Our experience in this area involves dangerous conditions on public property, slip and falls, trip and falls and claimed liability for criminal acts of third parties, including criminal assault and major exposure personal injury cases. We have represented universities, landowners, business owners, and security guard companies in civil cases brought by persons who were victims of criminal acts while on the premises of the civil defendants. The criminal perpetrators were usually third parties, but sometimes they were never identified. On occasion the alleged perpetrators were alleged to be employed by our clients.

Attorneys in the firm have handled numerous governmental liability matters, including alleged dangerous conditions on public property, school property, road design cases, cases involving alleged illegal detention, false arrest and excessive force.

We represented a major private university in an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) case involving repeated access problems, in which plaintiff sought injunctive relief and damages.

Our experience also includes cases of police brutality, the responsibility of the County of Los Angeles in placing children in foster homes, civil rights litigation, and a case involving a plaintiff who had been sentenced to spend time in a county youth detention facility who was allegedly "lost in the shuffle" and as a result served approximately 280 days beyond his sentence.

We recently defended a university in a lawsuit involving severe personal injuries involving high voltage electrical injury. The case has raised complex issues of premises liability, peculiar risk, indemnity, and insurance coverage for indemnity obligations. In addition, we have defended claims alleging toxic and chemically contaminated real property.
