“Thank you for your steady hand at the tiller! Without your wisdom, guidance, advice and responsiveness we would still be at square one, looking at months of delays until closing. As my sisters husband, a retired Delta Airlines 777 Captain from North Carolina told her, you’ve been on this case ‘like a pit bull on a pork chop’. You are the best and it’s been a genuine pleasure working with you. Thanks for all that you’ve done!”
Through Kim’s expert guidance and diligence, our client successfully obtained the full refund of deposits they were due.
The client was so satisfied, they left a glowing review on Avvo for Kim. Read that review here.
We recently represented a commercial property owner in Oakland that was sued for Quiet Title by the neighboring property owner. The neighbor claimed an easement over our client’s property consisting of an adjoining strip of land . The neighbor wanted to use the land as parking for the neighbor’s adjoining commercial business. Our client’s tenant, a restaurant, needed the strip of land for parking as well. The lawsuit was filed after our client fenced off the area to prevent plaintiff’s use.

If you are a property owner and have commissioned work to be done to your property, you may have heard of a mechanic’s lien. This type of claim comes with the potential for financial loss on the part of the property owner. If a lien has been recorded on your Bay Area property, you should consult an experienced attorney as soon as possible. Read on for an introduction to mechanic’s liens and how they work:
As California commercial collections attorneys representing businesses trying to collect outstanding debts, we have been involved in several cases over years where aggressive litigation tactics taken early in the case have resulted in positive outcomes for our creditor clients years later.
Whether you have owned your Bay Area property for years or have recently acquired it, you could find yourself dealing with a boundary dispute at some point. If this happens, the best course of action is generally to remain as neutral as possible when the dispute arises. And quickly engage an experienced real estate attorney to represent you, as such disputes can end up in court.
Meera Parikh, a partner at Poniatowski Leding Parikh Law Corporation, recently settled a boundary dispute between two commercial properties in San Leandro that came to light when one property owner made improvement plans that imposed on the other property. In the end, Meera worked with the two sides to negotiate a settlement that avoided a court hearing. Continue reading
Kim Leding, a partner at PLP Law Corporation, recent won a Mechanics Lien settlement on behalf of our client in his dispute with a large company. As a result, he recently posted this review on Kim’s AVVO.com profile. Reprinted here with permission:
Kimberly Leding is an awesome attorney, FULL STOP PERIOD! From our initial consultation, I found Kim to be extremely knowledgeable of the type of case (a release of a Mechanics Lien) I presented to her for help. She was very open with me as she explained the facts, concerns and issues of my case. And, her fee was reasonable.
She was also always prompt with updating me on the status of my case. She never left me wondering as to what’s going on. My legal opponent is a large company. However, Kim swiftly and deftly resolved the case 100% in my favor. She is a legal warrior! I will, and have, recommended her to my friends and business associates.
If in the future, I find myself needing an attorney, I will not hesitate to seek her representation. I wish I could give her 10 stars!
