June marked the beginning of my 50th year as a criminal defense attorney.  It seems like only yesterday that I started my career as a deputy probation officer and was going to law school at the same time.  As I look through all my many memories and experiences one feeling surpases all others--I have always loved what I do and I still do.  Helping people in trouble has always given me great satisfaction, and I think it shows in the results I have been able to achieve.  I'm especially proud of my certification as a Criminal Law Specialist by the California State Bar and having been twice selected by Los Angeles Magazine as a "Super Lawyer".

If I am your attorney, you have my promise that I will personally work on your case and give it the highest level of attention possible.  I have an excellent staff, but there are many things that must and should be done by only an attorney.  That is why I am extremely hands on, and I think about my cases 24/7.  My office and I will not only do great work, but we will do it quickly.  No case is left behind.  Because of a slow and congested court system, we file our cases right away, and litigate them as fast as the court will allow us.  Not only does this speed things up, but I find that it yields even better results.  I believe we move our cases along quicker than anyone in town.  However, we also need to consider that some cases take longer to develop, and in those instances a little more patience is necessary.. When I am not working, which is rare, I am playing with my 2 boys, and/or rooting for the LA Kings and Denver Broncos.  And, lest I forget, spending time with my wonderful wife.. If you have a personal injury case, give us a call.  The consultation is absolutely free and there are no strings attached.  I am happy to answer questions or point you in the right direction if I can't help.

I understand that each client has only one case and I make that case as important to me as it is to my client.  I have been involved in real estate projects and entrepreneur-ed successful retail and wholesale businesses. My diverse background allows me to understand the mindset of why clients need an ambitious attorney who listens and takes care of their needs.

I represent employers in:

I also handle litigation relating to purchases and financing.. A number of my clients become involved in creatinve transactions, which has enabled me to broaden my ways of adderssing transactions.. I have been litigating real estate related cases in the State courts in Southern California since the 1970's as well.. My commercial clients often enter transactions in the form of limited liability companies. As a result, I review, prepare and modify operating agreements for these entities.. I have a B.A. in Economics from Northwestern University and a J.D. from UCLA School of am invlved in my college's alumni association and am a member of the American Bar Association. I have been married 42 years and have two children, both of who are attorneys. I live in the Hollywood Hills area of Los Angeles.

I joined the firm in 1988 first as a file clerk during my undergraduate years at UCLA.  I then became a legal secretary, legal assistant, and ultimately an attorney and am still here!  Fred and I work very well together and have been able to navigate many complex landlord-tenant matters throughout our careers.  I have handled hundreds of relocation projects as well as a myriad of other landlord-tenant issues.  I pride myself on being both forthright and realistic with clients. I do not pull any punches.  This area of the law has become significantly more complex to navigate as of late, and I am weathering the storm right along side of my clients.

I have successfully represented personal injury victims and persons accused of crime with passion and compassion for over 40 years.

I have practiced exclusively in the areas of bankruptcy, insolvency, and consumer protection for my entire career.  I formerly worked for the largest consumer bankruptcy law firm in San Diego and I have personally handled hundreds of bankruptcy cases.  From the simplest cases to complex business cases, I have handled it all.  Bankruptcy, though, is not the solution for every problem.  I also have a passion for consumer protection, real estate law and foreclosure defense.  If you have a problem that relates to debt, your home or your credit, then I have a solution.. FEES: I understand the need for affordable quality legal representation.  Compared to my competitors, our fees are very affordable.  I also offer payment plans – you can retain my firm for as little as $ down and we can get started on your case.

I also do any other area of law that you need.

I also provide private mediation services, and services as an arbitrator.  I have acted as a mediator or arbitrator in hundreds of challenging cases, running the gamut from negligence to employment to real estate disputes, and beyond.  Mediations or arbitrations are held in my office or that of one of the parties.  Fees for private dispute resolution services are very reasonable.

