Aggressive Litigation, Skillful Negotiation, and Genuine Client Relationships Lay the Foundation for the D.A. FIRM

Wednesday, March 3, 2021 | 2448 | 0

The D.A. Firm, or Defense Advocacy Law Firm, is the brainchild of three industry professionals who have over 50 years of combined experience in the workers' compensation industry.   The D.A. Firm has its headquarters in Ontario, and it serves all Northern & Southern California WCAB venues. For more information, please visit www.dafirm.net.  

"The D.A. FIRM is different because we are three minorities who sacrificed everything for our shared dream of building a law firm that encourages a workplace of respect and camaraderie, and provides opportunities for our fellow minorities.  All three of us are accustomed to being underdogs who had to fight for every ounce of success, and we use that same strength in our approach to litigation and claims handling."  Caroline Song Lloyd, Esq.
