Biography
About Matthew Paul Krupnick, Esq.
Some lawyers are content to just go with the flow and do what everyone else is doing. I'm not one of them. I'm a legal warrior who fights tirelessly for my clients, even when the odds are stacked against us.
My journey hasn't been easy. I've faced personal loss and professional challenges that would have broken a lesser man. But through it all, I've emerged stronger and more determined than ever.
I'm not afraid to take on the tough cases, the ones others shy away from. I'm a skilled litigator with a proven track record of success in Personal Injury and Employment Law. I've gained unimaginable experience in the art of deposition, negotiation, and courtroom strategy.
But I'm more than just a lawyer. I'm a compassionate advocate who understands the human cost of injustice. I'm dedicated to helping my clients navigate the legal system and achieve the best possible outcome for their situation.
Why Choose Me?
Unwavering dedication: I pour my heart and soul into every case.
Fearless advocacy: I'm not afraid to challenge the status quo.
Proven results: I have a history of securing favorable outcomes for my clients.
Beyond the Courtroom:
When I'm not fighting for justice, I'm pursuing my passion for magic and mentalism. I'm a proud member of the world-famous Magic Castle in Hollywood, where I regularly perform for audiences of all ages.

Matthew is back in Action and better than ever!
My wife and I retained Matthew and his assistant shortly after he became active again after losing his mother (we were blessed enough to have know Vivian as well, and it is amazing to see Matthew carrying on her legacy) and dealing with his multiple back surgeries. Basically, we needed a bull dog ...

Replied last May 11, 2020Wow, I did not expect a review at all, let alone one like this. It has been my pleasure and honor to represent you guys. Your confidence and trust means more to me than I can describe. I hope to continue to earn your loyalty and trust for as long as you need. Thank you again for these kind words. I am at a loss for words to be honest. Thank you again. Sincerely, Matthew Krupnick

No communication, total disappointment
I hired Krupnick to sue a dog owner after I was attacked on the street. He simply stopped returning messages and I never heard from him after signing a retainer agreement.... except for one email where he blamed his legal secretary for misfiling a bunch of clients. I don't know what happened in this ...

Replied last June 11, 2020I should like to add that Spencer Moreno and I are dear friends again. He regrets having even made this review and has tried to remove it but AVVO has not been helpful in doing so. He and I both had some misunderstandings that lead to some temporary bad blood. Certainly, no malpractice was committed, and the State Bar found no wrongdoing either. Regardless, we have reconciled and are great friends to this day. Cheers Spencer!

Very Dissatisfied Client
I retained Matthew Krupnic for my Unlimited Civil Case for damages and he was awful. He never returned my communication with him for months at a time. He didn't file or defend my case properly so it was dismissed with prejudice because of his neglect with responding to the Defendents and to his clien...

Replied last June 11, 2020Veronica, I hope you have found peace and happiness in your life. I only wish the best for you as always. I do not even harbor ill will despite you filing a frivolous malpractice lawsuit against me (one that was quickly dismissed by your new lawyer). Life is too short. I hope you are well, and should our paths ever cross, I hope that we can put all of that behind us and shake hands. Sincerely, Matthew

"Top-notch attorney. Highly respected in the legal community."

"I endorse this lawyer. He is detailed in his work and aggressive for his clients."
"I have seen numerous answers of Mr. Krupnick and they are consistently correct, analytic, and customized to fit the individual needs of Avvo askers. This is the precise combination of qualities that any Avvo asker would be looking for in legal representation."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer."
"I endorse this lawyer. Matthew is one of the great young lawyers in Los Angeles whose fearlessness allows him to take on any matter and come out with justice. We recently reviewed evidence on a difficult auto collision case where a police officer in Hawthorne ran a red light, camera on, and caused a violent collision. Most lawyers would not take the case because it involves authorities and credibility. But Matthew fought hard, typical of him, and battled for fair compensation, and won. He works with the best lawyers in Los Angeles, Mike Alder, people who are leaders, and he'll be one himself soon!"
"I endorse this lawyer. Matthew is an amazing attorney and a tireless advocate."
"I have worked with Matthew for over 6 years in the trenches of hard fought litigation. I often tell people about some of the skills Matthew has, or the accomplishments he has achieved at such a young age, and people often find it hard to believe. Not only is he one of the sharpest, most fearless and talented litigators I know, but he is loyal to those he loves to a fault. As a co-worker before he opened KRUPNICK & KRUPNICK (where I am now working with Matthew, his amazing mom and partner Vivian Krupnick, and the rest of our incredible staff), we worked together for close to 5 years doing litigation against the best firms and biggest and most hard to deal with insurance companies in the world. There was never a time that I needed help that Matthew didn't INSIST on helping me (Thankfully!). He taught me many things, both as a litigator, and as a person. He always saw the positive in me and made me believe I could accomplish annything. I am proud to endorse Matthew Krupnick and his firm."
"I choose to work with only a select group of lawyers and Mr. Krupnick is one of them. When I first met Matthew I knew he was the real deal. He is a smart lawyer, aggressive, and knows his stuff. I look forward to working with The Krupnick Law Firm for many years."
"Matthew’s track record speaks for itself. He is a top rated Los Angeles attorney and is an asset to this profession. I endorse this attorney."
