Dangerous and defective automobiles, airplanes, helicopters, Polaris UTVs, batteries, medical devices, pharmaceuticals and more.

Police misconduct, police brutality, excessive force, false arrest, foster care abuse and more.
Protecting consumers in cases involving robo calls, automobile recalls, banking and more.
Unlike most plaintiffs’ firms, we handle all types of litigation. Whether it’s a personal injury case, a products liability claim, an employment dispute, a consumer class action matter, or an elder law issue, we have experience litigating at the highest levels and obtaining substantial justice for our clients.
In the last few years, we have been in charge of multiple wrongful death cases that have resolved in the mid-seven figure range. Mr. Kristensen was intimately involved in the California state class action against Toyota Motor Corporation for the claims related to unintended acceleration. The proposed settlement in that matter is estimated to reach $1.4 billion dollars.
We have also tried and resolved numerous employment cases against both small and large employers.
$1 million dollars
A lawsuit can be the most trying time of someone’s life. Our lawyers work tirelessly to even the playing field and bring manufacturers, employers, insurance companies, and corporations to justice.
At most larger firms, the name partner will bring in the case and hand the matter over to a junior attorney. They may get up to speed once a settlement nears, or the case approaches a trial date. Our lawyers are involved with your case from the day you retain us, through discovery and trial. This allows us to have far greater knowledge about the meticulous details that win or lose a big case.
We understand the stress and anxiety that can accompany a legal dispute. We are here to take the burden off your shoulders. To get in touch with our law firm,
