September 25, 2024 – Los Angeles and San Francisco Daily Journal
The firm is pleased to announce that Justin M. Marvisi has been recognized as one of the Los Angeles and San Francisco Daily Journal’s “40 Under 40” for 2024. The prestigious annual list honors the top-performing attorneys under the age of 40 in California. In his profile for the special issue, the Daily Journal discussed Justin’s representation of defendants “in the worst of the worst kinds of cases,” in which the damages exposure is high or liability is undisputed. The profile noted that Justin and his colleagues at the firm are often brought in only months before trial after another law firm has mishandled the case.
“We’re seen as the last line of defense,” noted Justin.
Justin’s profile delves into a number of his recent representations, including his representation of food distributor Sysco Corp., one of the producers of the movie “Rust,” and Ferrari against a claim by a driver who spun out navigating the “corkscrew” turns at the Laguna Seca racetrack. The Daily Journal also highlights a $30 million-plus case that Justin settled last month on behalf of a utility company, which involved an intellectually-disabled man who claimed he was electrocuted and severely injured after a faulty utility meter was bypassed in order to avoid several days without power. During the case, which settled two weeks before trial, Justin argued that the plaintiff did not show injuries typical of contact with an electric unit.
“We were very confident that the gentleman… never sustained an electrical injury at all,” Justin told the Daily Journal. “It just goes to show that… you need to focus on how to make things clear for a layperson to understand.”
