Jaime C Uziel – Sheppard-Uziel Law Firm

I cannot say enough about Jaime Uziel. I was referred to him through my real estate agent’s parent company when I found myself in a contractual mess involving a home purchase. Jaime could not have been more patient, helpful, reasonable, but forceful; he advised on what my options were, listened to my concerns, helped me determine what outcome was best, and then tirelessly and professionally advocated for me, even while the lawyers on the others side were behaving like children. I came away with the best possible outcome, and we even managed to have a few laughs about the craziness of the situation in the meantime. I couldn’t imagine working with someone better.

Jaime is a great, client-​centric attorney! I received solid advice, and Jaime’s consulting time /​fee were time and money well-​spent. Needed legal advice — and wasn’t sure about representation — on a landlord-​tenant matter and liked the knowledgeable, down-​to-​earth, practical approach he took explaining what was involved and my options to handle the problem. I opted to consult with him and handle the matter directly rather than retain him — but even that decision was made after talking to him about it and he candidly and honestly told me we should be able to proceed without retaining him. His advice was clear and his review of our draft documents very prompt. I recommend him without hesitation.

Jaime is so helpful and considerate. While he could have helped with our situation, he suggested that we use another highly recommended attorney in order to keep our costs in check due to location and travel time. Jaime is a great guy to work with!

I have not yet retained Jaime, but having dealt with many attorneys over the years, I already have the feeling that Jaime is exceptionally competent, his fees are fair, and he will be a good guy to work with while he looks after my interests.
The reason I say this is he spent more than 20 minute explaining professionally, politely and patiently at no charge what he could do for us in our particular situation. Of course most attorneys offer free consultations, as this is how they get new clients, but I found our conversation to be way above average judging by how some of my free consultation calls have gone with some other attorneys regarding other matters in the past. I am impressed and will be sure to update this review after my real estate deal closes and I have had some genuine attorney-​client interactions. I have certain expectations, and judging by what others say about Jaime, here on Unilocal I don’t think I will be disappointed.

Jaime recently helped me complete a FSBO, and I couldn’t be happier. Jaime was responsive, informative, punctual and prepared everything for me to make the transaction go efficiently and as thorough as necessary to protect us from liabilities, but was also mindful of our and his time, so left out all unnecessary stuff. He is on top of things and also has a sense of humor, which made the transaction a pleasure to conduct alongside Jaime Uziel! I would definitely use him again!

Our matter involved a tenant buy-​out and we were very pleased with the way Jaime handled the case. He discussed our options and was very honest and realistic about our situation. He was prompt, responsive and treated both us and our tenants in a professional and courteous manner. We were happy with the results and I would definitely recommend Jaime to others for landlord-​tenant/​real estate matters.

I had been looking at properties to open a new business. After a long process I finally found the property that looked perfect… and then I was handed a 47 page lease. Feeling completely overwhelmed and having a real estate agent that was less than helpful, I found Jaime! His attention to detail, quick response time, and terrific advice were the reasons for my success in getting a lease that was more then fair. I received 6 months free rent and I’m sure that wouldn’t have happened without Jaime’s guidance.

We could not have navigated our tricky landlord tenant issues without Jamie. We spoke to Jamie even before we bought our house. He met with us and got us up to speed on San Francisco law. After we got the property, Jamie was with us every step of the way. He always got back to us same day. We owe the successful conclusion of our situation to his wise and calm counsel.

Jaime is fantastic! Pleasant, helpful and honest. He responds quickly to every message and is extremely knowledgeable on the matters pertaining to my situation, so I feel positive and secure with the advice he provides. My issues with the new landlords are ongoing, but with Jaime on my side, I feel confident and relaxed while dealing with a stressful situation.

I was very pleased with the folks here at Sheppard, Uziel, Sussman & Rosen. I worked with Jaime on a Tenant/​Landlord issue and not only was he responsive in a timely manner, but he was extremely knowledgeable and honest about our potential case. He worked diligently to discuss the different options we had, and levels of support. I will not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who needs help in Real Estate law. Honesty really makes a difference when you need to consult with an attorney and Jaime helped us really understand what our rights were and how we could move forward. We are grateful for his expertise!

I have had a few occasions over the past year where I was about to hire an attorney and didn’t have a clue as to how I would go about the process or even if I should. On both occasions I turned to Jaime Uziel as he is one of the only working lawyers I know who I could rely on to point me in the right direction or to help me discern whether or not I even had a case. In both instances, instead of trying to sign me up on the billable hours track, he basically gave me the information I needed to know that eventually led me to not hiring a lawyer, but going a separate route all together. I will use him in the future if I need legal advice or to hire an attorney because I am impressed with his honesty, his character, his passion and the fact that I didn’t feel like I was a commodity while talking with him, but a true human being.

Jaime Uziel has provided excellent legal advice regarding several landlord-​tenant issues. He has always given me an honest appraisal of the situation and guided me in the right direction which ended up with great results. He is very professional and always explains things in a very clear, easy to understand manner.
