Stand Up For Your Right

When you’ve been harmed by medical malpractice, government, or big industry, we advocate for your most fundamental rights.

Who We Are

Based in San Diego, CA, JRE Law Firm has over 20 years of civil litigation experience, specializing in medical malpractice, serious injury, products liability, employment litigation, and civil rights. We are licensed to practice in all California State Courts as well as the United States Southern and Eastern District Courts of California.

Prior to founding JRE LAW FIRM, Jonathan Ehtessabian was a partner at Neil Dymott’s San Diego office where he trained under some of the top medical malpractice defense lawyers in the state. He has worked up hundreds of case through resolution, including several high-damages jury trials. He was admitted to the state bar in 2006 and obtained a 12-0 verdict in his first civil jury trial as first chair in 2008.

Mr. Ehtessabian has both the skill to fairly resolve your case and the experience to hold even the toughest corporate defendants accountable. In addition to his litigation practice, Mr. Ehtessabian has consistently provided pro bono services, including representation of political asylees and unaccompanied children with the Casa Cornelia Legal Aid Center, community development with the Grupo Activo de Los Pargos, and environmental legislation with the San Diego Surfrider Foundation.

“After spending more than a decade defending doctors in medical malpractice cases, I have the skill, experience, and resolve to hold the institutional power accountable.”

Human Values Matter

“I am grateful to do this work, to have won significant jury trials, and obtained substantial settlements for clients that have made appreciable differences in their quality of life. I take honor in spending the time, energy, and resources necessary to advocate for those harmed by systemic injustice because I understand that your story matters. We must always strive to do right and never stand down and allow someone to suffer harm at the hands of another. When human values conflict with corporate values, we must always choose human values.”
