Hi all,
I am trying to sue my apartment management company since their employee (my on-site apartment manager) got into my apartment without my permission and stole lots of my personal and financial information and committed lots of fraudulent charges.
My question is: How do I find a good lawyer who specializes in this case? I would also like to know how/where I can find lawyers who are willing to take on a case for a portion of the reward rather than an upfront fee. I am living in the bay area, California.
Any help/information is greatly appreciated! Thanks.

I would not say there is no upfront fee, but rather this cost has already been paid by the taxpayers, and it is called the City Prosecutor. I am sure you can work out one of those lawyer agreements where she will keep the penalty fines and you will be awarded the victim's restitution after the case is won.

There are lots of lawyers that might be willing to take on a case like this. You can try a websites like Lawguru.com or Findlaw.com or you can try calling the attorney referral services for your local county bar association.

You are probably not going to find an attorney who will take that type of case on a contingency basis and if you do it will be about 40% of the take after the expenses are paid out of the total settlement.
Good luck.

Its called the Yellow Pages. You want a lawyer who will work on a contingency fee basis.
