I hired Madeline after a dispute with my apartment complex. From the moment I called looking for help, she displayed professionalism, responsiveness, efficiency, and was communicative every step of the way. The matter ultimately settled in my favor as the tenant, and I’m confident that outcome was due to her expertise and steady guidance. What could have been a stressful and drawn-out situation if handled myself, it was relieving to know that Madeline was able to take it off my plate and handle it with confidence. I’m very grateful for her help and would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing strong, competent legal representation.

Madeline was the only lawyer willing to take my case against a $1B agency that did their best to interfere with my life in several different areas of law that overlapped into several divisions of the Court regarding all matters involved. She listened to my feedback and my particular positions on how to approach the situation, and she made sure to manage everything I had to address. Her document preparation was above and beyond what I expected. The way she handled all related cases led to a successful resolution that ended through mediation at the discretion of the other party that reached out after realizing that going to court against Madeline was not going to be a successful outcome for them after previous proceedings did not go in the other party's favor. This issue went from a simple one case matter, to about 4 separate lawsuits and a federal suit filed that is most likely what swayed the other party to elect to just mediate rather than avoid a costly outcome for them by proceeding to court. I highly recommend Madeline based on her expertise and my own personal experience with how she handled everything for myself and my family. Don't think twice. Just reach out and she will do what she can to get your case on the right track.

Madeline saved me time, money and a lot of stress. I was immediately glad I hired her above the many others I researched. She was calm, professional, straightforward and no-nonsense, helped me resolve my case quickly and efficiently. I would highly recommend Madeline B Liebreich.

Madeline is attentive and straightforward. She is very responsible and responsive, even on weekends, after hours, and holidays. Her style is sharp—she asks direct and clear questions, gathers all necessary information, and tells me exactly what I need to do to mitigate issues. Throughout her assistance in communicating with the apartment management and advising me, she has given me a lot of confidence. I would definitely hire her again if needed, and I highly recommend her to others.

I was lucky to have been connected to Madeline during a long-standing dispute with a former landlord. Although I had not lived on the property for years—and the management company was fully aware of this—they refused to remove me from a joint lease agreement. After nearly a year of trying to resolve the issue on my own, a friend who had worked with Madeline recommended her to me. Madeline was incredibly communicative and thorough. Once she had all the facts, she quickly presented a strong case using legal precedent and persuasive written arguments. Her approach was strategic, clear, and assertive. Thanks to her, the issue was resolved swiftly and in my favor. What has caused me stress for nearly a year is finally over. I now have peace of mind. I won’t hesitate to hire Madeline again—and I’ll be recommending her to others as well.

Atty Madeline Brianne Liebreich is an excellent fighter with my eviction case. She initially investigated my case in a very organized manner, gathered all the data making sure they are complete. Then go through the process with focus and determination to get my justice. I believe I am lucky I was referred to her because she is easy to talk with and straight to the point with her dealings. I sensed her concern for my situation and protection from the irregularities of the other “party”. She is a true picture of a good lawyer, very professional and excellent. More power to her!

Madeline is phenomenal. Anything involving the judicial system can be extremely stressful and overwhelming, often causing me a lot of anxiety. Over the years, I’ve dealt with one issue after another, and I’ve learned the hard way that many attorneys are just mouthpieces—they’ll take your money without actually doing the work. But Madeline is not like that. Madeline does the work, and she can move at the drop of a dime. It’s rare to meet someone who embodies honesty, transparency, and clear communication, all while delivering results. From the moment I started working with her, my gut told me I could trust her, and that feeling of ease proved she’s the real deal. If I were to ever have another issue with a slumlord (which, in L.A. County, we have more than enough), I won’t hesitate to go back to her. She knows the law inside and out and is laser-focused on getting things done. Working with her, I felt assured at every step. People often say they want a “bulldog” attorney, but I disagree. What you really need is a doberman—refined yet aggressive, someone who knows how to cut through the nonsense and nip the problem in the bud. That’s exactly what Madeline is. She’s sharp, efficient, and relentless in fighting for her clients. If you’re dealing with landlord-tenant disputes—especially if it’s your first time—choose Madeline. She’ll guide you with clarity, help you understand your situation better, and give you the confidence to navigate this chaotic system. Thank you, Madeline. My family and I are forever grateful.

