Charles Windon - Los Angeles Personal Injury Lawyer Reviews & Ratings

Hard work and determination were instilled in Charles Windon from his youth. His father was a talented attorney, and his mother, an immigrant from Sweden, was a successful real estate agent. Part of a proud legal legacy, he achieved his childhood dream of following in his father’s footsteps. Law is more than a profession to Windon, it’s also deeply personal. In the 1950s, his aunt was hit and dragged by a bus, leaving her severely injured and without defense. Back then, she couldn’t find an attorney willing to represent a black plaintiff, particularly against a powerful bus company. Windon says, “There are many inequities and inequalities in the legal system that we’re still trying to combat, especially in criminal defense and personal injury.”. Before joining Adamson Ahdoot, Windon was a Deputy Public Defender at the Los Angeles County Public Defender’s Office, where he was a steadfast advocate for his clients and their rights. He is a member of the California Bar Association and licensed to practice in all state courts. Windon serves on the board of Death Penalty Focus, a California nonprofit committed to abolishing the death penalty through public education and other efforts. When he's not helping others, you can find this sports fan on the putting green or cheering on the LA Lakers and Pittsburgh Steelers.
