A FAMILY DEDICATED TO REPRESENTING THE SERIOUSLY INJURED
With more than 100 years of combined personal injury litigation experience and having acquired more than $100,000,000 for their clients in the past 5 years alone, Easton & Easton — comprised of Doug and his sons Brian, Matt, and Travis — only represents those that have been seriously injured or suffered the wrongful death of a loved one. As a family of attorneys, the Eastons have developed a pedigree of success for their clients, which has lead to the firm’s selection by the LA Times Reader’s Choice Poll as Orange County’s “Best Personal Injury Law Firm” each year since 2018.
Their individual accolades are just as notable. Doug, Brian, and Matt have all been recognized among The Best Lawyers in America® and received Martindale-Hubbell’s® highest AV Preeminent rating for ethics and legal ability; Doug and Brian have been selected to the National Trial Lawyers’ Top 100 Trial Lawyers and to Southern California’s Super Lawyers; Doug and Matt have both been selected as Premier 100 Trial Attorneys by the American Academy of Trial Attorneys; Matt and Travis have been selected to The National Trial Lawyers: Top 40 Under 40 and Southern California’s Super Lawyers Rising Stars; and Brian, Matt, and Travis have all earned lifetime certifications to the Multi-Million Dollar Advocates Forum® - The Top Trial Lawyers in America® (an honor given to less than 1 percent of attorneys). Additionally, Matt has been selected for five consecutive years as one of the Top 25 Up-and-Coming Attorneys in Orange County by Super Lawyers Rising Stars.
A TRADITION OF EXCEPTIONAL RESULTS
Helping those who have suffered tragedy through the negligence of another is a life-long familial passion for the Eastons. In a particularly difficult recent case, the Eastons acquired $20,000,000 for a client severely injured on the premises of the defendants. The defendants initially contended that they were not liable for any of the plaintiff’s damages and would not pay a penny for settlement, vowing to spend millions to defend the case. However, the Eastons spent more than 2 years investigating and litigating the matter until they proved that the defendants had significant liability for this tragic incident, leading to the remarkable $20 million dollar settlement. Due to the respect they have earned among their peers in the legal community while standing up for the rights of victims like this client, Easton & Easton has been listed by U.S. News & World Report as one of Southern California’s Best Law Firms once again this year.

Easton and Easton really care about your well being. They call constantly to see how I am doing after each appointment they set up. And call constantly to see how I am feeling with the treatment plans and if I’m not comfortable with something they have planned they adjust it, they really hear what I have to say. They do everything possible for me to feel comfortable with everything they do for me.
Alfredo Aguiler

I do not think I could have had as wonderful as an experience with any other law firm as I did with Easton & Easton. They are the most attentive, caring, and responsive lawyers I have ever met. I actually switched over from a previous lawyer who I was unsatisfied and not seeing results with. I do not think my case would have seen the attention or numbers I saw if I had stayed with my previous lawyer, and I wish I had been with Easton & Easton from the start. Even now, after the case has concluded, Easton & Easton still keeps in contact with me to check in on how I am after my case and how they can best support me now. It really feels like family at their office.

Doug, Matt, and Travis are my daughter’s champions. She suffered a significant brain injury while in the foster system, and was neglected by all who were charged with her care. Easton & Easton helped us make sure our daughter will be taken care of financially for the rest of her life. They were beyond professional, and they sought her settlement like she was a daughter/granddaughter to them. I will never be able to thank them for all they did. They found a way to settle a difficult case, were incredibly quick response to emails and questions, and calmed our fears/anxiety throughout the draining process of litigation. I can’t say enough nice things. They are beyond reproach.

Doug and Matt Easton were great and helped us through a difficult time. We would use them again if needed and would recommend them highly.
Eileen Thomas

Easton & Easton have handled my case with utmost care and attention. They have provided me with comfort and kept me updated on my case on every significant development. I think they have handled my case with utmost fairness and sincerity. I am so happy I found these good people. I would keep pestering them with questions and I would get honest replies as soon as possible. Their office staff is up to the mark. Their reach and expertise have helped me understand and evaluate the case for myself. I could not have been more content.

