Caspar Jivalagian is a founding partner of KJT Law Group, LLP, a Los Angeles personal injury and complex litigation firm. He concentrates his practice on difficult liability cases, catastrophic injury claims and premises liability matters. These are cases that require not just legal knowledge, but creative strategy, disciplined investigation and the strength to stay in a fight longer than the other side expects.
Caspar built his career at prominent Los Angeles law firms before co-founding KJT, developing deep experience across workers’ compensation, serious personal injury and complex civil litigation. He also clerked for a Superior Court judge, drafting legal opinions and working closely on intricate matters. This experience sharpened his understanding of how cases are ultimately decided and what it takes to win.
What further distinguishes Caspar is his approach to cases where liability is genuinely contested. He knows that insurance companies are accustomed to run-of-the-mill claims that resolve quickly. He instead focuses on matters that don’t, the kinds of cases that require painstaking evidence gathering, a well-constructed narrative and the patience to make the other side understand the seriousness of what they’re facing. In one class-action wage theft matter against a national retailer, Caspar made the deliberate decision to walk away from early settlement discussions and litigated the case for several additional years until the defense’s posture changed. This ultimately secured a substantially better outcome.
Clients consistently value his calm under pressure and his commitment to setting realistic expectations. He believes every person who engages the firm is trusting him with something important, and that trust shapes everything from how he communicates to how he prepares. He gives clients a clear view of the whole process up front, breaks it into digestible pieces and keeps them focused on the result rather than any potential bump along the way.
Beyond his practice, Caspar maintains a longstanding commitment to human rights advocacy. He holds leadership positions in local and international organizations and traveling regularly to Armenia, Artsakh, Washington D.C., and Sacramento to engage with diplomats and legislators on issues of justice and human rights.
