I cannot begin to explain how absolutely amazing the entire legal team at LS Carlson Law is. We knew that we were going to need thorough and aggressive attorneys when it came to our legal predicament. Kirk, David, and Shelby were nothing short of that. We never had to worry about anything falling through the cracks and felt heard and supported throughout the proceedings. They are extremely professional and we cannot be happier with the outcome. We highly recommend LS Carlson Law for anything that comes your way.
Kirk Pearson, Esq.
Managing PartnerKirk Pearson knows what it looks like when an HOA stops acting in good faith. He's seen the selective enforcement, the retaliatory fines, the board meetings where homeowners are talked over or shut out entirely. As a Managing Partner at LS Carlson Law, Kirk focuses his practice on representing homeowners—not associations—in disputes that have already escalated past the point of easy resolution.
With extensive litigation and trial experience across California, Kirk brings real courtroom credibility to every case. He's handled matters in both state and federal courts, from Northern California to Southern California, and understands how to build leverage through thorough preparation, strategic motion practice, and—when necessary—trial. That background matters because HOAs often change their approach when they realize they're dealing with counsel who won't back down.
Before law school, Kirk studied English at Brigham Young University—a foundation that sharpened his ability to communicate clearly and cut through legal complexity. He earned his J.D. from Pepperdine Caruso School of Law, where he served as Literary Citation Editor on the Journal of Business, Entrepreneurship, and the Law.
Kirk lives in Orange County with his wife and three children. When he's not advocating for homeowners, you'll find him outdoors—skiing, mountain biking, or camping with his family.

Mentioning: Kirk Pearson, Esq.
Kirk Pearson and Shelby Daws represented me in a convoluted legal matter that took nearly two years to resolve. The quality and efficiency of their professional services surpassed all expectations . In fact, this dynamic duo was so effective that the opposing party changed their legal representation twice and still were no match for the LS Carlson Law team. I was delighted with the final outcome of my legal matter and will definitely engage their services in the future should the need arise. G.
