ABOUT US Khorrami Pollard & Abir, LLP, one of the largest plaintiff-only firms in California, is dedicated to protecting the rights of individuals against large corporate interests.  Founded by Shawn Khorrami in 1996 as a solo practice, just two months after he was admitted to practice law, the firm only accepts cases on a contingency basis – meaning that our clients never pay for our services unless we successfully handle their matters. With a staff of experienced lawyers, Khorrami Pollard & Abir, LLP, can handle large and complex cases. Whether it’s thousands of individuals injured by a drug, or thousands of victims of a natural disaster, the firm has the resources and the expertise to represent each of their cases against even the largest of corporations.  We have prosecuted cases against Google, Yahoo, McDonalds, Philip Morris, Coca-Cola, Eli Lilly, Merck, Wyeth Pharmaceuticals, and many more. In the past five years, the firm has obtained more than $300 million in verdicts and settlements for clients throughout the U.S.  In fact, we currently represent more than 10,000 individuals in a variety of cases – including pharmaceuticals, product liability, natural disasters, toxic torts, labor and employment matters.  Where appropriate, we handle cases as class actions.  Currently, our class actions cover millions of individuals who have been victims of fraud, defective products, unfair or illegal employment practices, and even civil rights violations.  Our depth of talent and collaborative culture enable us to provide clients with sophisticated and innovative solutions to their legal problems. Our firm attracts and retains the best attorneys by practicing at the highest levels of the legal profession in a culture that emphasizes collegiality, respect for everyone, professional and business ethics, and duty to the profession and our communities.  Our goal is to help our clients, not just litigate their cases.
