Frequently Asked Questions
What qualifies as a lemon under California law?
Under California's lemon law, a vehicle is typically considered a lemon if it has a defect covered by warranty that substantially impairs its use, value, or safety, and the manufacturer has failed to repair it after a reasonable number of attempts (usually 2-4 attempts depending on the issue) or the vehicle has been out of service for repairs for more than 30 days.
Do I need to pay upfront costs for lemon law representation?
Most lemon law attorneys, including those in San Jose, work on a contingency fee basis, meaning you don't pay unless we successfully recover compensation for you. The manufacturer typically covers legal fees if your case is successful.
How long does a lemon law case typically take?
Lemon law cases can vary in duration. Many cases settle within 3-6 months through negotiation, while litigation may take 6-12 months or longer depending on complexity, manufacturer response, and court schedules in the San Jose area.
What compensation can I receive in a lemon law case?
Potential compensation includes a full repurchase or replacement of your vehicle, reimbursement of down payments and monthly payments, repair costs, and attorney's fees. Some cases may also include additional damages depending on California law and case specifics.
