The lawyers at Kassouni Law bring over twenty years of combined experience to their clients. There have been many favorable results. Below please find some of the cases our attorneys are particularly proud of:

Lockaway Storage v. County of Alameda
Timothy Kassouni successfully argued at trial on behalf of Lockaway Storage against the County of Alameda and its building and planning departments. The court found the County of Alameda liable for a taking of property without just compensation on the theory of inverse condemnation. The County of Alameda had acted arbitrarily in the denial of building permits for construction of the storage facility. The court awarded Lockaway Storage facility one million dollars in compensatory damages and interest, and over 725,000 dollars in attorney fees.

Orthalliance litigation
Invalidated a non-competition covenant which illegally restricted the free trade of orthodontists. This was the catalyst for a multi-million settlement nationwide.

Preserved the rights of private property owners in Topanga Canyon, California, with the court finding that trespass onto private property for the purpose of obtaining evidence of an alleged Coastal Act violation, is not protected speech.

Beverly Towers Inc. v. City of West Hollywood
Appeared before the California Supreme Court in oral argument and amicus curiae briefing. The ruling precluded local governments from enforcing condominium conversion regulations after discretionary approvals had already been granted, preserving the private property rights of Beverly Towers Inc.

Represented over 75 home owners in construction defect actions in Orange County, California, generating multi-million dollar settlements.

Preserved the private use of subsurface oil and gas rights in a parcel of land otherwise subject to a conservation easement.
