We Stand for Justice
Martin Luther King, Jr. wrote, “Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”
More than anything else, Chain | Cohn | Clark’s personal injury and workers’ compensation practice is motivated by our desire to seek justice for those injured or killed through the negligence of other people, businesses, or institutions.
When you hire one of our lawyers, the whole Chain | Cohn | Clark team backs your case because we have a singular goal—holding wrongdoers accountable for their actions.
Meet the Attorneys
Two themes run throughout the award-winning* “Meet the Attorneys” video series: first, our roots in the Bakersfield community, and second, our enduring desire to help people. “Of Counsel” attorney David Cohn, all three of Chain | Cohn | Clark’s partners, and most of our associates are natives of Bakersfield or Kern County, and all of them are deeply involved in the local community.
For example:
- Managing Partner Matt Clark is a graduate of Garces Memorial High School. He serves the community as a board member for the Kern County chapter of Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD).
- Associate James Yoro, another graduate of Garces Memorial, serves as Chairman of the Board of Directors for Greater Bakersfield Legal Assistance. This organization provides legal help to the elderly and low-income residents of Kern County.
- Partner Beatriz Trejo, a graduate of Highland High School and CSU Bakersfield, saw a legal career as a way to serve others through her profession. She’s involved in the Kern County Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and other local organizations.
Switching Sides
More than one Chain | Cohn | Clark attorney worked on the flip side of personal injury law—helping insurance companies defend themselves against claims.
Associate Chris Hagan eventually grew disenchanted with insurance work. He’d known Managing Partner Matt Clark for years and respected his work on the plaintiff side. When Matt asked him to join Chain | Cohn | Clark, Chris jumped at the opportunity to help people receive fair compensation for their injuries.
