Ashwin V. Ladva - Turning Legal Battles into Justice Won.
"When your livelihood, health, or dignity is on the line you deserve a lawyer who will stand, fight, and win alongside you."
A Legacy of Advocacy Since 1999
For more than 25 years, Ashwin V. Ladva has been a trusted legal force in the San Francisco Bay Area, representing individuals against insurance companies, corporations, and government entities. Known for his relentless pursuit of justice, Mr. Ladva Ashwin blends advanced litigation skills with the compassion and personal attention every client deserves.
After graduating from the University of California, Hastings College of the Law, where he was a member of the Women’s Law Journal, a platform advocating for social justice and amplifying underrepresented voices, Mr. Ladva clerked for Hon. Judge Bea of the San Francisco Superior Court. These formative experiences instilled in him both sharp legal acumen and a deep commitment to fairness.
Early Career & Founding of Ladva Law Firm
Mr. Ladva began his career at a mid-sized law firm in San Jose, quickly earning the trust of partners and judges alike by successfully arguing complex matters in both Federal and Superior Courts. In 2000, driven by a passion to stand up for individuals against powerful adversaries, he opened his own practice in San Francisco.
By 2002 just two years later his reputation had grown so significantly that he expanded to a second office in Fremont, extending his reach to serve even more communities across California.
