Michael Molland

Elder Law Trial Attorney

Over the past twenty-five years, Michael Molland has taken over forty cases to trial as a partner at two of America’s largest corporate law firms.

Michael tried his first case in 1986. Since then, he has amassed over 150 weeks of jury trial experience. He has been lead trial counsel in over forty trials, going to final verdict in twenty. Nineteen of these representations have resulted in verdicts in favor of his clients, and those clients have recovered judgments or settlements after trial in the tens of millions of dollars.

In 1997, Michael and family moved their home to Sonoma County. Fifteen years later, his trial work followed. In March of 2013, Michael relocated his practice from a skyscraper above One Market Street in San Francisco to Petaluma.

Martindale, a national company that rates attorneys based on the confidential review of their peers, ranks Michael at its highest rating: “A/V,” which is only granted to 5 percent of all lawyers. Michael has also been recognized as a “Super Lawyer” by peers in Northern California for his work in mass tort litigation.
