introduction
Since 1999, Ms. Ghassemian has defended numerous National and California construction companies in a variety of lawsuits ranging from multi-million dollar complex litigation matters to much smaller cases. On the construction side, she represents architects, engineers, home builders, custom homeowners as well as companies involved in construction. As for business, her clients consist of an array of small businesses, including medical groups, dentists, accountants and other corporate entities. Her master’s degree in physics has performed an essential role in construction defect cases where an attorney has to assemble the right team of experts to opine about the defects, as well as be able to translate the experts’ complex scientific language for the clients, opposing counsel and the court.
