About Brendan

Brendan Ford is a Founding Partner of Ford & Diulio PC.  He started the firm with a singular focus – to provide world-class service to his clients, whether the client is an individual, a small business, or a global corporation.  He takes the time to learn about clients’ objectives, and provides strategic and creative legal solutions tailored to those objectives.

But world-class service is not enough.  Brendan also believes that an attorney’s compensation should be tied to the results obtained and the efficiency in obtaining them.  To that end, Ford & Diulio PC handles cases under a variety of fee structures, including pure contingency, hybrid, flat fee, monthly retainers, and phased billing, among others.  While several firms offer contingency fees for personal injury claims (i.e. “we don’t get paid unless you get paid”), Ford & Diulio PC is unique in that it is committed to alternative fees in all types of cases.

He also believes that an educated potential client is an empowered potential client. Ford & Diulio PC provides visitors to the website with free information regarding personal injury claims, business litigation claims, or labor and employment claims (links to practice areas) through blog posts, e-books, checklists, and free reports.

In addition, once a client hires Ford & Diulio PC, we provide them with a client portal through which they can access their case documents 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year. This allows clients to be fully up-to-speed – in real-time – regarding the status of their case.

Brendan’s practice focuses on catastrophic personal injury claims, product liability, complex business litigation, and consumer class actions.  Mr. Ford has significant experience in all phases of litigation including pre-litigation settlements, law and motion, discovery (including e-discovery), depositions, expert discovery, trials, post-trial motions and appeals.  He also has experience arbitrating claims involving partnerships, closely held corporations, and LLCs.

Brendan is an operatic tenor and a former musical theatre actor, and remains passionate about the performing arts. He is currently the Chairman of the Segerstrom Center for the Arts Corporate Council, and a member of the Segerstrom Center for the Arts Business Leadership Committee.
