Born and raised in Los Angeles, Elwina is familiar with its diverse community and their legal needs. Prior to starting KACE LAW, Elwina was an associate at a plaintiffs’ Labor & Employment firm where she represented clients unfairly compensated, discriminated against, and wrongfully terminated by their employers. During her time there, she took and defended countless depositions, wrote and argued numerous motions, successfully defeated summary judgment motions, and settled numerous cases — often above the expected market value. Additionally, Elwina was an associate attorney for a Medical Malpractice defense firm and a leading national defense firm where she worked on catastrophic injury, medical malpractice, elder abuse, and both individual and class action employment matters. Through her experience, she gained valuable insight on the litigation strategies and tactics employed by the other side, which she uses to advocate for her clients today.
