Meet our Lemon Law Attorneys

At Norman Taylor & Associates we have a team of experienced Lemon Law attorneys who know the California Lemon Law inside and out. And we’re here to help you.
If you’re one of the unfortunate residents of California who has purchased either a defective vehicle or product, you have recourse under California Lemon Law. We represent consumers in Los Angeles, Imperial, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, San Diego, Ventura, and Santa Barbara Counties.

Eight Thousand Lemon Law Cases and Multiple Years of Experience
Our history of successful cases has established our reputation as a firm of Lemon Law attorneys. So much so that manufacturers don’t want to go up against us in court. They know that the longer they fight a case, the more time we spend on the case. This drives up the attorney fees and when we win, they have to pay. For this reason, manufacturers will often settle claims with Norman Taylor & Associates quickly, and early on.


Our Mission: Getting your refund or replacement

Unlike some law firms, our lemon law attorneys won’t litigate your case if it is not necessary. Our mission is simply this: to get our clients out of their lemon vehicles with refunds or replacements, as quickly as possible. Over 95% of our cases are settled without going to trial, and of the 5% that do, we have won more than half of those. Overall we have a 98% success rate.
