We pride ourselves on our representation of a number of governmental entities as cities, counties, state agencies, joint power authorities and municipal employees. We are well versed in the procedural and substantive defenses afforded governmental defendants by the Federal Torts Claims Act, the California Torts Claim Act and on such related judicial doctrines as sovereign immunity, standing, exhaustion of remedies, and the government contractor doctrine.
We have represented public entities in cases involving alleged negligent performance of contracts, intentional tort, assault and battery, false arrest, constitutional torts, taking of property, employment and racial discrimination, dangerous conditions of public property, violation of ministerial obligations, and failure to discharge mandatory duties.
