Reuben Ginsburg is the firm’s leading voice on appellate matters, offering a perspective shaped by more than two decades working inside the California Court of Appeal. A State Bar of California certified appellate specialist, he advises on post-trial strategy in cases where the legal terrain is complex, and the margin for error is narrow.

During his tenure as a Senior Appellate Court Attorney, Reuben contributed to hundreds of opinions— over 115 of them published—across a broad range of civil and criminal issues. That rare behind-thebench experience gives him a unique ability to anticipate judicial reasoning and craft arguments that resonate.

In private practice, Reuben has handled both trial and appellate work, earning a reputation for his ability to dissect nuanced legal questions and structure post-trial strategies with discipline and depth. His command of procedure and substance makes him an invaluable asset to clients and colleagues alike when outcomes hinge on the strength of the record and the clarity of the law.

Beyond the courtroom, Reuben is a thought leader. He serves as an advisor to the Executive Committee of the California Lawyers Association Litigation Section, chairs its Jury Instructions Committee, and is a member of the CLA’s Governmental Affairs and Amicus Committees. His past leadership includes terms as chair of the State Bar Litigation Section and managing editor of Litigation Update, the section’s monthly online publication.
