BackgroundEducation & HonorsAssociations

Jang Kang is a member of the firm’s litigation group. His practice focuses on insurance defense, personal injury, construction, and business matters. He represents companies and clients in a wide range of matters in state and federal court.

Jang received his B.A. from the University of California, Santa Barbara before graduating with his J.D. from the William S. Boyd School of Law at the University of Nevada Las Vegas.

Here are just a few of Jang’s notable accomplishments:

  • Won summary judgment on behalf of a trampoline park facility after an eleven-year-old boy attending a birthday party at the park suffered a broken leg and injured knee. Though the parents of the boy never signed the waiver of liability the facility required before granting entry, we argued that the injured child was old enough to understand and assume the inherent risk of injury and showed that our client did not increase the risk of injury beyond the risks inherently involved with the activity.
  • Won summary adjudication on behalf of a leading technology company in a worker’s compensation subrogation action. Summary adjudication for defense and indemnification was based solely on allegations contained in the complaint though no evidence of any wrongdoing existed.
  • University of Nevada, Las Vegas, William S. Boyd School of Law, 2009, JD
  • University of California, Santa Barbara,1999, BA
  • Orange County Bar Association

  • Negotiated a successful $675,000 settlement in which our client only had to pay $175,000 out of pocket in a wrongful death/survival action arising out of a motor vehicle versus pedestrian accident where decedent was survived by spouse and adult children. The plaintiff originally sought $1.5 million.
