Business litigation is a make or break proposition for many companies. Choosing an attorney who handles business litigation can be one of the most important decisions for your business.

For instance, healthcare is a rampant area of fraud involving healthcare providers submitting inflated or false bills to Medicare or Medi-Cal, stealing hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars every year.

California contract law has set forth rules on many aspects of contracts. For example, the law on what happens when there is an ambiguity in the contract can turn on who wrote the contract and what the terms of the contract state. Sometimes, industry experts may need to explain what a word meant in certain types of business contracts.
Elder abuse is one of the most disgusting elements in our society. The elderly are one of the most vulnerable segments of our society. Unfortunately, some people find it fit to take unfair advantage of them, either through financial or physical abuse. The largest contributor to such abuse is isolation.

Ara helped me with an auto collision claim. Opposing party did not want to cooperate, so Ara fought on my behalf to handle all the insurance headaches (vehicular and medical). Communication was swift and efficient, yet thorough and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to seek their help if I ever needed to in the future. Thank you for helping bring closure to my case!

I was looking to get a couple of questions answered regarding a private contractor job I was considering taking. The contract was based out of Texas and I was not sure what was and wasn't applicable to me being in California and working in this state. I had contacted another firm and they wanted a $5000.00 retainer just to say hello. I went back to google and called Law Offices of Ara Jabagchourian, and I can not explain in full details how different that conversation went. He was very professional, with an easy conversation. I had my answers in about 5min. He offered this advice to me FREE OF

If you’re lucky enough to retain his services, you’ll get an A+ attorney operating at a very high level. Ara took over my case that another attorney had wasted 2 years screwing up. In 6 months Ara had them at the negotiating table, and they were all of a sudden back-peddling and Ara was able to secure a life altering settlement for me. Thanks again, Ara.

We interviewed a large number of attorneys for a very complicated case involving issues including shoring, real estate, easements, construction, etc. We hired a large, prominent law firm to represent us during the contract negotiations. Unfortunately, even though we thought we had an airtight contract, things did not work out and when we went back to the firm for assistance they told us that they don’t handle any form of litigation. We were forced to start interviewing new law firms. Throughout the course of our dispute we interviewed over a dozen different attorneys. They made all sorts of promises

I have had the pleasure of knowing Ara for a number of years, and I could not recommend him more highly! Not only is he a strong litigator (having helped my family win a large breach of contract case), but he is also an extremely trustworthy and compassionate individual with a realistic approach to addressing complicated legal matters. He has always been very responsive, patient and easy to talk to, making working with him a pleasure. Ara delivers the perfect mix of talented professionalism, solid results and a winning personality. He is the real deal!

I contacted Ara regarding a case that I have with an online bank. My experience with Ara was that he is extremely knowledgeable, responsive, and professional. He fully understood and answered all of my questions and concerns. He checked in on the case regularly to make sure that it progressed as needed. I felt secure and comfortable knowing that I was in good hands. The case ended up being resolved in my favor.

Mr. Jabagchourian's legal services are timely and comprehensive. He is very responsive, extremely attentive to detail, committed to integrity, and determined to do the best that he can for his client(s). Equally important, if not the most important - he is kind to and empathetic toward clients who are experiencing difficult circumstances.

In the winter of 2019, a construction crew outside of my home made an error that resulted in an explosion on the gas line, burning down my home and all the possessions therein. Frantic and distraught, I was connected with Ara through a friend, and sought his representation against the construction company. Ara was truly a pleasure to work with - he was empathetic, firm in negotiations, always honest about the reality of the situation, quick to communicate, and patient to my questions and thoughts. As someone who has never had to seek legal counsel, it's easy to wonder if you're being taken advantage

With Ara Jabagchourian in your corner, rest assured you're working with the highest caliber professional in the game. In a time of great suffering and uncertainty about my own future following a terrible motorcycle accident, Ara established himself as a tireless supporter and advocate on my behalf, and was extremely effective in his efforts - from negotiations with the insurance companies of both parties involved to the final steps in our case. We settled for the full claim, including the responsible party's umbrella policy, and could not be happier with the outcome.

Choosing the Law Offices of Ara Jabagchourian was the best decision that I could have made. Following the wrongful death of my father in a tragic car accident, I was seeing representation on his behalf. I thought that by choosing an attorney who was not in my town would be a difficult experience, but Ara was very adequate with his communication with me which made the process easier. Ara showed a tremendous amount of compassion towards me and the tragic situation that I was in. I felt that he was truly fighting for my father. His great level of expertise is what made me feel confident. He paid great

Ara was there for me at one of the hardest times in my life.
I was hit by a car riding my bicycle and suffered a spinal cord injury and many broken bones.
He worked with my insurance company to help me receive what I had owed to me. He also worked as a go between Kaiser and my insurance agency to get everything covered!
He has since helped my friends and family with their law needs and I would recommend him without hesitation.
Thanks Ara you are really great at what you do!

Ara is an excellent attorney. Ara represented my father after he was hit by a car and suffered severe injuries. We selected Ara from a deep list of potential lawyers based on his personal injury experience and track record, which is incredibly impressive.
Ara was extremely effective at building my father's case. Before he got involved, the insurance company was looking to settle for a pittance. Ara immediately brought in a team of highly-qualified experts who documented the severity and extent of my father's injuries, and then quantified the damages, as well as pain and suffering

Ara is a rare breed. He is straight-forward, articulate, and genuinely accessible. At our first meeting he laid out a few scenarios of potential resolutions for my lawsuit, and a year and a half later, there i was, with the exact options i had hoped for. Ara blew me (an opposing counsel) away. There were a million little instances where his research check mated any chance of rebuttal, and it provided me an opportunity to sit back and watch him work. I needed straight forward, and i what i got was an attorney who respected my wishes, spoke to me with respect, and achieved exactly what he promised
