If your car keeps failing in Sacramento and the manufacturer can’t make it right, you may have a claim under California lemon law. We handle cases across the metro from downtown to the suburbs.
California lemon law applies in Sacramento the same way it applies anywhere in the state. If you bought or leased a car with a serious problem the manufacturer can’t fix after enough chances, you may be entitled to a full refund, a replacement vehicle, or a cash settlement.
The defect must be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty and must substantially affect how you drive the car, what it’s worth, or whether it’s safe. More problems qualify than people realize. Recurring engine, transmission, electrical, brake, and warning light issues can all meet the threshold.
If your car has been back to a Sacramento-area dealership for the same problem multiple times and it still isn’t fixed, that’s the strongest indicator you may have a case.
Sacramento consumer cases are filed in the Sacramento County Superior Court. Unlimited civil cases are typically heard at the Gordon D. Schaber Sacramento County Courthouse in downtown Sacramento. We file in the appropriate venue and handle the case from there, regardless of where in the Sacramento metro you live.
We represent consumers throughout Sacramento County and the greater metro, including downtown, East Sacramento, Land Park, Natomas, Citrus Heights, Carmichael, Fair Oaks, Folsom, Rancho Cordova, Elk Grove, Roseville, and West Sacramento. The market ranges from fleet and government use through luxury vehicles, with a strong presence of state employees and Bay Area commuters.
