LYTEL & LYTEL, LLP is a nationally ranked litigation firm committed to providing its clients with superior service and winning. The principals of the firm are experienced trial attorneys who collectively have over 30 years experience defending corporations, insurance companies & their business clients, and individuals in complex legal matters throughout California. 

Civil litigation on behalf of the sophisticated client requires more than a thorough knowledge of the substantive and procedural law. The evaluation of liability, disputes, claims and damage issues requires knowledge gained from trying lawsuits. Our attorneys have successes in many cases for local and national clients in many different fields, including professional liability, transportation law, premises liability, general negligence and litigation advocacy for individuals and businesses. We offer complimentary initial consultations.

We take pride in our close client relationships and this trust enables us to have a genuine understanding of the best approach to meet a client's objective. Representation of our clients in civil litigation matters always begin with our civil litigation attorneys independently investigating and assessing our client’s claims, complaints and/or defenses.  We also evaluate our client's rights, privileges, duties, reservations and obligations, and give our client’s our honest opinion of chances of successful litigation based on the applicable law. We have earned a strong reputation for quality representation at all stages of civil litigation: negotiations, alternative dispute resolution, trial and appeal. We are large enough to marshal the resources for high-stakes lawsuits, yet we are committed to close, personal attention to each client.

The philosophy of the firm has always been to aggressively defend its clients and negotiate from a position of strength, knowing that the opposing side will view the option of trying the case as an unwelcome alternative to settlement. The firm is able to provide the individualized, superior service required by our clients in all types of insurance and business lawsuits.

LYTEL & LYTEL, LLP’s general liability litigation practice group has extensive experience with legal and business issues including personal injury, property damage, premises liability and economic loss. Our attorneys have represented large national insurance and commercial transportation companies in multimillion dollar claims.  Our civil litigation approach is
comprehensive, aggressive and results-driven:
 


Professional Conduct (PC) Investigation & Professional Liability Matters: Diana Lytel leads the Professional Conduct & Professional Liability defense group for investigation matters ranging from the CFA Institute, CFP Board, California Department of Business Oversight (DBO) to the California Bureau of Real Estate (BRE), along with other professional license/designation matters. 

Retail & Premises Liability
We have defended a multitude of premises liability cases and have experience with clients ranging from retail chains, property owners to small business owners. Our attorneys have specialized knowledge of the standards of care that are unique to the retail business industry and are well-versed in evaluating each case at its inception to formulate the best strategy for a successful outcome.

Individual & Business Litigation
As skilled litigators with years of experience in civil courts, we are dedicated to helping clients obtain a successful resolution to disputes whether it is business legal claims or individual disputes, such as temporary restraining order (stalking, harassment), cease and desist order, a harassment issue, defamation of character claims (libel or slander), trespassing, privacy rights, etc.

Commercial Transportation
Diana Lytel heads up the firm's commercial trucking practice group. Ms. Lytel has handled multi-million dollar defense cases for some of the largest national carriers in the country. She has attended several day sessions in which she was professionally educated in much the same way as novice truck drivers. Ms. Lytel was taught driver log book procedures, trailer brakes adjustments and duals, hook up and drop trailers, and taught to drive on closed courses, including backing and parking. She understands the critical facts in trucking cases and has used some of the premier experts to win trials or resolve cases with a favorable outcome.
