemon Law claim is as simple as contacting the Law Offices of Virginia Lopez directly. You can call from anywhere in California toll free at 1 800 651–8263. You can also email California lemon lawyer Virginia Lopez or use the contact form on the page. All email contacts are answered within 24 hours.

After contacting Virginia Lopez, there are a few questions that will help determine your Lemon Law claim. These questions may include:

  • What is the make, model and year of your vehicle?
  • Was your vehicle purchased or leased in California?
  • If the vehicle was purchased or leased in another state, are you a member of the armed forces?
  • What is the current mileage on the vehicle?
  • How many times has the vehicle been in for warranty repairs?

As well as answering some questions, your lemon law attorney will need to review the following documents. Documents can be sent from anywhere in California via email, fax, or United States Postal Service. The documents to be submitted include:

  • A copy of your vehicle purchase or lease agreement.
  • A copy of your current California registration.
  • Copies of your vehicle repair orders. If you do not happen to have all your vehicle repair orders, you can request a “Warranty Repair History” from the dealership. This document contains the entire repair history of your vehicle including warranty related repairs, non-warranty repairs and maintenance.

The answers to the questions in combination with the necessary documentation will determine that you may either currently have a lemon law case or a possible future claim.

Once a determination of your California lemon law claim is complete, we will contact you immediately. After accepting your claim, the Law Offices of Virginia Lopez will take care of everything else. We will begin by sending the vehicle manufacturer a written demand on your behalf to refund the purchase price or promptly replace the defective vehicle. Often, these demands can be settled within 30 days. In the event your complaint is not settled within 30 days, we will proceed to file a lemon law lawsuit in your county. We will travel to your area and attend any and all court hearings and take care of all other legal matters regarding your case.

The Law Offices of Virginia Lopez represents all California Lemon Law clients on a contingency fee basis. A contingency fee means there is absolutely no out of pocket cost to you for any of the services provided. All of the attorney fees in your lemon law case will be paid by the vehicle manufacturer at the conclusion of the case.
