Michael Kruppe has 39 years of experience in litigating and trying cases. Having previously built an insurance defense firm from the ground up, he is skilled in defending and protecting his clients’ interests in jury trials while maintaining an eye on reining in expenses allowing a productive litigation process. He has successfully tried to verdict substantial risk catastrophic, death and personal injury cases in venues throughout California.

Coupled with a multi-year stint as general counsel for an aerospace corporation, his diverse  xperience allows him to communicate with clients to understand their needs and goals.  That client-side work also allows Mike to efficiently manage the risks presented to his clients from prelitigation through verdict. Mike’s experience and reputation for integrity allows him to avoid the sort of antagonistic relationship with opposing counsel that can lead to counterproductive litigation delay and results.

A demonstrated ability to recognize favorable times to divert cases toward ADR, when doing so makes more sense for the client, has earmarked his litigation career during which he has litigated well over 1300 cases for large carriers, multinational corporations and transportation titans in trucking and rental car industries.
