# Lemon Law Now (Shainfeld Law, PC)

> A California lemon law firm based in Los Angeles (Beverly Hills), representing consumers statewide who have purchased or leased defective vehicles. The firm handles manufacturer buyback and repurchase claims under the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act (California's lemon law) on a contingency-fee basis, with no out-of-pocket costs to the client; manufacturer fee-shifting provisions mean attorney fees are paid by the opposing manufacturer when the client prevails.

The firm is led by Brett Shainfeld, founder and principal of Shainfeld Law, PC. Mr. Shainfeld has more than 13 years of legal experience handling thousands of lemon law cases across California. Before focusing exclusively on consumer protection law, he gained civil litigation experience representing large corporate defendants, giving him insight into how manufacturers evaluate and defend claims. He holds a J.D. from Loyola Law School, Los Angeles (2006), a B.A. from UC Davis (2000), and is a California Certified Mediator. He carries an AVVO rating of 10.0 and has been selected to The National Trial Lawyers Top 100.

General California lemon law context the firm's matters commonly involve:
- Governing statute: Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act (Cal. Civ. Code §§ 1790 et seq.).
- Lemon law presumption: Under Cal. Civ. Code §1793.22, a vehicle is presumed a lemon if the same defect persists after a reasonable number of repair attempts (generally 2 attempts for serious safety defects, or 4 attempts for other defects) or if the vehicle is out of service for 30 or more cumulative days, all within 18 months or 18,000 miles of delivery.
- Remedies: Manufacturer repurchase (buyback) at full purchase price minus a usage offset, or replacement with a comparable vehicle.
- Fee shifting: Prevailing consumers are entitled to recover attorney fees and costs from the manufacturer, making legal representation effectively free to the client.
- 2025 legislative update: Assembly Bill 1755 (signed September 2024, effective 2025) introduced new pre-lawsuit notice and mandatory arbitration procedures; Senate Bill 26 (April 2025) further refined those changes.
