The Ponist Law Group, P.C. was founded with the goal of providing superior representation of clients in all aspects of real estate, construction and business litigation matters, including financial elder abuse and government enforcement actions (white collar defense). The firm’s legal knowledge and trial expertise allows the firm to achieve better settlements before trial and better results at trial when settlement is not possible. We have substantial experience in matters involving a broad range of real estate and business disputes, including financial elder abuse and government enforcement actions (white collar defense) matters. As experts in these areas and having successfully handled hundreds such matters, we frequently provide legal education seminars to other members of the bar and write scholarly articles on these matters. As a former prosecutor and as experienced trial attorneys, we bring significant litigation and trial experience to our representation of clients to achieve better results. We have tried numerous cases to verdict and judgment with a history of trial success and winning results. We have recovered over $115 million in real estate and construction defect damages for clients while also successfully defending clients against similar claims. In recognition of our accomplishments, we have been conferred the prestigious “Super Lawyer” award, a distinction bestowed upon less than 5% of attorneys, for the past eight years (2011-present). Mr. Ponist is also a fellow of the Litigation Counsel of America, a trial lawyer honorary society whose membership is limited to less than one-half of 1% percent of North American lawyers, judges and scholars. He has also been recognized as one of the Best of the Bar by the San Diego Business Journal.
