Definitions

  • “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our” means Tojarieh Law Firm, PC and its DBAs, including, but not limited to, Stonebrook Law.

  • “Websites” means any and all of the websites owned, operated, or controlled by Company.

Attorney Advertising

The information on the Websites is attorney advertising. Our managing attorney is Joseph Tojarieh. The address for Mr. Tojarieh is 10250 Constellation Blvd., Suite 100, Los Angeles, CA 90067.

Specialization

The Websites list areas in which our law firm practices. However, we make no claim of “expertise,” “specialization” or “board certification.” If a lawyer in our law firm is properly board certified in a practice area, it will be so indicated in the lawyer’s biography.

Jurisdictions

The state(s) in which a lawyer in our law firm is licensed to practice law will be so indicated on the lawyer’s biography. By posting and/or maintaining this website and its contents, our law firm does not intend to solicit legal business from clients located in states or jurisdictions where our law firm or our individual attorneys are not licensed or authorized to practice law.

Languages

We may advertise that we provide assistance to clients who speak a foreign language. In many instances, a non-attorney support staff, and not an actual attorney, will be translating. If a lawyer of the firm speaks a certain language fluently, it will be so indicated on the lawyer’s biography.

No Attorney-Client Relationship

The information on the Websites is not intended to create and does not create an attorney-client relationship. Should you happen to send an e-mail or any other form of communication to us, you agree that sending us such communication will not make you a client of our firm.

Not Legal Advice

Our law firm has placed the information on the Websites as a service to the general public. Use of the Websites does not in any manner constitute an attorney‐client relationship between our law firm and the user. While the information on the Websites is about legal issues, it is not intended as legal advice or as a substitute for the particularized advice of your own lawyer. Therefore, no person should act or rely on any information in the Websites without seeking the advice of an attorney.

The Websites could include inaccuracies or typographical errors. The materials on the Websites are not guaranteed to be correct, complete, or up‐to‐date. The articles and information on the Websites are provided “as is,” without warranty of any kind, either express or implied, including but not limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, or non‐infringement.

Confidentiality

Any use of the Websites whatsoever will not establish an attorney‐client relationship. Thus, do not use the Websites to submit confidential or time‐sensitive information. Whether you are a new or existing client, we cannot represent you on any new matter until we have made a determination that there is no conflict of interest and that we are willing and able to accept new engagement. Unless and until we have explicitly informed you we are willing and able to accept your new matter, do not send us any information or documents that you consider private or confidential.

No Fee Guarantee

We take our cases on “contingency fee” basis. What this means is that you do not pay us any attorney fees up front. Instead, in most cases, we obtain a percentage of whatever monetary recovery we obtain for you. In some instances, we obtain recoveries that include non-monetary items (e.g., job reinstatement). In those cases, our retainer agreement will set forth what we earn. Further, in a few cases, such as when we are hired solely to review a severance agreement, we may obtain a percentage of the severance. Moreover, in the event that we secure an attorney fee award, we obtain the higher of either our contingency percentage or the attorney fee award.

If we do not recover anything for you, you are not obligated to pay us any attorney fees. However, if you decide to no longer pursue your case or terminate our services prior to the conclusion of your case, we will still be entitled to the value of our services, as agreed upon in our retainer agreement.

In addition to taking our cases on a contingency fee basis, we advance all case costs. Unlike attorney fees, which are fees for the attorney’s time, case costs are out-of-pocket expenses a party incurs in handling a matter, such as court filing costs, reporter costs, etc. Like with attorney fees, if we do not obtain a recovery for you, you are not obligated to reimburse us for our costs. However, in the event that we lose your case at trial, you will be liable for the costs of the defendant(s). Moreover, if you decide to no longer pursue your case or terminate our services prior to the conclusion of your case, we will still be entitled to the costs that we expended on your case. Our retainer agreement will have more detailed information about attorney fees and case costs.

Success Rate/No Guarantee

We consider a case to be a “successful” one if we obtained a recovery in that case. Since the client must ultimately authorize any settlement, when a case settles, the client is generally satisfied with the outcome of the case and, therefore, we consider that case to have been resolved successfully.

Please be advised that the results achieved in any given case depend on a variety of factors—including the specific factual and legal circumstances, the ability of opposing counsel, and, often, unexpected developments beyond the control of any client or lawyer. We cannot guarantee a specific result in any legal matter.

Client Testimonials or Endorsements

Client testimonials or endorsements do not constitute a guarantee, warranty, or prediction regarding the outcome of your legal matter.

Actor Portrayals

Some photographs on this website include actor portrayals of lawyers or clients.

Logos and Graphics of Awards or Memberships

The Websites display certain logos, awards, and graphics of entities, including attorney organizations, bar associations, and courts. However, none of the contents of the Websites or our advertisements should be attributed to any of these entities. All statements are solely our own.

Offices

Although we have satellite offices throughout California, our primary office is located at 10250 Constellation Blvd., Suite 100, Los Angeles, CA 90067.
