Los Angeles, California
Personal Introduction
Makoa Kawabata is skilled in seeing cases through to verdict, having tried more than two dozen matters before juries. His success representing both plaintiffs and defendants gives him the perspective to anticipate opposing parties’ strategies and weaknesses, as well as to recognize when resolution before trial is the best option. Mr. Kawabata was a member of the team that represented owners of VW vehicles marketed as “clean diesel” but secretly equipped by Volkswagen with illegal software designed to cover up a massive conspiracy to deceive the EPA and the American public. Mr. Kawabata was also a member of the team that represented the EPA’s environmental remediation contractor involved in federal multi-district litigation arising from the Gold King Mine spill. Both events were covered on the front page of the New York Times.
