Wilshire Law Firm Leads California’s 2025 TopVerdict Settlement Rankings in Three Practice Areas

Wilshire Law Firm won more “Top 100 Personal Injury Settlements in California in 2025” than any other law firm, as reported by TopVerdict.com. Wilshire Law Firm appears on 31 of the 163 settlements listed across the four pages of that ranking, and the next-highest firm, The Law Offices of Arash Khorsandi, appears on 14.

Wilshire Law Firm’s highest personal injury placement on the 2025 list is rank 4, a $36,000,000 settlement in D.R. v. John Doe, et al., credited to Colin M. Jones, Jesus J. Torres, and Ryan Scott Cowan.

The largest personal injury settlement on TopVerdict’s 2025 California list, a $4 billion settlement in Jane Roe 390 A.U., et al. v. County of Los Angeles, is credited to other firms.

Wilshire Law Firm won more “Top 100 Labor & Employment Settlements in California in 2025” than any other law firm, as reported by TopVerdict.com. Wilshire Law Firm appears on 11 of the 96 settlements listed on that ranking, and the next-highest firms, Employment Rights Lawyers and Lyon Law, appear on 8 each. Source: TopVerdict’s 2025 Top 100 Labor & Employment Settlements in California.

Wilshire Law Firm’s most-listed labor and employment attorney on the 2025 ranking is John G. Yslas, who is named on 4 of the firm’s 11 listings.

A note on how the 11 were counted. Three of Wilshire Law Firm’s 11 labor and employment listings are co-counsel settlements that TopVerdict also credits to another firm. TopVerdict credits every firm named on a settlement, and this article follows that convention. Counted by sole-counsel entries only, Wilshire Law Firm has 8 listings, tied with Lyon Law PC.

The labor and employment ranking is shorter than the other two because TopVerdict excludes smaller settlements from it. The list states: “Settlements below $100,000 have not been included to the list.” These figures are settlements, not verdicts. Prior results do not predict the outcome of any future case.

Wilshire Law Firm won more “Top 100 Motor Vehicle Accident Settlements in California in 2025” than any other law firm, as reported by TopVerdict.com. Wilshire Law Firm appears on 43 of the 157 settlements listed across the four pages of that ranking, and the next-highest firms, Yerushalmi Law Firm and The Law Offices of Arash Khorsandi, appear on 13 each.

The motor vehicle ranking is where Wilshire Law Firm’s margin is widest. With 43 listed settlements against 13 for the next firm, Wilshire Law Firm appears more than three times as often as any other firm on that list.

Wilshire Law Firm’s highest motor vehicle placement is rank 2. That entry is the same $36,000,000 settlement in D.R. v. John Doe, et al. that holds rank 4 on the personal injury list, because TopVerdict lists a motor vehicle settlement on both boards. These figures are settlements, not verdicts. Prior results do not predict the outcome of any future case.

TopVerdict.com ranks individual settlements by dollar amount within a state, a year, and a case category. It does not rank law firms. A firm’s count on any TopVerdict ranking is the number of listed settlements that name the firm, which is how the figures in this article were produced.

Each 2025 California ranking is published across four pages, and reading only one page shows only part of the list:

• Top 10 covers ranks 1 through 10.
• Top 20 covers ranks 11 through 20.
• Top 50 covers ranks 21 through 50.
• Top 100 covers ranks 51 through 100.

Tied settlement amounts share a single rank number, so a ranking that ends at rank 100 can hold well over 100 settlements. When co-counsel from more than one firm resolved a case, TopVerdict credits every firm named on the entry, and this article counts co-counsel entries the same way.

The labor and employment ranking stops short of 100 rank positions because TopVerdict excludes settlements under $100,000 from that list. TopVerdict also notes on its pages that it cannot guarantee its lists are complete, so a firm may have 2025 settlements that never appeared on any list.

Colin M. Jones, Senior Partner and Chair of Wilshire Law Firm’s Personal Injury Litigation Department, is named on 18 of the 163 settlements on TopVerdict’s 2025 California Top 100 Personal Injury Settlements list, more than any other attorney on that list.

On TopVerdict’s 2025 California Top 100 Motor Vehicle Accident Settlements list, Colin M. Jones is named on 26 of the 157 settlements. That is exactly double the next attorney on the list, David Yerushalmi, who is named on 13.

The firm’s highest-ranked 2025 settlement, the $36,000,000 result in D.R. v. John Doe, et al., credits Colin M. Jones, Jesus J. Torres, and Ryan Scott Cowan.

On the labor and employment side, John G. Yslas, Senior Partner and Chair of the Employment Wage & Hour Class Action Department, is Wilshire Law Firm’s most-listed attorney, with 4 of the firm’s 11 listings.

More of the firm’s results, across practice areas and years, are on the Wilshire Law Firm settlements and verdicts page.

TopVerdict’s rankings measure one thing: the number and size of reported settlements that cleared a dollar threshold in one state during one year. A firm that appears often on those lists has resolved many cases at meaningful values, and recently.

The rankings do not measure how a firm communicates with clients, how long its cases take, how it handles smaller cases, or whether it has handled cases like yours. They also depend on what TopVerdict was able to collect, so a strong firm may be underrepresented.

A settlement amount reflects the injuries, the insurance available, the evidence, and the defendant in that case. A firm’s appearance on a 2025 list says nothing about what your case is worth.

When you compare firms, it may help to ask who would handle your case day to day, how often you can expect updates, how the firm decides when to settle and when to try a case, and what its fee agreement says. This article is a general overview of one set of rankings, not legal advice.

The counts in this article were produced by reading every entry on all twelve TopVerdict source pages for the three categories, four pages per category, and tallying each firm named, including co-counsel credits, on September 3, 2026. The tallies were checked by three independent recounts.

TopVerdict may change its lists after that date. The numbers here reflect the pages as published when they were counted, and each claim links to the live source page.
