History
The history of Rose, Klein & Marias began in 1936, when attorney Victor C. Rose began practicing law in Los Angeles. Four years later, he was joined by Alfred M. Klein. In 1946, Eugene Marias joined the team. In the decades since, the firm has expanded to include dozens of experienced lawyers. We now have ten locations, conveniently serving Southern California. Although we have grown, our dedication to our clients hasn't changed. We take pride in the fact that our attorneys have spearheaded many of the types of cases we handle. In 1975, we were the first law office in California to bring a lawsuit against asbestos manufacturers for injuries caused by their products. We also pioneered NFL concussion litigation in both the workers' compensation and civil personal injury fields. Throughout the years, we have broken ground in countless practice areas and strive to find creative solutions to continue our tradition of innovation and passionate advocacy in representing the injured.
