About Jenna Edzant

Jenna Edzant focuses on catastrophic injury, traumatic brain injury, premises liability, and product liability. She helped win the country's highest-ever non-lethal dog bite verdict and an eight-figure verdict for a slip-and-fall client. She successfully represented two victims against the UC Regents for decades of hazing and sexual assault at the UCLA Alumni Bruin Woods summer camp, which led to the camp's temporary closure and significant safety reforms. She was a member of the trial team that obtained a $6.1 million verdict for two UC Riverside whistleblowers who exposed misappropriation of a $15 million state mental health grant.

She also helped secure a $6 million settlement for a heart transplant surgeon who suffered permanent nerve damage after slipping at a Los Angeles hospital. She earned her B.S. in Experimental Psychology from UCLA and Oxford University (summa cum laude) and her J.D. from the University of Southern California Gould School of Law (2021). She serves as Education Chair for CAOC's New Lawyers Division.