I graduated in the top 10 percent of my class in 2010 from Southwestern Law School.  I also had the opportunity and privilege to serve as a member of Law Review.  I truly enjoy my practice because it gives me a chance to fight for those who are injured and aggrieved through the negligence or intentional acts of others.  It gives me much joy when I am able to obtain justice for my most deserving clients.  In fact, nothing makes me more satisfied in life than when I make life-long connections with my clients after obtaining justice on their behalf.  I care about each and every person I speak with, and I always try my best to give my clients the best possible representation.  I am a caring and passionate individual, and always strive to become the best in what I do.

I earned my Bachelor of Science degree in Neuroscience from UCLA in 1998, before briefly entering medical school at Semmelweis University in Budapest, Hungary. In 2001, I changed direction and made a decision to begin a career in Workers’ Compensation, first as an Administrator of medical-legal affairs for a well-known medical provider, and, after receiving my JD from Southwestern University School of Law in 2009, as an attorney.. Since 2011, I have focused my professional endeavors on the defense of Workers’ Compensation matters, representing permissibly self-insured entities, insurance companies, TPAs and PEOs, as well as the occasional uninsured employer. I have been been able to utilize his considerable medical background, and medical-legal experience, in developing and implementing case management and litigation strategies to maximize early case resolution or mitigation of exposure in a variety of cases.. I have extensive experience in handling matters ranging from the straightforward orthopedic-only claim to complex matters involving multiple claims of injury, multiple body parts, multiple defendants, and high exposure, as well as claims involving serious and willful misconduct, and alleged disability discrimination under Labor Code §132(a).. I am admitted to practice in California and before the United States District Court for the Central District of California.

I created Malatesta Law for one reason - to represent individuals who have been subjected to unlawful conduct by their employers.. I am passionate about fighting for my clients and standing up to employers for their violations of the law. I strongly believe that employees deserve to be treated fairly and that no individual should be discriminated against, retaliated against, or harassed at work. I also believe that every employee deserves to be paid all of the wages they are owed, and provided all meal and rest breaks that they are entitled to, for each day that they work. When an employer does not uphold its obligations under the law, I vigorously fights for my clients so that they receive the compensation they deserve.. Because I only represents employees in employment law matters, I have a deep understanding of employment law. Through years of experience representing employees against employers, I know what it takes to successfully litigate an employee's claims and recover the damages my clients deserve.. I am fully committed to each of my clients and providing each client with the highest level of legal representation. I give each of my clients the time, attention, and resources that their case deserves.. I earned my undergraduate degree at the University of Michigan where I graduated with High Distinction and I received my Juris Doctor from the UCLA School of Law.

I am wired to help.  I am passionate about justice and making things right.  Those qualities made the law a natural choice for me, even though women traditionally had not been well-represented in the legal profession before I began law school in the 1970's.. Over the years, I've helped hundreds - perhaps more than a thousand - people whose lives were changed because someone was careless - driving a truck or car, refusing to fix a potentially dangerous condition, or providing medical care.  Some of those clients have become friends; many have written to thank me for the support I provided while I was handling their lawsuit.. In addition to my professional work, I am actively involved in community service, where most of what I do helps children and the disabled.  Having represented dozens of children with serious birth injuries, I have a unique understanding of the challenges facing them and their families. Through my legal work, I can often make life easier by securing for my clients the financial resources needed to provide optimum care to a child with cerebral palsy or other serious injuries.. Through my community service work, which includes an annual equestrian event for "special" athletes, I help give these children a chance to shine and their families a day to celebrate their special children.  It is my favorite day of the year.. In addition to years of experience, I've earned the respect of my peers and those against whom I litigate.  I'm proud to have a reputation for excellence, empathy and tenacity when fighting on behalf of my clients.  An attorney who is well-respected and whom the other side knows is capable of taking a worthy case to trial and getting a good verdict, is one who has an easier time resolving cases for the people she represents.. I am a wife and mother, as well as a lawyer, and I think that experience is valuable to who I am and what I do professionally.. I look forward to helping you, should the need arise and hope you will keep me in mind when friends or family need an advocate to make things right.
