Firm founder, James McKiernan, is a San Luis Obispo personal injury attorney with over 35 years of legal experience.

This is a prestigious group of trial lawyers who have won million-dollar settlements and verdicts for their clients. Less than one percent of all lawyers in the U.S. belong to this organization; this demonstrates the difficulty of achieving such a high level of results for personal injury victims.
