Elliot Siegel, Esq.

Class Action, Employment & Labor - Plaintiff (Litigation)

Los Angeles, California

Personal Introduction

Elliot Siegel graduated with honors (cum laude) from NYU School of Law and practiced at some of the country’s biggest litigation firms where he learned to litigate strategically, aggressive, and efficiently by some of the best trial lawyers in the Country. It was here that Mr. Siegel saw how important access to competent and good counsel was in navigating the legal system, and how rarely employees and other members of the public could find that type of representation. This realization led him to dedicate his career to representing employees and consumers who lacked the resources to protect themselves from being preyed on by their employers or unscrupulous businesses by co-founding King & Siegel in early 2018. Mr. Siegel’s work has resulted in him to being named a “Rising Star” by Super Lawyers each year since co-founding King & Siegel, an honor extended to only 3% of lawyers under 40 statewide.
