Harowitz & Tigerman: Experienced California Trial Attorneys Working for You
We are trial lawyers. We help people, not corporations. We work for individuals and their families: for those who suffer from asbestos exposure and mesothelioma, from childhood injuries and elder abuse, from defective products, toxic chemicals, auto accidents and more. We are experienced listeners and effective advocates.
We are at home in the courtrooms of California: in San Francisco, Marin, Oakland, San Jose, Sacramento, the Bay Area and Los Angeles. We have tried more than seventy jury cases, and we have won hundreds of millions of dollars for our clients. We have the highest rating given to lawyers by Martindale-Hubbell, the most prestigious directory of lawyers in the country.
Our website is designed to help you learn more about the cases we handle, but it is no substitute for expert legal advice. Learn more about asbestos and mesothelioma, products liability, personal injury and wrongful death, construction and workplace injuries, nursing home neglect and elder abuse, birth and childhood injuries, and toxic exposure torts, and then give us a call. Your initial consultation is free.
Please contact us so that we can put our experience to work for you.
