Equipped with deep litigation experience, Alexis dedicates her craft to the fight for justice in personal injury and employment cases.

Alexis takes pride in giving her clients light and hope in some of their darkest days. 


Combining discerning focus with heart and soul, Alexis gives each case the thoughtful attention it deserves. She applies unparalleled performance to attain justice for those who have been wronged, and her results speak for themselves. For example, Alexis’s first jury trial resulted in a seven-figure verdict after she argued for and obtained substantial punitive damages. Since then, Alexis has continued to try cases and advocate for her clients in the courtroom.
 
Alexis is committed to giving back to the community, and she highly values building relationships. Over the years, she has been a dedicated member of CAOC, Consumer Attorneys Association of Los Angeles (CAALA), and the American Association for Justice (AAJ).

Born in Los Angeles and raised in Northern California, Alexis graduated with Honors from UCLA with a B.A. in Global Studies, and then spent the following two years living in Tel Aviv, Israel and working in business consulting. She moved on to earn her J.D. at Loyola Law School where she served as the President of the Consumer Law Society and President of the Jewish Law Students Association. Upon graduating from Loyola Law School, Alexis was selected by her peers, professors, and deans as the recipient of the distinguished Alumni Association Award. Additionally, Alexis is a proud alumna of the Byrne Trial Advocacy Team, a nationally ranked competitive trial team through which she received intensive, individualized training in all aspects of trial work. 

As a thought leader in the legal field, Alexis is a sought-after speaker and author.  She has been a featured speaker and moderator at numerous legal conferences and events across the state, and her written work has been published in widely circulated legal publications, including CAALA’s Advocate Magazine.
