Leon Bassil

About Leon

Leon started his law career on the corporate side, working as a workers’ compensation defense attorney for insurance companies and businesses. Driven by a profound sense of justice, he pivoted his path after two years, redirecting his focus solely towards championing the rights of plaintiffs. “I wanted to switch over to the plaintiff’s side to help people seek justice and make real changes in their lives,” Leon said. “When I represent injury victims, I take up their fight as if it is my very own.” Leon’s experience as a former defense attorney gives him valuable insights into the strategies of his opponents in personal injury cases, which is a powerful advantage for his clients. As an attorney who is committed to providing personalized representation, Leon makes it a point to listen to his clients’ concerns and address his needs in the best way he can. Leon was born in Lebanon and moved to the U.S. with his family at the age of 9. He earned his bachelor’s degree in political science from the University of California, Irvine. He later attended law school on a part-time basis while launching multiple business ventures with his peers. Leon earned his juris doctorate (J.D.) degree from Pacific Coast University School of Law. Now, Leon is licensed to practice law in California, speaking both English and Arabic.
