Hand-Crafted Law is Here.
For 20 years, James S. Iagmin (YAHG-min) has represented only plaintiffs in catastrophic personal injury, employment, and real estate fraud cases. A tough advocate, he gets incredible results for his clients. Jim also brings integrity and humanity to the process. He helps clients cope with personal tragedy and sometimes stressful litigation. Jim believes that every client deserves honest and aggressive counsel from an experienced and skilled trial attorney.
Jim began at The Veen Firm, one of the most respected plaintiffs' law firms in San Francisco and all of California. Returning home to San Diego in 2000, he joined the preeminent law firm of Schoville & Arnell, LLP. There, he learned all aspects of complex injury cases, including premises liability, employment, government liability, wrongful death and product liability cases. He helped work-up an automobile product liability case that resulted in a record $369,000,000 jury verdict.
In 2008, Jim joined the Gomez Law Firm, obtaining several jury verdicts in excess of $1 million—each in a unique area of the law, including the first application of the elder abuse laws to an arm's-length real estate transaction. Due to his repeated success, the firm was re-named Gomez Iagmin Trial Attorneys in 2013.
In 2014, Jim partnered with his friend and colleague Jon Williams to form Williams Iagmin LLP. Rather than delegating cases to junior attorneys, Jim and John personally handle all of their clients’ cases.

James (I know him as Jim) is a tremendously skilled lawyer and partner at one of the best personal injury law firms in San Diego and California. He is a slight man with a warm heart but is absolutely dogged in his determination and support of his clients. He is a strong advocate and fights hard for his clients.

I have known Mr. Iagmin since 1999 and have followed his career regularly since. He is one of the most well rounded personal injury litigators in Southern California with in-depth knowledge not only of the law, but the underlying factors that can complicate injuries cases such as insurance coverage, indemnity, and apportionment. I highly endorse him.

Jim Iagmin has a well deserved reputation for not only obtaining outstanding results for his clients, but also for being an extremely hardworking, smart and effective trial attorney. His commitment to the highest standards of professionalism and ethics goes unsurpassed. These are not only my views, but the views of the broader San Diego legal community which has recognized Jim's unique talents several times in awarding him various honors and awards -- all of which he deserves. His focus on representation in the area of personal injury exclusively has served his clients well in the past, and any future client will be equally well served by this outstanding attorney. I know that he has obtained truly amazing jury verdicts and settlements for his clients, and I would not hesitate a moment to refer a close friend or family member to Jim to handle any personal injury matter.
