About Robert Simon
Robert T. Simon is a nationally recognized trial attorney who has dedicated his career to fighting for the rights of injury victims across California. As co-founder of The Simon Law Group, he has built a reputation for taking the cases other firms reject - the unwinnable disputes, the low-ball settlement offers, and the complex catastrophic injuries - and turning them into record-breaking victories.
With over two decades of experience, Robert has recovered more than $600 Million in verdicts and settlements for his clients. His approach is fundamentally different: while most attorneys look for a quick settlement, Robert prepares every case for trial from day one. This trial-first philosophy forces insurance companies to offer fair compensation or face the consequences in court.
Robert's peers have recognized his exceptional advocacy. He has been named Trial Lawyer of the Year by both the Consumer Attorneys of California (CAOC) and the Consumer Attorneys of San Diego (CASD). He served as President of the Los Angeles Trial Lawyers' Charities (LATLC) and sits on the boards of both CAALA and CAOC.
Beyond the courtroom, Robert is a legal innovator. He pioneered The Trial Lab, a cutting-edge facility where cases are focus-grouped, mock-tried, and analyzed using behavioral science before reaching a jury. He co-founded Justice HQ, a premier collaborative network bringing together the nation's top trial lawyers to share resources and strategies.

Practice Areas
Robert Simon focuses exclusively on high-stakes personal injury and wrongful death litigation. Each case receives the full weight of his trial experience, expert network, and commitment to maximum recovery.
Catastrophic Brain & Spinal Cord Injuries
Robert focuses on the invisible injury. Many firms overlook subtle signs of Traumatic Brain Injury that don't show on a standard CT scan. Robert collaborates with world-renowned neurologists and bio-mechanical engineers to prove the long-term cognitive, physical, and emotional impact of catastrophic neurological damage.
High-Velocity Motor Vehicle Collisions
California's freeway systems are among the most complex and dangerous in the nation. Robert treats every motor vehicle accident as a potential trial from day one, countering the algorithms insurance companies use to devalue claims. His team reconstructs the physics to establish clear liability.
Traumatic Brain Injury Advocacy
A brain injury is an invisible catastrophe. Many victims appear physically unharmed while their cognitive functions have been fundamentally altered. Robert works with neurologists, neuropsychologists, and SPECT scan experts to create a compelling visual map of the injury that juries can understand.
Pedestrian & Vulnerable Road User Accidents
California's streets are hotspots for pedestrian and bicycle accidents. Robert understands the unique vulnerability of unprotected travelers and holds negligent drivers, rideshare companies, and municipalities accountable for the devastating toll these accidents impose.
Wrongful Death Litigation
The most heartbreaking cases are those where a family member doesn't come home. Wrongful death litigation demands a relentless advocate unafraid to pursue maximum damages. Robert provides a compassionate but aggressive shield for grieving families.
Rideshare & Commercial Vehicle Accidents
As Uber, Lyft, and delivery services transform California's roads, accident liability grows increasingly complex. Robert navigates the layered insurance policies, corporate defendants, and regulatory frameworks involved in rideshare and commercial vehicle injury cases.
Innovation - Justice HQ & The Trial Lab
Robert Simon's edge in the courtroom comes from his mastery of legal technology and behavioral science. He co-founded Justice HQ, a premier collaborative hub for trial lawyers that pools resources, expert witnesses, and litigation data from across the United States. When you hire Robert, you gain access to a national infrastructure of trial expertise.
Before any case reaches court, Robert deploys The Trial Lab, a state-of-the-art facility where cases are focus-grouped, mock-tried, and psychologically analyzed. Real juries, matched to the demographics of the California county where your case will be heard, deliberate on the evidence. This road testing reveals which arguments resonate and which fall flat, giving Robert an unmatched strategic advantage.
This commitment to preparation and innovation is why insurance companies consistently settle for maximum value when facing Robert Simon. They know he doesn't just talk about trial - he has the data, the team, and the track record to win.
