The McClellan Law Firm
About the firm
Founded in 1987 by Craig R. McClellan, The McClellan Law Firm handles catastrophic personal injury, product liability, and business litigation for clients throughout San Diego and Southern California. The firm intentionally limits its caseload to no more than 15 active matters at a time and has secured more than 150 verdicts and settlements in excess of one million dollars.
Notable results
A Tulare County jury awarded $28,163,528 after finding Caltrans 90% liable for a 13-year-old's catastrophic injuries at a 60 mph, five-lane crosswalk the agency had known was dangerous for two decades.
A San Diego jury awarded $15,771,234 to the wife and three children of a bicyclist killed on El Camino Real in Carlsbad by a driver who fell asleep at the wheel after a night shift, in what was reported as the largest net wrongful death verdict in San Diego County history.
A San Diego jury found the Porsche Turbo 930 defective not from a single mechanical failure but because the car's power and handling characteristics made it inherently too dangerous for ordinary drivers, awarding $2.5 million to the family of Donald Fresh in what was the first U.S. verdict of its kind against an automaker.
Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome. Each case is unique and depends on its own facts.
