I graduated from Pepperdine Law School in 1976, quit my job teaching speech and communication at Long Beach City College, worked for a mentor for a little over a year, and ever since have either been in a two-person firm (Kinsey & Lashlee 1977-97) or in solo practice.  After 1997 I was a solo practitioner on Main Street in Seal Beach (Paradise) before reducing my case load by 90% in 2013, moving into semi-retirement, and taking my practice to a home office in which I have built something of an electronic village to handle every aspect of the business. 

 

I have the use of a brick-and-mortar office at 333 West Broadway, in Long Beach to meet clients face-to-face but, using the phone, the internet, Zoom conferencing, and electronic filing, I find that it is almost never necessary to do so.  I often don't meet clients in the flesh until there is a court hearing requiring an in-person appearance.

​

Over the years I have litigated a wide variety of matters but these days I've been limiting myself to civil litigation - breach of contract, fraud, and all manner of real estate matters including specific performance, quiet title, and partition. (See our Real Property Partition website)

​

I don't charge for phone consultations so feel free to give me a call.  Since I don't have a secretary, you'll get my 24/7 answering service based in Virginia.  They will get your message to me wherever I may be within 1 minute and I usually call back the same day.  If I can't handle your case, I may be able to direct you to someone who can.
