Hassan Zavareei, a gifted and astute attorney who leverages the law and client dedication for consistently positive results.

Mr. Zavareei is an exceptionally gifted attorney. His sense of justice, intricate understanding of the law and his tireless dedication to his clients, makes him an invaluable partner and advisor. A skilled strategist, Mr. Zavareei expertly navigated all aspects of a complex employment related case ...and through each phase of the legal process he laid the groundwork for consistently positive results. Perhaps his greatest attribute in the often cold and calculating legal profession, is his empathy and his ability to keep his clients spirits up, no matter the injustice.

An Amazing Litigator

Our company has been in business for nearly twenty years, and during that time we’ve dealt with countless lawyers. Hassan Zavareei unquestionably ranks as the best of the best. Hassan has represented us in a number of high-stakes, high-profile lawsuits, and he has always delivered world-class lega...l advocacy. Hassan has a sharp legal mind is able to clearly explain even the most complex issues; he is a formidable strategist and never loses sight of the big picture; he is a masterful writer; he is able to deliver compelling arguments to both a judge and jury; and most importantly, he is ethical, devoted, and genuinely cares about his clients. Attorneys who possess all of these qualities are a rare breed. Whenever important legal issues arise, we turn to Hassan first.

Highly skilled, trusted lawyer and friend

I was initially referred to Hassan by his former colleagues at the firm Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher. I had been apprehensive about moving forward with a lawsuit, as I was presently under much stress and lacked the time or energy to become embroiled in protracted, combative litigation. However, after se...veral meetings with Hassan, I began to feel more confident about my case, and very comfortable with Hassan taking the lead. As we developed our legal strategy and prepared for mediation, Hassan involved me in every aspect of the matter, keeping me apprised of each detail in a timely manner. He was willing to use every resource at his disposal to further strengthen our position. Perhaps most significantly, however, he listened to and valued my opinions, concerns and thoughts. I felt that we were very much working as a team, making decisions together. During our mediation with the defendants, Hassan was persuasive, aggressive and creative, often resorting to non-legal arguments. Shortly thereafter, we settled the matter for a sum much larger than I ever would have anticipated. We did so without ever having to file a complaint, thereby avoiding the drudgery of litigation. From my perspective, the result was optimal in all respects. I am able to reflect on that process and on the outcome with complete satisfaction, knowing that my position was ultimately vindicated. Today, Hassan remains a very dear and trusted friend. I have referred others to him on numerous occasions, and will continue to do so in the future.

"I've known Hassan for nearly 25 years. He is one of the brightest and quickest people I’ve ever known. His ability to communicate is unparalleled and he has the uncanny ability to quickly hone in on the essential issue in a complex legal problem and articulate it to a layperson (or a jury) in understandable terms. He has great passion for his work, reverence for the profession of law, and an insatiable desire to learn everything he can about the subject matter of each case. He’s a fierce advocate who is always prepared to go to battle if needed, but also adept at creatively negotiating settlements with good outcomes for his clients. I cannot recommend him highly enough."
