Jodi Krystyn Swick

I am the founding partner of MH’s California offices and litigate class action and complex matters and insurance coverage disputes in California, Washington and federal courts nationwide. I focus on representing insurance company clients in coverage, bad faith and extra-contractual disputes. I have successfully litigated coverage cases involving general liability, personal lines, entertainment liability, errors and omissions, employment liability, health, life, disability, ERISA and professional liability policies. My practice also specializes in class action and complex matters that have been pursued under a wide variety of consumer protection laws. I have represented insurers, financial institutions, pharmaceutical companies, manufacturing companies, start-ups and other businesses against claims of unfair competition law in U.S. courts and international forums. These matters include alleged violations under Section 17200 of the California Business and Professions Code as well as alleged false advertising claims and violations of the California Insurance Code, California Homeowners Bill of Rights (CHOB), Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), and Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA). During my career, I was named by SF Business Times as one of its “40 Under 40.” I have also been recognized as a Super Lawyer Rising Star in Northern California four times and was asked to join the Litigation Counsel of American as a Fellow. The California offices of MH and I are recognized by US Chambers & Partners in the category of Insurance-Insurer. I am committed to advocating for the advancement of women in the legal profession. I served on the Board & Executive Committee of California Women Lawyers for six years. I speak regularly at conferences and mentors other attorneys on how to advance their legal career while maintaining their personal and family life, sanity and sense of humor. I also enjoy spending time outdoors and traveling with my husband and two children.
