Joseph Wohrle, Partner
Allen+Wohrle, LLP
A southern California native, Joe has been practicing law for nearly two decades. Additionally, since 2005, Joe has been an Adjunct Professor of Law at his alma mater, Loyola Law School, where he teaches advanced civil procedure to second and third-year law students. Joe also serves as a temporary judge in the Los Angeles County Superior Court. Joe is a founding partner of Allen + Wohrle, LLP, where he litigates disputes for clients in the entertainment, advertising, real estate, and manufacturing industries.
In 2003, Joe was the lead trial counsel for a multinational manufacturer in a lawsuit against a U.S.-based distributor and a former shareholder. After a three-week trial, Joe obtained a $13.7 million jury verdict and judgment against both defendants. On February 23, 2004, this victory was featured in a Los Angeles Daily Journal article entitled “Kohap Wins $13.7 Million Award Against Grand Bell”.
In 1999, Joe represented an auto body shop that was sued for over $1 million by an insurance company which alleged that the owners were part of a conspiracy ring that had committed fraud.Ultimately, the insurance company, represented by a large law firm, accepted the body shop’s settlement offer for an amount that was less than 5% of the amount demanded. Allegations by the same insurer led the California Bureau of Automotive Repair to seek the permanent revocation of the body shop’s license. Joe again successfully represented the body shop, proved that no fraud had been committed, and prevented the revocation of the body shop’s license.These related cases were the subject of an October 17, 2001 cover story in the Los Angeles Daily Journal entitled “Big Deal”. In that same edition, the Los Angeles Daily Journal also profiled Joe in an article entitled “Gentlemanly Fighter”.
Joe also was trial counsel for the former owners of a shopping center sued by a national fast-food chain. Joe obtained a judgment in his clients’ favor after a three-day trial, and an award of nearly $100,000 in attorney’s fees.
Joe is a frequent commentator on the radio, where he discusses legal issues of general interest.
The firm represents entities and individuals in the entertainment, media, real estate, construction, on-line, and manufacturing industries.
