My wife and I had a wonderful interaction with Michele H. We felt as though we could trust her with the recent event we encountered. We are confident in her expertise and are looking very much forward to working with the team at Carlson for the best possible outcome.

I had a one-hour consultation with Mr. McDonald, and he explained everything so clearly that I left with a full understanding of my position, what I could handle on my own and what would require legal representation. Even if you can't afford to hire them for full representation, I highly recommend scheduling at least a consultation. They are extremely knowledgeable and genuinely take the time to guide you. As an educator for many years, I've worked with many great professionals, but Mr. McDonald stood out with the way he broke everything down and explained it so thoroughly. He's just awesome. I highly recommend this firm!

Updated Review - October 2025 Well, I never thought I'd be writing multiple reviews, especially not after retiring, but here I am again and for good reason. As a retired attorney with 32 years of experience, I don't hand out praise lightly. But LS Carlson Law hasn't just earned my trust, they've earned my ongoing gratitude. When I found myself stuck in what felt like a legal mess caused by an overly aggressive HOA, I knew I needed more than just decent representation. I interviewed three other firms. None came close. LS Carlson stood out right away. From that first phone call, I could tell they were different. Sharp, honest, strategic, and down to earth. No gimmicks. No sales pitch. Just real legal help from folks who clearly know what they're doing. These people don't just take on HOA cases, they live and breathe this work. Their founder literally wrote the book BAD HOA and that kind of credibility really matters when you're dealing with board members who think they're untouchable. Once I hired them, they got to work right away. Calls and emails were returned quickly, updates came without me having to ask, and I always felt like I knew where things stood. They were tough when they needed to be and thoughtful in how they approached things. It was clear they were seasoned pros. Now here's what brought me back to write again. Just a couple days ago, I was notified that two of the worst board members had stepped down. Gone. And if that wasn't enough, I received a written apology from the board for all the "turmoil" they caused me and my family. That kind of outcome is rare. It felt good y'all. Real good. S Carlson Law didn't just get me through a bad situation. They helped turn the whole thing around. What truly sets them apart, even beyond the results, is their ethics. In over three decades of practicing law, I've rarely come across a firm that's this principled. Everyone I spoke with treated me with respect and honesty. They reminded me why I went into law in the first place. And I want to applaud LS Carlson Law for their work in the homeowner empowerment space. It really shines through in both their podcast and their book. Those resources kept me informed and gave me a sense of control when everything else felt upside down. Just a great example of a firm going the extra mile for the public. Thanks to LS Carlson, this old Southern lawyer can finally sit back, enjoy the California sunshine, and not worry about a thing. No more legal stress. No more bad actors. Just peace of mind. f you're dealing with an HOA problem, do yourself a favor and give these folks a call. They're the real deal.
