About Us |
|
For decades our firm has specialized in major tort litigation and has secured millions of dollars in compensation for injured parties in all types of civil litigation, including personal injury, government entity liability, products liability, dangerous condition, medical malpractice, aviation/transportation, and civil rights violations. Our aggressive representation of clients has resulted in substantial verdicts in these areas of law and has earned our lawyers national reputations. In addition to the extensive litigation practice of the firm directed at securing compensation for victims of wrongdoing by government agencies, auto manufacturers, drug manufacturers, and cigarette manufacturers, the firm has continued to fight for the civil and human rights of immigrants in the United States. Our firm achieved great success and notoriety in its prosecution of a group of police officers in the Los Angeles Police Department “Rampart Scandal.” In addition to the achievement of a $15 million settlement for the figurehead plaintiff in the scandal, the firm has successfully resolved a large number of related cases for an additional $10 million. Recently, the firm negotiated a $28 million dollar settlement for client, Ignacio Becerra (aka Martin Topete), who suffered severe burns over his entire body, particularly his face, when a petroleum pipeline exploded near where he was working in Walnut Creek, California. The firm has pursued and successfully resolved, through settlement or verdict, multimillion dollar cases involving the dangerous condition of a state highway that resulted in the death of a wife and mother (Mancinas v. State of California); the negligence of a City of Los Angeles worker that struck and killed a pedestrian in a crosswalk (Saenz v. City of Los Angeles and Morales v. City of Los Angeles), the derailment of a train into a Commerce neighborhood (Vasquez v. Southern Pacific Railroad) and a tragic trucking accident that resulted in the death of two young sisters and their cousin (Recinos v. Werner Enterprises, Inc. - $8.4 million). The firm also represents the families of several immigrants who died in the collapse of the Twin Towers in New York. |
