About the Authors
Larry Booth graduated first in his class from the University of Southern California Law Center in 1959,
where he was Editor in Chief of the Law Review. After trying over 200 criminal
cases as a prosecuting attorney and then practicing in criminal defense, Mr.
Booth worked at Silver, McWilliams & Booth in Los Angeles for 20 years as
the lead trial attorney. There he achieved multiple multi-million dollar
results in construction and products liability cases.
In 1984, he opened his own firm in Torrance, California,
now known as Booth & Koskoff. Booth & Koskoff continued to concentrate
on high profile personal injury and death cases in a wide variety of
cases including auto defects, construction accidents, products
liability, drugs, malpractice, governmental liability, and more. To date
they have produced over 75 verdicts and settlements in excess of one
million dollars.
In 1974, he was elected to the Inner Circle of Advocates, which is a
national organization limited to the top 100 trial lawyers in the United States.
In 1978, he was the President of the Los Angeles Trial Lawyers
Association.
Roger Booth has handled many large,
complex cases, representing both plaintiffs and defendants, and both
individuals and corporations, throughout California
and the United States,
in a legal career that began in 1991. Since 1997, he has focused on
representing people who have suffered catastrophic injuries or the loss
of a loved one.
Mr. Booth
graduated from Boalt Hall School of Law at the
University
of California Berkeley
in 1991. From 1991-97, Mr. Booth was an associate at Pillsbury, Madison
& Sutro (then the largest law firm in California) in San Francisco,
where he handled a variety of large complex business litigation and
insurance bad faith matters.
In 1997, Mr. Booth joined his
father, Larry Booth, at Booth & Koskoff and quickly made his mark as a
plaintiff’s attorney. In 1998, in just his second personal injury trial,
he obtained a $1.6 million verdict in Orange
County, setting a record for a hand injury
case in that jurisdiction. Since then, Mr. Booth has handled more
than 20 cases that have resulted in verdicts or settlement in excess of
$1,000,000. In 2009 and 2010, he was named a “Super Lawyer,” an honor
limited to the top 5% of attorneys in Southern
California.
