KJT Law Group, a Glendale-based law firm specializing in personal injury, workers' compensation, employment law, and habitability matters, has announced that four of its attorneys have been named to the 2027 Southern California Super Lawyers and Rising Stars lists. The recognition underscores the firm's commitment to providing dedicated legal representation in these practice areas.
Caspar Jivalagian, a founding partner who focuses on workers' compensation, catastrophic injury, and premises liability cases, and Aaron Turchin, an attorney with over two decades of trial experience in personal injury and workers' comp matters, were both named to the 2027 Southern California Super Lawyers list in the personal injury, plaintiff practice area. This marks Jivalagian's first selection to the Super Lawyers list, while Turchin has been selected three times. Their inclusion places them among the top 5% of attorneys in the state, a distinction that reflects their professional achievements and peer recognition.
Additionally, Tro Semerjian, an attorney in the firm's litigation department who represents clients in habitability and personal injury matters, and Levon S. Yepremian, who represents employees in discrimination, retaliation, and wage and hour disputes, were named to the 2027 Southern California Rising Stars list. Semerjian received this honor for the first time, while Yepremian has now been selected five times. The Rising Stars list recognizes attorneys who are either 40 years old or younger or have practiced for 10 years or less, and it represents the top 2.5% of attorneys in the state.
The selection process for both lists is rigorous and independent. It begins with peer nominations and independent research across 12 indicators of professional achievement, followed by a peer review by practice area. Candidates are then rated by a panel of their peers, and final selections are based on point totals within each firm-size category. Importantly, selection cannot be purchased, and attorneys are not required to buy any products to be included. Super Lawyers verifies each candidate's standing with their local licensing authority to ensure no outstanding disciplinary matters.
This recognition is significant for KJT Law Group and its clients. Being named to these lists provides independent, third-party validation of the attorneys' skills and standing among their peers. For prospective clients, this can be a crucial factor when evaluating legal representation, as it signals a high level of competence and professionalism. In the competitive legal landscape of Southern California, such recognition can help the firm stand out and reassure clients that they are in capable hands.
The firm's attorneys have a track record of handling complex cases, from catastrophic injuries to workplace discrimination. Their inclusion in these lists not only honors their individual achievements but also highlights the firm's overall strength in personal injury and employment law. As the legal industry continues to evolve, recognitions like these serve as a benchmark for quality and can influence client decisions. KJT Law Group's attorneys are dedicated to advocating for their clients, and this acknowledgment underscores their commitment to excellence.
