Jack Williamson
Co-Owner and Founder
California Office
Graduating from Western State College of Law in 1982, Jack became an active member of the litigation community with unparalleled focus and drive. He has always been quick to do what needs to be done, successfully trying his first Superior Court jury trial within six months of passing the California Bar Examination. Starting as he meant to go on, Jack argued the case on behalf of a trucking company and its driver in a precedent that would set the tone for his career.
Jack’s bountiful experience is seen in his various positions and accomplishments in both academic and judicial contexts. Participating within the judicial system, he has acted as a Judge Pro Tem in the Orange County Superior Court and both an Arbitrator and Mediator for the Los Angeles Superior Court. He has also lectured for professional organizations on subjects ranging from traumatic brain injuries to construction law, and taught legal writing in law school.
Jack has earned a “Preeminent Attorney” rating by Martindale Hubble through his peers within the legal community. He has received unsurpassed evaluations in both his legal skills and ethical advocacy, and continued successful trial results throughout his career have earned him membership in the American Board of Trial Advocacy (“ABOTA”). In addition, Jack devotes a portion of his practice providing pro bono legal services to deserving people in need of legal services.
