About the attorney
Michael S. Trabish
Attorney at law, Santa Monica, California
For more than 45 years, Michael S. Trabish has represented people and businesses across Santa Monica and Los Angeles County. That span covers thousands of insurance negotiations, court appearances and settlement conferences, and it shows in how quickly a case can be read for what it is actually worth.
His practice covers auto and motorcycle accidents, personal injury and premises liability, real estate disputes and business litigation. It is a deliberately broad civil practice, because the problems clients bring rarely arrive in a single neat category.
Every case is unique, and every client works directly with Michael. There is no intake department, no handoff to a junior associate you have never met, and no client who has to guess who is handling their file.
Bar admission details and professional affiliations should be confirmed by the firm before publication so this page reflects current credentials exactly.
Why 45 years matters
Insurers know the difference
Adjusters track which attorneys will actually file and try a case. That history affects the first offer and every one after it.
Valuation comes from repetition
Knowing what a case is worth in this county, in front of these courts, is a matter of having seen the same injuries and disputes resolve many times.
Fewer surprises
Decades of civil practice means the procedural traps, the deadlines and the defense tactics are familiar rather than new.
