Gary C. Weisberg

Mr. Weisberg is a partner of the firm. Since joining the firm in 1987, his practice has emphasized valuation disputes and condemnation matters. He graduated from the University of California at Irvine (B.A., magna cum laude, 1982) and received his law degree from Hastings College of Law, University of California (J.D., 1987).

Over the last several years, Mr. Weisberg has handled a number of condemnation matters on behalf of private land and business owners against the State Department of Transportation. Mr. Weisberg has obtained several jury verdicts and settlements in excess of one million dollars. Some of Mr. Weisberg's more significant cases include State v. Northwest Hotel Corporation, which resulted in one of the largest cash settlements ($12.5 million) for any property owner along the I-5 freeway widening project; and Atchison Topeka & Santa Fe v. Lever Brothers, which resulted in a jury verdict that was nearly $10 million more than the condemning agency's initial offer.

Mr. Weisberg was instrumental in securing favorable appellate court decisions on behalf of his clients in Clayton v. Superior Court (1998) 67 Cal.App.4th 28 and Kunec v. Brea Redevelopment Agency (1997) 55 Cal.App.4th 511.
