How did a $1.34 crisis and a broken Volvo spark Natan’s entry into lemon law?
AI will replace what's not valuable. We all know these people that they show up to work, they really don't do work, you know, they're there to fill seats and like, you know, collect a paycheck and they're just pushing paper, but they don't necessarily add anything of value. AI will probably replace that person. But will it replace the human mind, the analysis? and the ability to go in front of a jury? I don't think so.
Natan Davoudi is a consumer protection attorney, experienced litigator, and lifelong automotive enthusiast, and the founder of Lemon Loggeroo, where he focuses exclusively on consumer protection and lemon law, helping consumers across California.
Our personal car ended up going in for repair after repair after repair at a time when I was, like I said, we were down to our last dollar in the bank account. We were down to $1.34. The car was messed up. And, you know, my wife said, you need to figure this out. My mom said, your car's a lemon. So we had sent a demand letter to Volvo and they agreed to buy the car back. And I'm like, holy crap, like this could be it. And then the rest is history.
It spans the globe like a super high school internet. Elvis. Today, Apple is going to reinvent the phone. It's not over until I win. The Living Your Legacy podcast. For those who live to leave a legacy.

Jordan. Jordan.
Chicago was the lead. Usain Bolt is the fastest man on the planet.
hey welcome back everyone to another episode of living your legacy podcast and i'm your host again jay slang and we're down here in the sunny miami beach studios here in south beach miami and we get the privilege to talk to some of the best entrepreneurs from around the countries the disruptors and experts in all kinds of fields and here we have a special guest with us today uh immigrated from iran but yeah we had an amazing episode and he's here for america's top lawyers And why don't you introduce yourself? What's your name? Where are you from? And what's your firm?
Sure. Great to be here. Thank you, Jay.
Why did Natan switch from pre‑med to law and what motivated his move to legal studies in Israel?
And really, thank you for having us and hosting us. My name is Nathan Davoudi. I'm here from LemonLawGuru.com, the law offices of Naat and Dahoudi. And yeah, where am I from? It depends how far back you go, but I recently just came from Los Angeles. That's where our offices are. And if you want to go all the way back, originally I was born in Iran, of all places.
Great, great. My best friend growing up was Iranian, right? And yeah, also another very successful dude. So I just did your session, right? Yeah. And you were talking about how Iranians, when they come to America, they basically have three choices of a career. Correct. What are those three choices?
It changes, I guess, decade to decade. But when I was growing up, the three professions, you could only be either a doctor, lawyer, or engineer.
Yeah, he falls into the doctor category.
Yeah, exactly. There
you go. But somehow you didn't want to be a lawyer, right? You kind of veered, you know, took a sidetrack and you were into cars, right? But somehow you came back to being a lawyer. So how did that work out?
Yeah, I mean, I was always into cars. I think Persians were heavily into our cars, Mercedes, BMWs, Porsches, you know, the exotics. I was always into American muscle cars. And one of the ways you get these fancy cars is you gotta be a doctor, lawyer, or engineer. So me, my background, I was actually pre-med all the way through second year of college. And then my father, God rest his soul, was actually a pharmacist. He was dealing with some stuff with the board of pharmacy. Thank God he was successful. But he needed an attorney. And you saw how expensive attorneys were and how he was being treated. And part of me is like, bro, instead of becoming a doctor, I think at this point we need an attorney in the family.
So, yeah. So I was thinking to myself, instead of trying to figure out how to heal the physical body, I think we should figure out how to heal the social body. So the beginning of third year of college, I actually went away, studied in Israel for six months, fell in love with Talmudic law.
