Leilani Jones Bio

Leilani Jones’ professional philosophy includes working as a team with her clients, and aggressively advocating for their interests. Personal investment is her priority, whether it’s defending employers against single-plaintiff suits or wage-and-hour matters or handling complex commercial litigation for a business. She focuses on all aspects of employment defense, but also has extensive experience with consumer class actions regarding unfair competition, false advertising, and the Consumer Legal Remedies Act (“CLRA”). Lani is a utility player for her clients, with a wide range of experience in employment, business, and insurance litigation in both trial and federal courts, making her an asset to the companies she defends. Lani knows the importance of being fully equipped to assist with any issue—from trade secrets and business torts to labor and employment advisement, to insurance bad faith. As a result, she’s had the opportunity to represent a variety of clients in fintech, healthcare, manufacturing, staffing, construction and homebuilding. A graduate of the University of San Diego Law School, Lani dedicated hundreds of hours as a student associate at USD’s Entrepreneurship and Veterans Legal Clinics. She also worked as a research assistant on employment law matters, as well as a teaching assistant for Property Law. Lani received a full academic scholarship to Brigham Young University and remains a die-hard Cougar fan. Outside of the office, Lani is active in her church community, and when it’s not college football season, you can find Lani competing in some sort of athletic race or event, or else spending weekends at the beach with her husband and son.
