Northern California Personal Injury Lawyer
Molly C. Harrington
I am a California native and have lived in the Bay Area since law school. As far back as I can remember, I wanted to be a trial lawyer. I worked throughout law school, both in preeminent plaintiffs' law firms in Los Angeles as well as the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office where I honed my courtroom skills.
I was admitted to the California bar in 1996 and have practiced exclusively on behalf of plaintiffs. I am driven by my belief that clients are entitled to fair compensation for their injuries. I have extensive experience in personal injury matters, medical malpractice, products liability as well as employment law, including sexual harassment and discrimination.
