I emigrated from the former Soviet Union in 1983.  I was 19 years old. After learning English, I attended USC and graduated in the 90s.  Then, I attended Loyola Law School in Los Angeles.. Since graduating law school, I have practiced workers' compensation law and advocated exclusively on behalf of injured employees, never representing insurance companies in these matters.. My partner, Stephen Godwin, and I are committed to giving each case we accept our complete attention, without outsourcing any work to other attorneys.  That means we don't employ contract attorney to work on our cases, attend depositions and hearing.  We handle our cases ourselves.. On a personal note, I have 3 kids and even 1 grandkid.

Having grown up under the tutelage of his father Mark Sherry, a well-respected workers’ compensation attorney, Brett learned at an early age that a truly rewarding legal career starts with hard work, dedication, and helping others. This lesson is what led Brett to become a zealous advocate for his clients, fighting for their rights and maximizing the results of each and every case. Brett has always believed in connecting with his clients in order to fully understand their needs and that such a relationship is built upon communication and making himself available to his clients.. A Southern California native, Brett was born in Santa Monica and raised in Orange County in a beautiful city called Rancho Santa Margarita. Brett attended the University of California, Santa Barbara and graduated with a B.A. in Political Science in 2010. He then later received his J.D. from the University of Glendale College of Law in 2018.. In his free time, Brett loves being around family and friends, and rooting for his favorite sports teams: the Lakers, Dodgers, and Rams. Brett also likes going to the beach, golfing, playing basketball, and enjoying many other outdoor activities.. Dedicated to his craft, Brett’s focus is not only on winning cases but, more importantly, finding a way to better the lives of his clients and their families. Brett feels the joy from this profession comes in the form of gratitude and appreciation his clients bestow on him whose circumstances have improved as a result of his help.

First of all, although his name is "Mark Daniel", Mr. Melnick is known to his friends as simply "Dan" (it's a long story).Dan Melnick was born in Santa Monica, California and he grew up in the San Fernando Valley. After high school he got a job working for United Artists as a production assistant and spent nearly a year in Yugoslavia making (and appearing in) the movie Fiddler on the Roof. Upon his return to the U.S. Dan attended UCLA and graduated in 1975. Following his graduation from UCLA he went to work helping a family friend finish building a 60 foot cement sail boat and helped him sail it to Hawaii during the summer of 1975. With 2500 miles and 3 months of sailing behind him Dan returned and  attended Law School at the University of San Fernando Valley School of law, graduating in 1978. During his years in college and law school he worked and supported himself as a night crew and deli clerk at Ralphs Grocery store in Sherman Oaks. Notably, Dan is still friends with many of his old coworkers from his days of stocking shelves.Shortly after passing the Bar exam Mr. Melnick went to work in Chicago as a management labor law and labor relations consultant for the premiere consulting firm in the country. In 1983 he again returned to the Los Angeles area to practice labor law, but that didn't last long. Early in his practice Mr. Melnick was referred a criminal case for trial. He tried the case and realized that criminal defense was his calling. It was in criminal defense that he felt he was able to truly provide a service that helped people on a personal level. Instead of reading contracts and arguing with management and unions he was able to work in a court room directly with his clients and juries. Most importantly, instead of helping big companies he was now able to protect "the little Guy" from the often oppressive government prosecutors. Since that first case, Dan Melnick has handled thousands of criminal cases of virtually every type, large and small, and to this day he continues to fight for the individual.In his spare time Dan is an avid ice hockey player and he has played all over the world including Austria, Australia, Finland, Norway and Sweden. Fifteen years ago one of the local leagues was named in his honor when the name was changed to the "Melnick Division". He is also a licensed Scuba Instructor and a commercially licensed sea captain with a fifty ton masters license. In 2002, Dan sold his law practice and left for an extended cruise on his sailboat. After sailing the waters of Mexico and Central America all the way to Costa Rica (4000 miles) in all kinds of  weather, Dan returned to Los Angeles in 2006 and returned to the practice of law.  Because of his background, Dan can relate to people from all walks of life., He is a guy who is comfortable in a tuxedo or shorts and a t-shirt. He can (and has) fit in at the best Beverly Hills bistro or the corner bar in Van Nuys.  All of his experience and success, legal and otherwise, gives Dan Melnick the knowledge,  patience,  understanding and strength to deal with the stess and concerns of his clients and the ability to sucessfully fight the stringent demands of the legal system.

As a child, my passion has always been in the automotive industry. When i was 14 years old i started collecting classic cars with my family as a hobby. Furthermore, i have friends and family in the auto body industry which allowed me to carry out my passion in restoring and repairing cars. At that time i figured when im older i want to be involved in the automotive industry. That is when i decided if i became an attorney that practiced law primarily in the automotive industry i would be living my passion. Since i was about 15 years old i have been working towards that goal by learning every detail about any car that sparked my interest (which is a lot). Since then i have learned a lot about the Lemon Law, and personal injury in relation to car accidents given my constant hobby of reading about automotive related issues, and hanging around my family and friend's auto body shops and learning the legal issues that come about in that industry. As a law student i interned at the Law Office of Robert L. Starr. At this highly litigating law firm i learned all aspects of the legal career both in the perspective of automotive knowledge as it relates to safety issues, and the litigation process. After finishing law school and taking the California Bar Examination, Robert Starr hired me because he saw the passion that we both shared about the automotive industry, and wanting to help consumers with automotive issues in relation to the Lemon Law and Dealer Fraud. After learning and understanding the process involved, I decided to open my own law office which is calledThe Law Office of Jacob K. Kashani, A.P.C.
