A Different Kind of Law Firm
Tardiff & Saldo has built a firm that embraces multi-disciplinary excellence. Our lawyers and associates are proficient at both transactional law & litigation, which is what matters when you’re choosing who to rely on for counsel. There aren’t a lot of shops who can claim this, but we’ve mastered it.
In most cases, a lawyer who doesn’t like the confrontation of the courtroom will go into transactional law. Similarly, lawyers who excel in the courtroom don’t do transactional law because “that’s not where the money is.” We believe that to be the best at one, you have to be really good and well-practiced at the other.
So at Tardiff & Saldo Law that is what we look for in our partners and associates. Our ability to think “outside of the box” drives all of our major decisions, benefitting our clients, and allowing them to get back to more important things…their family, their business, their life.
Serving California for More than
55 Years
The San Luis Obispo office of Tardiff & Saldo was established in 2019 when two long-time local firms joined to serve San Luis Obispo County and people throughout the state of California.
Tardiff Law was established in 1980 in San Luis Obispo and saw several generations of experienced attorneys succeed and retire within its walls. For decades, it proved a Central Coast staple providing elite legal representation in San Luis Obispo and throughout California. Handling over 100 jury trials since its inception, with many published opinions, Tardiff Law brings its extensive trial and appellate experience to Tardiff & Saldo.
The Saldo Law Group brings more than 35 years of practice experience in personal injury and medicine law to Tardiff & Saldo. They understand the standards and procedures that govern the medical profession, and have represented doctors as defendants in medical negligence cases, anticipating the strategies that will be employed to try to minimize or defeat your claim. They have a long track record as successful trial attorneys who have recovered in excess of $200 million in damages for their clients.
Today, Tardiff & Saldo, and their combined record of success dealing with personal injury suits, business law, estate planning, and other civil law cases, is ready to go to work for you. Our seasoned lawyers offer reliable advice and guidance. Our commitment to quality centers on our goal of achieving positive outcomes that allow our clients to move forward with their lives.
