Premier Personal Injury Firm – Santa Clarita, California
Mason Rashtian is an experienced trial attorney and the founder of The Mason Law Firm, a premier personal injury firm based in Santa Clarita. For over two decades, Mason has dedicated his practice to helping injured individuals and their families secure the justice and compensation they deserve.
Mason began his legal career working with prestigious law firms throughout Los Angeles and Orange Counties, where he was retained by major insurance companies to defend personal injury claims. This invaluable experience gave him deep insight into how insurance companies operate and defend cases — knowledge he now uses to protect and advocate for injury victims.
In 2006, Mason founded The Mason Law Firm to focus exclusively on representing plaintiffs. His unique background on both sides of litigation gives him a strategic advantage in the courtroom and at the negotiating table. Since 1997, he has successfully handled thousands of personal injury matters, including vehicle collisions, construction accidents, dog bites and animal attacks, slip and fall injuries, catastrophic injuries, wrongful death claims, and more.
Mason’s commitment to his clients and his dedication to excellence are reflected in the recognition he has received within the legal community:
“AV” Preeminent Rating by Martindale-Hubbell — the highest possible peer review rating for legal ability and ethical standards.
Member of The National Trial Lawyers – Top 100 Trial Lawyers, a by-invitation-only organization recognizing premier trial attorneys nationwide.
Named Top 10 Personal Injury Attorney by the National Academy of Personal Injury Attorneys.
Awarded a “10.0 Superb” Rating by Avvo, a testament to his professional achievements and client satisfaction.
At The Mason Law Firm, Mason brings big law firm experience to a personalized, client-focused practice.
