settlement on behalf of residential real estate purchasers advancing a non-disclosure claim against the sellers.

Precise and complex legal advocacy is a mainstay of Jonathan’s approach. In this regard, he has successfully represented litigants on appeal and has 
two published decisions by the California Court of Appeal in real estate law: Ponce v. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (2018) 21 Cal.App.5th 253 and Rossetta v. CitiMortgage, Inc. (2017) 18 Cal.App.5th 628.

I contacted Business & Real Estate Law Firm PC in May and was promptly connected with Jonathan A. Sanders. From the very beginning, Mr. Sanders impressed me with his responsiveness, professionalism, and thorough attention to detail. He took the time to carefully review my real estate documents and provided clear, practical guidance every step of the way. Mr. Sanders was fair and instilled confidence throughout the process. It is rare to find an attorney who is both approachable and highly knowledgeable, but Mr. Sanders exemplifies both. I felt assured knowing my interests were well protected. I will absolutely continue to use his services for all future real estate transactions, and I highly recommend Mr. Sanders and Business & Real Estate Law Firm PC to anyone seeking reliable and trustworthy legal support.

I was fortunate to have Jonathan on my side as a legal counselor. He provided me wise advice in difficult legal matters. He is a quick responder, but most importantly his expertise in drawing up business contracts and in real estate matters is second to none. Jonathan will be my first choice in any future real estate investment or in any legal issues.
