Providing Resources and Support to Trial Lawyers for over 70 years!
About us
The San Francisco Trial Lawyers Association (SFTLA) is a 501(c)(3) charitable organization that provides a multitude of benefits and services to it’s over 860 members, including plaintiffs attorneys, defense attorneys, law students, and law office supporting staff. For over fifty years SFTLA has served the needs of the plaintiff’s bar. Our main goal is to provide continuing legal education to attorneys, but we also offer everything from a group health plan to fun networking events. Catering mostly to the small firm, SFTLA finds ways to help practitioners with the business of running a firm, working especially hard to bring together both sides of the aisle, members of the Bench, and local legislators, so that members can have a greater impact on the legal community. SFTLA’s various committees work hard to raise support for the many diverse groups that make up the trial lawyer community. The Women's Caucus hosts many events that highlight issues specifically effecting female trial attorneys. The Community Involvement Committee sponsors five to six community projects in the San Francisco area annually, and is always looking for more ways to reach out to the community. Other committees, like the Carlene Caldwell Scholarship Committee, help make the dreams of future lawyers a reality, not only by giving scholarship monies, but also by hosting an annual Mock Trial, where law students can test their skills in front of a panel of true experts--trial attorneys.

What a privilege to spend Friday evening at the San Francisco Trial Lawyers Association's Annual Judges Award Gala and Dinner at The Westin St. Francis. There is something special about a room that brings together a community that is dedicated to help resolve the disputes wherever they can. Every conversation reminded me why this work matters. Behind every case — is a person looking for fairness, dignity, and a way forward and the people in this room have been that guiding light for countless they’ve helped along the way. I was especially honored to be in the company of so many respected judges, and proud to represent JAMS alongside my wonderful colleagues Hon. Lynn O'Malley Taylor(Ret.), Hon. Mary E. Wiss (Ret.), Hon. Terence Bruiniers (Ret.), April Madison-Ramsey, Matt White, and Jerry Spolter and Jasleen Singh. Great to make new friends! Thank you to SFTLA for an inspiring evening celebrating the judiciary and the shared commitment to justice in our community, and congratulations to this year's honorees! #JAMS #SFTLA #Mediation #ADR #DisputeResolution #Judiciary #SanFrancisco #Gratitude

Nicholas Le and I from Wingman Law (YC F26) spent the evening celebrating exemplary members of the judiciary at the San Francisco Trial Lawyers Association Judges Gala 2026. It was a pleasure meeting Hon. Christine Van Aken and other outstanding trial attorneys around the city. We are inspired by their commitment to justice and reminded of the responsibility we carry in our own work, standing up for people whose lives have been disrupted by an injury.

Women supporting women in law is not just a powerful idea, it is a meaningful investment in the future of trial advocacy. SFTLA's Women's Trial College wrapped up this fall, and we couldn't be happier with the success of this year's weekend event and the impact of creating space for women in trial law to learn from and support one another 💜 We once again want to thank our mentors Megan Burns, Vanessa Deniston, Elinor Leary, Andje Morovich Medina, Christa Haggai Ramey, and Elise Sanguinetti Our sponsors Sage Settlement Consulting and Persuasive Presentations Trial Technology Sandra Ribera for initially creating this phenomenal event and continuing to be the moderator every year And finally, all of WTC'S students for helping make this event possible! A stronger generation of women trial lawyers begins with those willing to share the lessons that brought them here, and we hope to continue this annual program 🤠 #LegalIndustry #TrialLawyers #WomenInLaw #WomenLawyers #LegalProfession #Mentorship #WomenSupportingWomen #LegalCommunity
