About Minas Nordanyan

A UCLA graduate who earned his Juris Doctorate from Loyola Marymount Law School, Minas has been helping injured clients since 2007 — seven years before founding the firm. His unique background as a three-time national chess champion and National Chess Master translates directly to complex litigation strategy: he thinks several moves ahead, anticipates insurance company tactics, and positions every case for maximum recovery. Licensed in California, Nevada, and Federal Court (Central District), Minas has built Nordanyan Law into one of Southern California's most aggressive workers' compensation practices, with 10+ six-figure judicial awards and a 99.9% win rate across 7,500+ cases.

Client Testimonials

I had a very positive experience working with Minas Nordanyan and his team on my workers' compensation case. Minas was knowledgeable and guided me through a process that was not easy. His staff was incredibly helpful — especially Crystal and Mayra, who were always responsive and patient, and took the time to answer my questions and follow up when needed. They made a stressful situation much easier to navigate. I'm very grateful for their support and pleased with the outcome of my case. I highly recommend this firm.

I'm incredibly grateful to the entire staff at Nordanyan Law for their outstanding work on my family's automobile injury case. From the beginning, attorney David showed compassion, dedication, and professionalism. He took the time to explain every step of the process clearly, kept us updated regularly, and made us feel like a priority. He fought for what was fair and made sure my family's voice was heard. Thanks to David and the staff for their hard work and expertise that reached a favorable outcome. I highly recommend Nordanyan Law to anyone in need of legal representation. This firm truly cares and will fight hard. Thank you, David, and the entire staff for everything you've done for my family.
