About

The Law Offices of William R. McGee is a San Francisco-based lemon law practice dedicated to helping California consumers resolve disputes over defective vehicles. Led by attorneys William R. McGee and Deanna Wallace, the firm represents residents throughout the Bay Area who have purchased or leased vehicles with persistent defects that impair safety, use, or value.

California's Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, commonly known as the Lemon Law, protects consumers in these situations, but navigating the legal process successfully often requires skilled representation. The Law Offices of William R. McGee specializes in guiding clients through each stage of a lemon law claim. The firm analyzes service records and warranty agreements, communicates directly with manufacturers on the client's behalf, and helps clients understand their full rights under California law.

The process typically begins when a vehicle has been in the repair shop repeatedly without resolving underlying issues. After giving the manufacturer's authorized repair facility a reasonable number of attempts to fix the problem, clients must notify the manufacturer in writing. From that point forward, having an experienced lemon law attorney simplifies negotiations and any necessary litigation. The Law Offices of William R. McGee handles the burden of communicating with manufacturers while building and pursuing claims to secure appropriate remedies—whether through negotiated settlement, manufacturer buyback, or court action.

Common vehicle defects covered under lemon law include persistent mechanical breakdowns, engine failures, and electrical system malfunctions such as faulty sensors or navigation system problems. The firm emphasizes that eligibility requirements exist: vehicles must generally be 2020 or newer, purchased or leased new from a California dealership. Used vehicles are no longer covered under California Lemon Law unless they were purchased as manufacturer Certified Pre-Owned vehicles meeting specific criteria.
