John Gomez
Thirty-two years, and the only Yale law degree on the site. His firm's address of record is shared with another listing on this page — Brian Mason is still registered at Gomez Trial Attorneys while trading under his own firm's name.
The bar record
We read John Gomez in the State Bar of California’s licensee search. The practice-area and language rows are the lawyer’s own; the Bar prints above them that it does not verify their accuracy and makes no warranties about competence.
California states plainly what it hides — and it is not this. Above every status history the Bar warns that some administrative suspensions are removed from display under its own removal policy, and it defines those as non-disciplinary: unpaid fees, missed education. Disciplinary matters are not covered by that policy, and one listing on this page proves the field works — two suspensions, two case numbers and five linked court documents, still on display years later. So a clean status history here means more than a clean one in Washington. It still does not mean the Bar has told us everything.
What the record shows
His register address, 755 Front Street, is also the address the State Bar holds for Brian Mason, whose own site trades as The Mason Firm from a different building. Two of our thirteen San Diego listings share one register address because one of them has not updated it.Verified
His page sets out the three-phase coverage model in an actual table, with the phase, the driver status and the coverage in separate columns. It is the clearest presentation of it in this batch, and one of two here that cites the 2014 statute by number.Verified
It also addresses two things almost nobody else does: rideshare driver assault claims, and airport pickup zones as a distinct liability setting. Only one other listing on this site builds out assault as a claim type.Verified
