A Line in the Beautiful California Sand

March 4, 2020 by Hanson Law Firm

Beaches. Surfers. Fabulous wealth. Land squabbles. Silicon Valley entrepreneurs. Outrage. Random accusations of Communism. I don’t want to alarm anyone, but this may be our most “California” story yet. It all started in 2008, when Vinod Khosla, the billionaire co-founder of Sun Microsystems, purchased 89 acres south of Half Moon Bay, including Martin’s Beach, for… CONTINUE

Play That Funky Music Law Boy

February 26, 2020 by Hanson Law Firm

The screen flickers on. A charming real estate agent, smiling brightly, introducing her company while an upbeat tune follows her down the hallways. Sweeping drone footage of a beautiful home, followed by panning shots of its rooms, underscored by stirring classical music. A video tour of the neighborhood, local coffee shops and lush green parks,… CONTINUE

For a Fistful of Emojis

February 19, 2020 by Hanson Law Firm

Imagine you’ve been out of town for work and by the time your Uber drops you home from the airport, you’re tired, cranky, and you just want to unwind before bed. You leave your luggage in the living room, shuffle to the kitchen, and pop open a bottle of white. You’re lucky enough to live… CONTINUE

Burn After Pleading

February 12, 2020 by Hanson Law Firm

Who remembers 2008? People thought we were all gonna die because they switched on the Large Hadron Collider, Breaking Bad was – WAIT A MINUTE! We’ve done this opening bit already. Dang it! Well, anyway, along with everything else, there was also the release of the Coen brothers flick Burn After Reading, a movie about… CONTINUE

Game Over – Insert Coin

January 22, 2020 by Hanson Law Firm

Hands up, who’s got a procrastination problem? And don’t weasel out of it, either – we lawyers are trained to spot deceptive behavior. Even the most assiduous among us has a lazy day or two. I’ll fill this form out later, I’ll answer this email tomorrow… well, how about letting that email slide for a… CONTINUE

POP Goes The Agent

January 15, 2020 by Hanson Law Firm

It’s a sunny day, and people have come from all around the city to check out this brand spanking new property’s first open house. Sales Agent John anxiously watches the prospective buyers mill around. His wife just left him, he’s sleeping in his car, and he’s been skipping his anger management classes because he can’t… CONTINUE

To AB or not to AB

January 13, 2020 by Hanson Law Firm

If you have eyes and ears (and if you don’t, how are you reading this), you’ll know all about the gig economy. Some people say it’s the way of the future, some people say it’s just exploitative, others position themselves in the middle. I’m guessing you’re sick of hearing about it. As someone who lives… CONTINUE

All I Wanted for Christmas was a Clear Definition of the Duties of a Deed of Trust Trustee

December 31, 2019 by Hanson Law Firm

A recent opinion on the Citrus El Dorado, LLC v. Chicago Title Company case made my wish come true. It’s a pretty classic story of company meets bank, company gets money from bank, company ends up being unable to pay loan from bank, shenanigans, and a happy ending (for the bank); still, it sets an… CONTINUE

KO Boomer

December 10, 2019 by Hanson Law Firm

Baby Boomers have been getting a bad rap for a while now, but Millennials’ better get ready to eat crow, ‘cause the second greatest generation’s preparing to open up the gates to homeownership by dying en masse. You’re welcome. According to research by Zillow, the U.S. is on the cusp of a flood of homes… CONTINUE

420 Trail Blaze It

December 4, 2019 by Hanson Law Firm

We’ve talked about the devil’s lettuce before on this blog, and with good reason: legalization’s opened up so many smoky doors, you’d be forgiven for getting lost in the weed(s). So, for the benefit of those thinking of leasing to or investing in CRB (Cannabis Related Businesses), let’s hash out a blunt pros and cons… CONTINUE

Clean Bill

December 2, 2019 by Hanson Law Firm

Inside you are two souls. One wants to boost housing production and solve the long-standing, devastating California housing crisis. One wants to do favors for friends and put a bandaid over a bleeding stump. You are the Housing Crisis Act of 2019. A few weeks back, Governor Newsom signed Senate Bill (SB) 330 into law…. CONTINUE
