Company Profile

Company Overview

On the surface, it can be difficult to tell one law firm from another. Once you get closer, however, you find that they have different philosophies, different approaches to the practice of law and different levels of commitment to clients. In fact, the distinctions can be extraordinary.

Unless you have been a client of Ervin Cohen & Jessup LLP, you cannot fully appreciate what sets us apart from other law firms.

Philosophy of Service:

At ECJ, we believe that just as important as what we do is how we do it. Since 1953, our attorneys have practiced law with:

• A commitment to excellence. Our lawyers bring energy, dedication and professional integrity to their practices.
They are widely respected for their expertise in varied fields and their creative approaches to problem-solving for clients.

• A practical, can-do approach. Our lawyers approach client issues with a good dose of pragmatism and an eye toward the bottom line. They look for solutions that work in practice, not just theory-solutions that produce results quickly and cost-effectively or that avoid problems altogether.

• A devotion to client service. Good service is in the eye of the beholder, of course, but each lawyer at our firm prides him or herself on the strong personal relationships they build with clients. Because of our firm's structure, clients receive partner-level attention and a high level of responsiveness.

As a result, ECJ has become one of the premier law firms in Southern California.
