About Eric
Biography
Eric Strongin is a skilled trial attorney specializing in serious personal injury, insurance coverage and insurance bad faith litigation. Mr. Strongin has a track record of success in handling such matters and has successfully tried or resolved hundreds of matters. Mr. Strongin has personally recovered millions of dollars for his clients, and has established a reputation as one of the most tenacious trial lawyers in Southern California. The firm he helped found, Strongin, LLP, has gained widespread recognition in California as a firm that never backs down. Where other lawyers stop, Strongin, LLP will go the distance, through trial, through appeal, and even to the Supreme Court.
No stranger to the courtroom, in just 2022-2023, Mr. Strongin spent more than 30 weeks in jury trial. In 2023, he won back-to-back-to-back jury trials (3xs), including obtaining a $5 million-dollar verdict against the County of Orange for the role of the Sheriff's Department in causing an accident in a parking lot. The County offered nothing to settle the case. In 2024, the firm posted multiple $1 million dollar, plus verdicts or settllements, including one for $7.6 milllion.
Mr. Strongin is rated “AV Preeminent” by Martindale-Hubbell, the most recognized attorney rating service. “AV Preeminent” is the industry’s highest possible rating for both legal ability and ethical standards. An AV rating is based on peer reviews by other attorneys and the judiciary. An elite group of approximately 10 percent of all attorneys holds an AV Preeminent Rating, a designation trusted worldwide. In 2001, he was named to the “Who’s Who in American Law.” In 2012, he was recognized by the City of Lancaster, California for “Excellence in Trial Advocacy,” after securing more than $1 million for his client in a case that went to the California Supreme Court. For the years 2013, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025 Mr. Strongin was named as a Super Lawyer Rising Star and Super Lawyer. The Super Lawyers list recognizes no more than 5 percent of attorneys in each state. The Rising Stars list recognizes no more than 2.5 percent of attorneys in each state.
In 2017, 2018, and 2019 the American Institute of Personal Injury Attorneys recognized Mr. Strongin as “10 Best Attorneys — California.” Mr. Strongin was also selected as one of the Top 100 Attorneys in Southern California by L.A. Magazine and one of the Top 10 Attorneys for Personal Injury Law by Attorney and Practice Magazine. In 2020 he was added to The National Trial Lawyers roster of Top 100 Trial Lawyers, and he has remained on the Top 100 list ever since.
Mr. Strongin has litigated cases with or against some of the largest law firms in the country. He has also lectured with well-known attorneys and judges. He always knew he wanted to be an attorney. He began competing nationally in debate tournaments in high school, then in law school. He spent his summers preparing for the next year's tournaments at universities across the country, and won multiple awards, including California state championships.
Strongin, LLP secured over $1.8 million for homeowners who purchased a newly built home in Los Angeles County, only to discover that construction defects had caused water intrusion and mold contamination, severely impacting one homeowner’s health. While not everyone exposed to toxigenic mold becomes ill due to genetic differences and susceptibility, studies (World Health Organization and many others) show that at least 60% of those affected by mold and its byproducts are not allergic, challenging common misconceptions about mold-related illnesses.

It was a tough fight
It was a long hard fight and Eric did a great job arguing the case to a jury. He worked hard and was always thoughtful of what we were going through. Now thanks to Eric I don't have to go through the rest of my life being angry and the Bicycle Club was found responsible for my brother's death.
