Kazan McClain Satterley & Greenwood salutes Centro Legal de la Raza, Dardarian Ho Kan & Lee, the Impact Fund, Law Offices of Andrew Wolff, and the California Civil Rights Law Group for their amazing victory in U.S. ex rel. Terry v. Wasatch Advantage Group which resulted in a $16.5 million settlement on behalf of Section 8 tenants.
The outstanding victory includes the return of 100% of the unlawful excess rent paid by tenants plus interest, and injunctive relief eliminating the unlawful practices.
We whole-heartedly endorse The Daily Journal’s decision to present Centro Legal’s litigation director Jessie Newmark the 2025 California Lawyer of the Year (CLAY) award.
We are proud of our Kazan McClain Partners’ Foundation’s financial contribution to Centro Legal de la Raza and the Impact Fund. This financial support allows them to provide vital legal services to vulnerable and underserved communities, like the plaintiffs in this case.
The Kazan McClain Partners’ Foundation was founded in 1994, and to date has distributed over $38 million in grants to diverse organizations. We look forward to being a part of their continued success.
