With their wide-ranging trial expertise, the attorneys of White Oliver & Amundson can assist clients facing all manner of legal issues, from business, professional liability, construction, and probate disputes to products liability, employment, taxation, and real estate litigation. “Because most cases settle, the number of people who actually try cases and do so successfully is really rather small,” says Daniel White, who founded the firm in 1996. “But sometimes these matters do need to be argued before a jury, and we have a lot of experience in doing that.” Though it handles some plaintiffs’ work, White Oliver & Amundson is primarily a defense firm, working on behalf of insurance companies, corporations, manufacturers, and individuals. The firm

is ranked Tier 1 in San Diego by U.S. News – Best Lawyers “Best Law Firms” for defendants’ legal malpractice law and personal injury litigation in 2015, with Dan White previously receiving Best Lawyers’ San Diego Lawyer of the Year in both areas, and again as Best Lawyers’ Lawyer of the Year in Legal Malpractice for 2016. In addition, White, along with partners Susan Oliver and Steven Amundson, has been regularly included in The Best Lawyers in America and Super Lawyers and is AV-Preeminent rated by MartindaleHubbell. “Preparation and thoroughness are the keys to being successful in this field,” White notes. “In the litigation arena, the courtroom is the ultimate forum where disputes are decided, and having the ability to help people in that respect has been very rewarding.”
