Background

About Sequoia Evleshin

Over the course of my 25-year legal career I have acquired experience in personal injury, personal injury defense, probate, real estate, and litigation in each of these fields. As a result of my experience, I’ve developed a broad skill set: strong research skills of nuanced and complex legal issues, strong analytical skills, and excellent writing skills. My experience has provided opportunities to interact with members from every segment of our society and an exceptional ability to meet the needs of any of my clients: interviewing clients about the facts of his/her/their case, succinctly explaining complex legal issues and necessary evidentiary support thereof in easy and understandable terms. As an associate I have had the unique opportunity to bring my 20 plus years of litigation experience to this role. I make multiple weekly court appearances, conduct and attend multiple depositions every week. I’ve represented defendants at MSC’s, and prepared numerous motions on all manner of subjects. I lead and participate in trial team meetings, prepare trial documents, and lead communications with opposing counsel in this regard. I work exclusively on hourly billable cases with settlement ranges in the millions. In my 15 months of employment at McClaugherty I’ve settled over 60 cases and my greatest asset at this job has been my ability to work with plaintiff’s counsel in order to obtain the best possible outcome for my clients; decades of employment at plaintiff firms has been a major asset. My military and management experience has provided me the opportunity to become an excellent leader and teammate. I am a highly motivated self-starter with the ability to work autonomously and/or with minimal supervision. Overall, I have been consistently praised at every employment position for excellent work product and results by employers and co-workers because I have consistently demonstrated the ability to succeed, provide cogent and detailed analysis, and to solve complex legal issues with positive results.
