About Sil
Sil Vossler, Esq.,
Sil Vossler is the founder of The Vossler Law Firm, a trial boutique focused on institutional property fraud, elder financial abuse, and the theft of home equity. He takes a small number of high-stakes cases against financial institutions, fiduciaries, real estate professionals, and others who facilitate or profit from the financial exploitation of homeowners, particularly seniors and adults with disabilities.
Prior to founding the firm, Sil served as the Senior Elder Law Attorney at Open Door Legal, a San Francisco-based nonprofit law firm. There, he built an innovative elder law department focused on preventing displacement and preserving intergenerational wealth in San Francisco's underserved communities. Through strategic probate, estate planning, and financial abuse litigation, Sil helped vulnerable residents protect their homes, recover stolen assets, and preserve the wealth they had accumulated over a lifetime.
At Open Door Legal, Sil also litigated significant cases against major banks, lenders, and other financial institutions involving financial abuse, predatory lending, and wrongful foreclosure. He successfully prevented and reversed foreclosures, recovered millions of dollars for his clients, and held institutional bad actors accountable.
Through this work, Sil recognized the importance of strategic litigation not only to obtain justice for individual clients, but also to expose systemic misconduct and advance meaningful policy reform. He founded The Vossler Law Firm to pursue high-impact cases involving property fraud, financial exploitation, and the unlawful transfer of wealth from homeowners to financial institutions and other predatory actors. Sil draws on his litigation experience to develop and advance legislation designed to strengthen protections for California homeowners, combat displacement, and preserve intergenerational wealth.
Legislative and Policy Work
Sil has used his experience representing victims of property fraud and financial exploitation to develop legislation protecting homeowners throughout California.
Sil originated and drafted SB 1323 (2022), legislation designed to protect homeowners from losing their accumulated equity through foreclosure. Although the bill did not pass, negotiations following its defeat led to AB 2424 (2024), a successor bill Sil helped draft. Now law, AB 2424 is used throughout California to postpone foreclosure sales and protect homeowners' equity.
Sil also originated and drafted AB 3108 (2024), which became law and expanded California's mortgage fraud protections, particularly against fraudulent business-purpose lending schemes.
For all three bills, Sil served as the lead consumer expert testifying before both the California Assembly and Senate. His legislative work reflects his commitment to extending the impact of individual cases into lasting, statewide protections against financial exploitation.

Sil was selected to the Super Lawyers Rising Stars list each year from 2023 through 2026.