Doug Easton, the attorneys in his office, and his entire office staff at Easton & Easton are just the best. Excellent in every way. I have been their client, and have referred others to Easton & Easton who have been just as pleased. In my opinion, Easton & Easton, should be given a permanent place as a "Best Law Firm".
Marie Molnar
Personal Injury Litigation - Plaintiffs
I was incredibly lucky to get the referral to Easton & Easton. They are honest (yes, I’m saying that about lawyers!) and hard working. The comment made by the opposing side was that Matthew Easton’s work was the best he had ever seen. Given the high position this person held, that says a lot!

Travis Easton listens and can at any time finish a thought; he is in tune with you as a client and takes time to get to know you, your habits, and history. It's nice to have an attorney who has your best interests at heart.
Debby Lambert

I entrusted my case to Eason & Easton. I was drawn to their no-nonsense approach. The outcome and settlement were quick (less than 24 months) and very fair. I was extremely happy with this law firm and would recommend them highly.
Steve Aviles

I have actually used Easton & Easton twice now for two separate accidents and each time they were able to get me the maximum payout. I would definitely use them again, and have recommended other friends and family to use them as well.

Personal Injury Litigation - Plaintiffs
I have been working with Easton & Easton for two years. The entire Easton & Easton staff have treated my family with the utmost respect. My wife and I personally worked with Travis Easton over a two-year period regarding a horrible car accident that involved my wife and I and our two small children. Travis was a pro and handled our case with great understanding of the pain and tragedy our entire family endured. His response was amazing to all my calls, emails and messages. Travis, along with his staff at Easton & Easton, has changed our entire family's life for the better. I would only recommended his firm.

The team at Easton & Easton have integrity and are on top of what they do. I would like to especially thank Travis Easton and Michelle. They have been very helpful, and I want to thank them for getting the treatment I need to get better after my car accident. I'm very grateful, and may God continue to bless the company!
Ruth Morrison

Easton & Easton attorneys are very professional and competent. They really know their areas of expertise, personal injury and medical malpractice. They were understanding and had a great deal of empathy for me as a client. Their concern for me was quite evident from the manner in which I was treated by not only the attorneys, but by the whole office staff. Communication was the best. I was never "left in the dark" or "wondering" what was going on in my case. As an attorney, I know the value of Client Communications. The Easton law firm is the "BEST". I have known Doug Easton for a number of years. I have worked with Doug Easton as an attorney, and most recently as his client. I would highly recommend the Easton law firm and would retain them again if the need arise. I cannot say enough good things about Doug Easton, his law firm, and office staff.

I had outstanding care and service from the first call to the last email and signature. Matt is the consummate professional with outstanding personal care and excellent knowledge of his craft. The rest of the Easton & Easton team, especially Michelle who did her very best to help a stressed-out client navigate what could have been total chaos, were exceptional in everything they did. Not only would I recommend Easton & Easton to friends, but I would also trust them to care for any family member's needs with total confidence. Thanks to all at Easton & Easton for your help, compassion and care.

Easton & Easton represented me in a personal injury case. I was injured when my motorcycle was struck by a motorist, landing me first in the hospital for a week and then later in rehab for several more weeks. Mathew Easton kept me informed as my case progressed, saw to it that I didn’t pay any medical bills, was a welcome sounding board for my questions, and ultimately won an award that was far larger than I thought possible. From start to finish I was in good hands, allowing me to work on my recovery without worrying about money.

Travis at Easton & Easton was great to work with! He is very kind and fair. He handled everything for me after my accident!
Samantha Epperley

Travis Easton and his staff at Easton & Easton assisted me with getting through a terrible time in my life. I greatly appreciate their professionalism, knowledge and patience. Having a great and honest law firm representing you when you can't do it yourself is priceless. I am extremely grateful for their service.

I had a difficult case and Easton & Easton handled it with professionalism and aggressiveness. I was happy with the outcome. I do highly recommend them if you need someone on your side for a plaintiff.
Kathy Morgan

Easton & Easton handled my case with professionalism and constantly kept me informed on its progress. I was awarded the maximum amount on of both insurance policies and have recommended the firm to several injured parties. I pray I will never be injured again, but if I am I will definitely go to Easton & Easton to handle my case.
