Administrative and regulatory law

The field of administrative law concerns government regulation of private activity. It covers a very wide range of cases, from licensing applications and revocations to land use issues to enforcement of securities, labor, and network marketing laws. Cases involving challenges to government action often involve procedures and legal questions that are quite different from those applicable to litigation between private parties. Wellman & Warren has an insider's understanding of this complex field, with prior experience working for government agencies as well as for parties regulated by them. noteworthy cases »

Appeals and writs

Litigation does not always end with an initial decision by a trial court or administrative agency. Very often, the unsuccessful party will seek review by a higher court in an appellate or writ proceeding. These proceedings require a very different set of skills from those involved in cases at the trial level. Wellman & Warren's attorneys have extensive experience in civil and criminal appellate practice, and have won many appeals in difficult, high-profile cases in both state and federal courts. noteworthy cases »

Land use

One of Wellman & Warren's main practice areas is the field of land-use regulation. Some cities and counties oppose new development proposals because they want to maintain a small and exclusive population within their borders, or because they are ideologically opposed to the project, or for some other reason. Clients frustrated by local governmental opposition to legitimate land-use proposals need attorneys with particular expertise in the areas of administrative law, civil rights litigation, and regulatory takings. Wellman & Warren's attorneys have practiced and published extensively in these areas. To give a single example among many, we recently obtained a $2,000,000 settlement from the City of Anaheim because of its unconstitutional opposition to the siting of an adult-entertainment club. noteworthy cases »

Civil rights

The field of civil rights litigation is very broad, encompassing not only opposition to discrimination, but challenges to unfair and arbitrary laws and other government conduct. Wellman & Warren's experience in federal and state civil rights litigation includes cases involving discrimination, restrictions on speech and expression, limitations on land use, and violations of due process. noteworthy cases »

	Personal Injury
	Wellman & Warren have successfully settled or litigated hundreds of personal injury cases on behalf of plaintiffs, and have obtained over $40,000,000 for their clients. noteworthy cases »
