VERDICT $1,722,700

After a hard-fought trial in Van Nuys Superior Court, the jury returned a verdict of $1,722,700.

Lead trial attorneys Jeffrey Twomey and Annie Lofthouse delivered an exceptional performance from start to finish. Annie set the tone with a powerful and emotional opening statement that connected with the jury, and Jeff brought the case home with a compelling closing argument that tied together every piece of evidence.

Brian Breiter presented the direct examination of our client’s treating surgeon, helping the jury understand the full extent of the injuries and the care our client will need moving forward.

A special congratulations to Jack Gonter, our Certified Law Student, who confidently delivered the mini-opening statement and did an outstanding job as part of the trial team.

This was not an easy case. It involved a low-impact collision, minimal property damage, zero past medical bills, a very conservative jurisdiction, an individual defendant, and a relatively minor laminotomy procedure. It was the type of case many would undervalue or avoid trying.

The case came to us from a referring attorney after a very low settlement offer. We believed in the client, believed in the evidence, and believed a jury would see the truth. They did.

This case showcased the power of preparation, teamwork, and the willingness to take a case all the way to trial.

We are grateful to the attorneys who continue to trust us with their clients’ most challenging cases. They know that when necessary, we will prepare every case as if it is going to trial—and we are ready to try it.

If you have a case that deserves maximum value, contact Brian Breiter to discuss how our trial team can help.

$1,000,000 POLICY-LIMIT SETTLEMENT

Proud of the result obtained by Brian Breiter and Shayan Vafaee for our client, a senior citizen who was simply visiting a friend at an adult care facility.

While she was seated in the waiting area waiting to be picked up, a van backed into her and caused serious injuries.

Of course, the defense and insurance company tried to minimize the impact and downplay what this incident did to her life.

We didn’t.

As trial approached, they saw the writing on the wall and ultimately tendered the full $1,000,000 policy limit.

We prepare cases to be tried.
We try cases.
The insurance companies know it.

That is why we are able to get results like this for our clients.

If you are a referring attorney and want a trial team that will fight to maximize the value of your client’s case, reach out to us.

THE MASTERS ARE BACK — LIVE IN THE COURTROOM. ⚖️

For the first time since 2019, LA-ABOTA’s Masters in Trial returns live to the courtroom.

This year, LA-ABOTA will recreate Ferrera v. Terminix — a real pesticide-exposure case that resulted in an $8 million jury verdict.

And this isn’t a hypothetical.

Hon. Norman P. Tarle (Ret.), the actual judge who presided over the trial, will return to the bench to preside again.

Some of Los Angeles’ leading trial lawyers will take the case from voir dire through closing argument, using the actual testimony, evidence, and trial record.

2026 FACULTY & PARTICIPANTS

Boris Treyzon • Chance Pardon • Ninos Saroukhanioff • Ibiere Seck • Edith Mathias • Gene Sullivan • Geoff Norton • Jeff Twomey • Jesse Marr • Casey Hultin • Steve Passarow • Donna Mariansky • Chris Faenza • Brian Breiter

Lawyers and professional actors will also step into the roles of the witnesses:

Joseph Limbaugh • Ryan Medler • Lourdes De Armas • Greyson Goodey • Koorosh K. Shahrokh • Kevin Berntson

Plus, portions of the original videotaped trial testimony will be incorporated into the presentation.

This isn’t a panel of lawyers talking about how they would try a case.

You’re going to watch them do it.

Voir dire. Openings. Direct. Cross. Corporate witnesses. Experts. Impeachment. Closings.

For law students, young lawyers, seasoned litigators, and anyone serious about becoming a better courtroom advocate, this is a rare opportunity to watch accomplished trial lawyers practice their craft up close, inside an actual courtroom, using a real case, before the judge who actually presided over it.

REAL CASE. REAL JUDGE. REAL COURTROOM.
MASTERS OF THE CRAFT.

You don’t win a jury with your opening statement. You earn the right to have them listen.

At CAALA Vegas 2026, I broke down the opening statement from my landmark Uber trial—and, more importantly, how to deliver an opening that actually connects with a jury.

An opening isn’t just about the words on the page. It’s listening. Being present. Reading the room. Knowing when to slow down, when to move, and when to get out of the way and let the story do the work.

A lot of that comes from what we teach at Improv For Trial. You can prepare like crazy—and you should—but when you’re standing in front of 12 people, you still have to be in the moment.

I’ve been doing this a long time, and I still love talking trial. Even better is getting the chance to pass along some of what I’ve learned to the next generation of trial lawyers.

Thank you CAALA for giving me the stage at Vegas 2026.

Keep trying cases. Keep taking chances. And never stop working on the craft.

This week in forgotten Brian Breiter videos from the past…

Yes, that’s me on The Man Show in the Museum of Annoying Guys.

Some people get lifetime achievement awards.

I got put in a museum for being annoying.

Honestly? I’ll take it.

Long before courtrooms, juries, and pretending to be a serious adult, I was apparently building a very specific résumé:

MTV’s Remote Control.
The Man Show.
Museum of Annoying Guys.

At some point, you stop calling these “random appearances” and start calling it a body of work.

And for the record, I’m glad I did it.

If you’re going to embarrass your future self, at least do it on national television.

Enjoy another artifact from the Brian Breiter archives.

I regret nothing.

Well… almost nothing.

Three years in a row. 🏆🏆🏆

Cal West Water Polo — Copa Independencia Champions once again.

Great competition, great friends, and an unforgettable week in beautiful Costa Rica. From the games in the pool to everything we experienced together outside of it, this tournament is about so much more than water polo.

A huge thank you to our host, Aaron Hidalgo, for the incredible hospitality and for helping make the entire experience so special.

Amazing teammates, new friendships, old friendships, tough competition, plenty of laughs, and the true meaning of Pura Vida. 🇨🇷

Three-peat complete. Cal West will be back next year.

🚨 $3,250,000 SETTLEMENT ALERT 🚨

When gig workers make deliveries on behalf of companies, those companies must be held responsible for the harm caused by their drivers. That is exactly what happened in this case.

Sean Bina of CPIA entrusted our firm with the case for litigation. Brian Breiter, a member of ABOTA, Tim McCormick, and Shayan Vafaee spent more than a year aggressively litigating the matter, handling critical motions, and preparing every detail for trial.

The team also incorporated Improv for Trial techniques to strengthen the case presentation, communicate the client’s story authentically, and remain ready to adapt to anything that might happen in the courtroom.

The case ultimately settled for $3,250,000 on the courthouse steps.

That is what it takes to obtain full value: prepare every case as though the jury will decide it.

We love working with our referral partners—and we would love to work with you.
