Fighting for the average Joe®. Representing injured workers throughout Southern California.
Welcome to my profile. I hope that you will feel free to contact me personally and ask me any legal questions you may have. I try to answer all phone calls and e-mails within one business day.

I attended Biola University (La Mirada, CA) from 1999 to 2002, graduating with a Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) in Computer Science Information Systems (Computer Programming and Business). After college, I spent two years working with computers and technology; it was during this time I decided to pursue an exciting career in law.
After leaving a career in the technology industry, I attended Whittier Law School (Costa Mesa, CA) from 2004 to 2007. I focused on the field of intellectual property (Copyrights, Trademarks, and Patents) and on criminal prosecution. I enjoyed a year working for the Orange County District Attorney's Office as a Certified Law Clerk.
I am dedicated to helping hard-working individuals exercise their legal rights against the big and powerful insurance industry and governmental entities. My trademark is "fighting for the Average Joe."
Practice areas

Brian is a rising star in the Orange County legal community and he has the drive, dedication, passion and intelligence to significantly make a positive difference in his clients cases and lives. His hard work ethic and ability to connect with others clearly separates him from many other lawyers in Southern California.

Brian's office is very professional and always willing to go the extra mile for his clients. It is very confusing and scary for injured workers to navigate and understand the workers' compensation system. They need to have competent guidance and someone who takes the time to understand their individual needs. Brian brings that to his practice.
