Managing Partner

“Barak immediately helped me focus on arriving at a settlement. Within three months my case was settled in mediation. I got my life back – as well as the opportunity to put a terrible set of circumstances behind me. Thanks to the help of Barak and his most capable associates, I am now able to move forward and focus on my own productivity so that I can invest my time and effort on profitable future endeavors.”

About Barak Lurie

Top-rated attorney in California and beyond.

Barak Lurie is the Managing Partner of the Firm. Barak practices primarily in litigation, with an emphasis on business and real estate matters. He also has substantial experience in bankruptcy work, representing trustees and creditors. Barak’s clients include a wide variety of businesses and high net worth individuals defending or pursuing claims for breach of contract, fraud, and commercial disputes. Barak also has substantial experience in high-profile commercial evictions.

During his legal career, Barak worked for Luce, Forward, Hamilton & Scripps, as well as Christensen, Miller (now Glaser, Weil), top-notch large law firms. He also worked at the highly respected firm of Danning, Gill, Diamond & Kollitz. Barak also served as General Counsel to Donald Sterling, real estate mogul and owner of the Los Angeles Clippers. There, Barak took on major legal disputes for Mr. Sterling, and became a principal attorney in the successful appeal of Sterling v. Taylor, reversing the lower court’s decision. In addition, in 2000, Barak founded and also became CEO of his own company, RightPro, which developed a unique internet-based marketing tool for professionals. As a result of this experience, Barak became intimately familiar with the needs and motivations of entrepreneurs — having been one himself. After spending 15 years honing his legal skills in these firms, Barak started his own practice in 2004.

Barak’s experience maximizes the odds that a case will be successfully settled. “It’s rare that settlement is not the best result for a client,” Lurie says. “That way, the client minimizes the risk of a huge loss at trial, and can also have control of the outcome.” However, when trial has proven necessary, Barak has prevailed in court time and again, earning verdicts in the millions of dollars. His focus is always on the best and most cost-effective result for the client.

Barak is passionate about Israel, mountain biking, lacrosse, and veganism. He has served on the Board of PragerU and many other pro-Israel and boards promoting pro-Judeo-Christian values. Barak is also an accomplished best-selling author of the Atheism Kills series, and has a weekly radio show, the Barak Lurie Show, in Los Angeles. He’s also made numerous appearances on Newsmax and many other news outlets, commentating about law and political issues of the day.