Madeline is phenomenal. Navigating the judicial system is incredibly stressful and often overwhelming, but working with her made the process so much easier. I’ve dealt with one issue after another over the years and have learned that many attorneys will talk a big game but fail to deliver. Madeline is not like that. She does the work and moves quickly to address every concern. Her honesty, transparency, and clear communication immediately set her apart. From the moment I started working with her, I felt assured and confident that she would handle everything effectively. If I ever have another issue with a slumlord (and in L.A. County, there are more than enough), I won’t hesitate to return to Madeline. She knows the law, she’s efficient, and she fights hard for her clients. She truly makes an otherwise overwhelming process manageable. If you’re facing landlord-tenant disputes, especially for the first time, I can’t recommend Madeline enough. My family and I are forever grateful.

Took on my Unlawful detainer case for a LA student housing right before trial as I was feeling not confident. Representation was holistic and received a Judgement in my favor. I am hard of speaking and she was still able to work with me through alternate communication methods that were comfortable with me.

Atty. Madeline was very professional and compassionate for the eviction case against the tenants who used every attempt to delay the process. The tenants used different tactics: covid, avoided service, uninhabitability, and bankruptcy twice. Each time she was able to defend and also, recoup for our losses, and win against the tenants. When I was frustrated, she was reassuring and confident in our case, which reduced a lot of stress and fear due to the situation. I am definitely, glad that I hired her and hopefully, never have this situation again, but would and have gladly referred her to others landlords that need help with eviction and were unsuccessful.

Madeline was positive, ethical, professional, and followed up completely. She kept us informed immediately of any and all issues. It isn’t always pleasant needing a lawyer- Madeline was the exception to that. She was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Madeline Liebreich to anyone who needs the services of a lawyer. All my best to her and her future clients. Always remember that some people will never understand the value a great lawyer, but you can be sure to receive exceptional service from M Liebreich.

I hired Madeline on short notice to assist with an unlawful detainer case after my prior attorney went missing. I retained her to seek a trial continuance or prepare for trial—but instead, she quickly advised that I would lose and pressured me to settle, without taking the time to fully understand the case history or evidence. Communication was almost entirely by text, despite my repeated requests for a phone conversation. I was left feeling uninformed, unsupported, and ultimately pressured into a settlement agreement that forced me out of an affordable unit—something I was trying to avoid by hiring legal help in the first place. I was charged $5K which I found excessive for the brief time spent on case, limited communication, and short court appearance. While she did agree to refund $500, it did little to address the overall lack of meaningful representation. I assumed I was paying for experience, but discovered she was only admitted to the Bar in 2017.

After I was unable to reach my prior attorney at a critical time. I hired Madeline on short notice on a Friday night around 8:30pm to assist with an unlawful detainer case. I retained her to seek a trial continuance or prepare for trial—but by Saturday around noon she told me I would lose and recommended that I settle, which left me feeling rushed and that my broader case history and supporting materials - including overlapping cases- weren’t being fully considered in that short of a window. Communication was almost entirely by text, despite my repeated requests for a phone conversation. I felt uninformed and unsupported, and ultimately felt pressured into a settlement agreement that forced me out of an affordable unit—something I was trying to avoid by hiring legal help in the first place. I was charged what I thought was excessive given the quick turnaround and, from my perspective, the limited work performed like a few brief calls with opposing counsel, very limited communication with me, and a short court appearance. I initiated a fee arbitration dispute through a bar-sponsored program and ultimately accepted a partial refund rather than proceeding through the full arbitration process. Additionally, I also assumed I was paying for extensive experience because of the hourly rate, but was surprised to learn later that she was admitted to the bar in 2017. My previous attorney had 30 yrs experience for context and his rate was much lower. At times I felt she came across more like a landlord’s attorney than an advocate for me—something I expressed to her by text. Unfortunately, I can’t recommend her to tenants, as I didn’t feel my needs were supported in a high-stakes situation.

Very unprofessional and lack the commitment to follow through legal cases in a professional manner. Wasted so much money and time for pretty much garbage work, work full of errors and inconsistencies never got a final product that I could approve after months of back and forth with emails where I found myself correcting the work.
