About Leon Lam
Leon Lam, Esq. is an Associate Attorney handling personal injury cases, with prior experience in workers' compensation, employment law, and municipal law - including civil rights litigation. His professional philosophy is simple: fight hard, stay honest, and never lose sight of the human story behind every case. Leon believes great lawyering is both strategic and compassionate - knowing when to push, when to listen, and how to achieve results that truly make a difference. While in law school, Leon participated in the Individual Representation Clinic, where he represented clients in wage and hour disputes through the school's free legal aid program. He successfully secured favorable settlements for his clients after rigorous negotiations with opposing counsel - an experience that reaffirmed his belief in the power of advocacy to deliver fairness and accountability.
Leon became an attorney because he believes everyone deserves a fair chance, regardless of their background or financial means. Growing up, he witnessed how easily everyday people can be taken advantage of when they don't have someone in their corner. That experience drives his work today - standing up for individuals who need a strong advocate when the odds are stacked against them. Leon has professional working proficiency in Vietnamese and is dedicated to ensuring that members of the Vietnamese community have access to quality legal representation.

A Los Angeles jury awarded $35,285,942 to an 81-year-old man who suffered a spinal fracture and permanent injuries after a tractor-trailer rear-ended the vehicle he was riding in on Interstate 10.
A Los Angeles jury awarded $30 million in noneconomic damages in 2023 to Kenya Taylor, whose 6-year-old son was beaten to death by a Los Angeles Unified School District playground worker she had asked to watch him over winter break, and put 90 percent of the fault on the district. The Court of Appeal reversed in June 2025, holding that Education Code section 44808 made the district immune because the death happened off campus, and directed judgment for the district.
An 11-year-old with an IEP requiring door-to-door transport was abandoned at the school curb by district staff, struck by a car on a four-lane road, and left with permanent brain damage; the $28.5 million settlement against Victor Elementary School District was the largest pedestrian accident settlement in California in 2019.
A Los Angeles jury awarded $13,872,900 to a 42-year-old motorcyclist who said a low-speed collision caused neck and groin injuries. In December 2025 the Court of Appeal vacated the judgment and ordered a new trial because the plaintiff disclosed a new medical expert seven days before trial.
