About Law Firm
In 1999, Johnnie L. Cochran, Jr. and his Partners embarked to start a National law firm. To do so, they sought the most skilled and talented trial lawyer available. Already attracting national attention on cases he had tried and settled, they contacted Los Angeles Trial Attorney Randy H. McMurray.
After some months of negotiations, Johnnie Cochran and Randy McMurray had lunch at Patina Restaurant in Downtown Los Angeles to close the deal and form their Partnership. Mr. Cochran and Mr. McMurray had first met years ago in the Central Civil West Courthouse, where Randy was trying the remainder of a case after settling out the manufacturer of a well-known pharmaceutical anti-depressant drug. Remarkably, the first settlement in the history of the drug’s usage. Meanwhile, Johnnie was defending the University of Southern California in a civil case just next door.
After reaching an agreement, Mr. Randy H. McMurray became the only Managing Partner of Johnnie L. Cochran, Jr.’s law firm, which would become known as The Cochran Firm Los Angeles.
More notably, Mr. McMurray remained the only Managing Partner of The Cochran Firm Los Angeles, until that firm’s dissolution in 2012. Following which, The Cochran Law Group, LLP was formed in 2013, with Mr. McMurray as the Managing Partner of that firm as well.
In late 2013, that firm became what is today known as McMurray Henriks, LLP, with reputable Business & Commercial Litigation Attorney Yana G. Henriks, who is licensed to practice law in three countries, as co-partner.
Moreover, Mr. Randy H. McMurray has been named as a “Super Lawyer†and a “Law Dragon Top Attorney†for over 7 years. He has likewise been deemed a “preeminent†lawyer by an AV rating through Martindale-Hubbell for over 10 years, distinguishing Mr. McMurray at the highest level of professional excellence from his peers.
In 2009, Mr. McMurray became the 60th and only African-American President of the Consumer Attorneys Association of Los Angeles, also known as “CAALA.†CAALA is the largest attorney association in the United States. This event also marked the election of the first African-American President of the United States of America, Barack H. Obama
Randy H. McMurray has represented members of both highly established, as well as the most disadvantaged, elements of our society, including those wrongfully injured and killed by Police Officers’ use of excessive force. Randy has also represented celebrity clients such as Goldie Hawn, Randy & Evi Quaid, Patti LaBelle, Congressman Julian Dixon’s wife, Bettie Dixon, members of the famed Tuskegee Airmen, Red Tails, and Hall of Fame Dodgers Pitcher, Don Newcomb, in various areas of civil litigation.
Mr. McMurray continues to believe in the values of his late partner, Johnnie L. Cochran Jr., who used to say “We represent the OJs and No-Jays†of the world. Together, Randy H. McMurray, Yana Henriks, and the McMurray Henriks, LLP team, continue that legacy into the 21st Century.

Reviews
I could not have asked for a more kind and professionally outstanding attorney. Mrs. Henriks truly knows her craft and walks the extra mile. She is exceptionally knowledgeable and an incredible advocate and did not hesitate to go to the Appellate Court to defend my case. Mrs. Henriks is extremely dedicated, and truly cares about her clients and is not just handling another “case”. I highly recommend hiring her firm and I’m so grateful for her representation.
My only child passed away on August 1st, 2014, due to negligence of a calloused Physician that was not concerned with client-centered care or the boundaries of the Hippocratic Oath that he took as a Physician. Nevertheless, I could not sleep well knowing my son would never know the joys and the throes of life because of some impassive, inhumane person that should have never made it out of their residency. However, my faith in mankind was renewed like the eagles, when Yana Henriks from the Law Firm, McMurry Henriks, took on my case. Yana Henriks was not only extremely scholarly, but she was an astute observer and an expert orator that intelligently navigated my medical malpractice case like she was the mythical, Perry Mason. Yana Henriks knew that this was a traumatic experience for all involved, and she was sensitive to that fact, but she never lost sight of the significance this case was to my grandson. Yana kept me informed throughout the whole process, never insulting my intelligence or dumbing down lawyer speak; she explained. If I did not understand her methodology, she asked me to trust she explained her rationale. Finally, Yana Henriks has this innate knack for deciphering the opposing litigator’s strategies and making changes in her approach while keeping her core philosophies and values intact. Her legal representation was a faith restorer for me in humanity and the often, blinded legal system. If you are seeking legal assistance from medical malpractice, Yana Henriks is your only hope. I made a friend for life and now I can sleep easier knowing that my grandson is financially set, and I have resolution for my child’s untimely demise by the hands of the careless, witch doctor.
Mrs.Henriks is amazing and is the best! I’m very grateful & happy that me, my grandmother, and sister chose her to work on our case she gave us her all and went all the way out of her way to help us fight and I recommend that anybody looking for an hard working lawyer that is gonna go all out for you and wants nothing but the best for you to choose Mrs. Henriks because she definitely has your back to the fullest. She’s not just a lawyer she’s very caring and cares about you like as if you are family and your not going to get that everywhere because not all lawyers are passionate and very clear throughout the whole process. So again I very much recommend you choose her over anybody else!
