S. David Rosenthal

For over 27 years, I have dedicated my career exclusively to fighting for clients to recover damages for the human and economic loss that occurs after traumatic injuries caused by someone else's carelessness, inattention, recklessness or malicious intent. I have handled hundreds of personal injury cases, simple and complex, involving car accidents, bicycle accidents, motorcycle accidents, boating accidents, defective vehicles, dangerous conditions on property, dog bites or other negligence. Many cases have resolved only after long drawn out battles in litigation or jury trials against insurance companies, corporations, government agencies, or other defendants.

My interest in helping individuals versus powerful corporations started in college when I studied the development of individual rights in constitutional law. In the era of civil rights, the Supreme Court of the United States issued many decisions that granted rights to the little guy over corporations or the government. It was a time when the scales of justice tilted in favor of the underdog. It reaffirmed that each person has valuable rights and that our justice system provides a method of redressing wrongs.

My goal is to get justice for every client in every case. Over the years, I have continued to improve my litigation skills through practice and learning the latest in litigation theories and techniques. I have stayed active and given presentations in consumer trial lawyer organizations like Consumer Attorneys of California, the Capital City Trial Lawyers Association, and the American Association of Justice. I currently serve as a vice president for the Capital City Trial Lawyers Association, the association for plaintiff trial attorney's in the Sacramento region. I'm rated 10/10 by AVVO and "AV Preeminent" by Martindale Hubbel, the highest possible rating for legal ability and ethical standards. I'm also a member of the Million Dollar Advocates Forum and Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forums.
