The (213) 739-8350 number is not available on Saturdays (due to limited staffing the Saturday Hotline service is only for questions regarding active transactions). Calls answered on a first come first serve basis at (213) 739-8282 only.

WHETHER YOU SUBMIT YOUR QUESTION ONLINE, BY E-MAIL OR FAX: PLEASE KEEP YOUR DESCRIPTION OF THE ISSUE SHORT (2-3 short paragraphs--there is a 2000 character maximum computer software limit on messages relayed to attorneys). YOU'LL BE ABLE TO PROVIDE MORE DETAILS WHEN YOU TALK TO AN ATTORNEY. One of the C.A.R. attorneys will telephone you to discuss your legal question, so please be sure to indicate the name of any other licensee involved in your question/transaction as well as your telephone number.
Note: There are days when the Legal Hotline is flooded with calls, faxes, and e-mail requests. Unfortunately that may mean a delay from several hours to several days before receiving a phone call from one of the real estate attorneys on our staff. CAR customer service representatives who answer the phones, process your requests, and forward them to the attorneys, greatly appreciate your understanding and patience.
