About

For business law, real estate transactions, and bankruptcy representation in Carlsbad, attorney A. David Puzo maintains an active practice on Salk Avenue under California State Bar License #101901. Real estate matters span purchase-and-sale agreement negotiation, title dispute resolution, and lien subordination work that connects with the mortgage origination pipeline at Carlsbad lenders on the El Camino Real corridor, including Bluefire Mortgage Group. The practice also handles probate and trust administration, guiding successor trustees through California's Probate Code requirements for asset marshaling, creditor notification, and beneficiary distribution. Business-formation and contract-litigation services cover LLC operating agreements, partnership disputes, and breach-of-contract actions in both California Superior Court and the Southern District of California federal bench. Probate cases involving elderly decedents often require coordination with in-home care providers to document the decedent's capacity and care history, a process that intersects with the services provided by North County home-health agencies, including BrightStar Care. The highest-value engagements involve Chapter 11 business reorganization filings that require simultaneous real property valuation, secured-creditor negotiation, and post-petition financing arrangements approved by the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of California.
