Clients hire Jimmy because he is a real estate attorney and a licensed broker who has worked inside the industry for over twenty years.

Attorney & Broker in One

Jimmy sees a real estate dispute from several angles at once. He is a California licensed attorney (State Bar #282045), a licensed real estate broker in both California (DRE 01496817) and Nevada (B.1003193.LLC), and a California Association of Realtors mediator. That combination matters: when a seller hides a defect or an agent gives bad advice, Jimmy understands both the law being broken and the industry practices behind it — because he has worked inside that industry for over 20 years. Jimmy is licensed to practice law only in California; his Nevada credential is a real estate broker license, not a law license.

Buying or Investing in Las Vegas?

Jimmy is also a licensed Nevada real estate broker, practicing there through Vegas VIP Me LLC, his own Las Vegas brokerage. If you’re thinking about buying a home or investing in real estate in Las Vegas, reach out to Jimmy for a consultation — email jimmy@lawjn.com. Learn more →

Why Jimmy Does This Work

Jimmy grew up in San Jose’s Evergreen neighborhood, where he watched his own family and family friends get taken advantage of by dishonest or incompetent real estate agents. He couldn’t help them then — but that experience is what drove him to become a real estate attorney. Today, Jimmy has the knowledge and license to do what he couldn’t do as a young man: stand up for people who trusted an agent or seller and got burned. A home is the biggest purchase most people will ever make, and Jimmy believes it’s wrong for a seller or agent to think they can take advantage of a hard-working buyer and get away with it.

Jimmy’s Mission

Jimmy’s mission is simple: protect home buyers in San Jose and throughout Santa Clara County from dishonest sellers and agents, and recover the money his clients were cheated out of. Jimmy also serves clients throughout Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, San Mateo, Alameda, Santa Cruz, and San Francisco Counties, and takes matters elsewhere in California where the facts warrant it.

Beyond litigation, buyers hire Jimmy as their broker on a home purchase — a licensed California broker who reads the contract and the disclosures as the attorney who litigates them — and business owners engage him to purchase commercial property and negotiate lease terms.

Tell Jimmy what happened

If something on this page sounds like your situation, write out what happened and Jimmy will review it personally. There is no charge for the initial case evaluation. Please keep it to the facts of your situation for now — until an attorney-client relationship is established in writing, what you send may not be protected as confidential.

Jimmy represents home buyers in seller non-disclosure, agent misconduct, and earnest money disputes in California, and takes other real estate matters where the facts warrant it. He is based in San Jose and works throughout Santa Clara County and elsewhere in California — the property does not have to be nearby. He is a licensed broker in California and Nevada.

Jimmy reads every submission himself, and you can expect a reply usually within one business day.

Your Name Email Phone (optional) Property Street Address

The address of the property your matter concerns. Jimmy uses it to pull the sales, listing and disclosure history before your call.

City, County & State Date escrow closed (optional)

If the sale has already closed, the date it closed. Some California deadlines run from the closing date and do not extend for late discovery, so this helps Jimmy tell you how much time you have. Leave blank if you are still in escrow.

What is this about? Is anything time-sensitive?

Escrow or contingency dates, a response deadline, or a notice you have already received.

Other parties involved (optional)

Optional, but it helps Jimmy run a conflict check early.

Which best describes you?

Jimmy represents buyers in California real estate disputes. This helps him tell you quickly whether your matter is one he takes.

What happened?

Submitting this form does not create an attorney-client relationship. Please do not send confidential or time-sensitive information until an attorney-client relationship has been established in writing.
