Profile
Premier Injury Litigation in Downtown Los Angeles
West Coast Trial Lawyers is a top-rated personal injury law firm headquartered in a standalone three-story building in the South Park district of Downtown Los Angeles. Founded in 2014 by Neama Rahmani and Allen Patatanyan, the firm has rapidly grown into one of California’s most formidable plaintiff’s firms. The founders bring a unique pedigree to personal injury law: Neama Rahmani is a former federal prosecutor and Director of Enforcement for the Los Angeles City Ethics Commission, while Allen Patatanyan is a renowned litigator with a history of securing massive settlements. Both began their careers at O’Melveny and Myers, the largest law firm in Los Angeles, representing major corporations like Disney and Marriott. They now leverage that "big law" experience and insider knowledge to fight against insurance companies and corporations on behalf of ordinary people.
