Craig Diamond
Diamond Baker Mitchell Cole, LLP
Craig A. Diamond has tried cases throughout the State of California and in the State of Washington during his more than four decades of practicing law. He has tried brain damage, wrongful death, traumatic amputations, products and premises liability cases, large value construction defect cases, as well as a wage and hour class action and commercial matters for both plaintiffs and defendants. Craig has also appeared before the California First and Third District Courts of Appeal, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals and before the United States Supreme Court.
Craig’s extensive experience in the courtroom has led him to understand that there are times when mediation as an alternative to litigation is appropriate and can be a better solution for the disputing parties. Craig focuses his mediation practice on:
- Personal Injury Disputes
- Real Estate Disputes
- Employment & Workplace Disputes
- Business Disputes
- Commercial Disputes
- Contract Disputes
- Partnership Disputes
Craig’s accomplishments over the years have led him be selected by his peers as a member of the American Board of Trial Advocates (ABOTA). Craig was also a firefighter for 15 years, and a fire investigator for 12 years. He was voted “Firefighter of the year” in 1996. His motto: “I learned my courtroom composure at the nozzle of a hose in the middle of a burning building… if you can stay composed there, the courtroom is a breeze.”
