The Firm

Our law firm is located in downtown Los Angeles, where we have practiced civil litigation defense throughout our careers. We are committed to providing our clients with high quality litigation services and accordingly, our firm has been given the highest ratings for both professional competence and ethical conduct by Martindale-Hubbell, America's foremost rating service for attorneys. We have no attorneys at our firm that aren't trial lawyers and collectively we have taken over 100 cases through trial . Since our traditional business has involved servicing the insurance industry and those businesses that self-insure as to general liability matters, while existing in a market where insurance companies use in-house counsel to a degree unknown in most parts of the country, we have over the years developed market niches in disciplines where insurance companies characteristically do not refer matters to their in-house counsel. Consequently, we have a demonstrated expertise in the following practice areas:

General Litigation

  Personal Injury

     Trucking Industry Defense

     Premises Liability

Construction Injury

Insurance Coverage Litigation

Entertainment Industry Risks - We have consulted with and defended:

Producers and Entertainment Companies for Motion Picture, TV, Cable, Direct to Video, and Music Videos

Professional and Amateur Sports Teams

Concert and Sports Venues

Concert Promoters, Nightclubs and Taverns, Racetracks, Theater Companies, Marketing Companies, Security Companies

Public Relations and Advertising Companies, and Party Planners

We have successfully represented entertainment industry figures that are among the most elusive and least cooperative

Construction Defect - We defend construction injury matters, and have represented Developers where we have succeeded in getting back the bulk of the money expended during the defense effort. We have defended sub and small contractors, where the thrust of our effort is to settle early and avoid defense costs, but if that can’t be achieved we have the experience to win at trial.

Insurance Fraud

Police Misconduct

Professional Liability

Lawyers

Insurance Agents and Brokers

Real Estate Agents and Brokers

Miscellaneous E & O
