TOP ATTORNEYS 2O23
> Few decisions are as fraught as legal decisions and good advice is vital if we are to make good decisions when the law is involved. That’s why choosing a lawyer can be so daunting. With our Annual TOP ATTORNEYS Guide we hope to help you out, and make that decision easier if you should find yourself in need. We asked local lawyers to tell us who among them they thought were the best at what they do, and we’re sharing that elite list with you. These are the best of the best, as chosen by their peers. And they should know.

MICHAEL A. KILLACKEY, ESQ.
KILLACKEY LAW OFFICES, APC Personal Injury
Michael Killackey, Esq., has been a trial attorney successfully litigating catastrophic loss injury cases for over 20 years. In 2010, he founded Killackey Law Offices and was named as finalist for Consumer Attorneys of California, Consumer Attorney of the Year.
Killackey grew up in the San Gabriel Valley and graduated from University of California, Santa Barbara prior to obtaining his J.D. from Loyola Law School, Los Angeles. Killackey began his legal career as a medical malpractice defense attorney. After developing a firm understanding of medicine, he refocused his career and dedicated himself to representing plaintiffs in catastrophic loss cases.
For each case, Killackey takes a personalized approach to knowing his clients, truly understanding the impact their catastrophic injury has upon every aspect of their lives, and then attacks each case with the goal of maximum net recovery for his clients.
“Although I am proud of the various recognitions I have received over the years from Consumer Attorneys of California, Super Lawyers, Pasadena Magazine, etc., my greatest accomplishments come when I successfully maximize my client’s recovery above and beyond a defendant’s insurance limits, especially when the client comes to me after other attorneys have told them to settle for less.”

GINNY HSIAO
GTH LAW GROUP
Family Law and Estate Planning
Whether it’s helping a client navigate complex and emotionally fraught child custody issues or giving high school students a chance to earn scholarship funds through public speaking, advocacy and service to the community have always been the two cornerstones of my professional life. In 2004, I founded GTH Law Group specializing in the intricate fusion of immigration, family law, and estate planning in the areas of pre- and post-nuptial agreements, spousal and child support, child custody, family and employmentbased immigration, property division, and asset preservation.
As an attorney, I’ve sought to give back to my profession by serving as a judge pro tem for the Los Angeles Superior Court, and as past president of the San Gabriel Valley Bar Association. I’ve also worked to advocate for underrepresented members of the legal field as past Diversity and Inclusion Chair for the Asia Pacific Chapter of the American Immigration Lawyers Association, and as a former Diversity Fellow for the American Bar Association.
In the community, I’m channeling my passion for advocacy by helping bring forward the next generation of advocates though public speaking and debate. As chair of both the Lion’s Club Student Speakers Contest and the Rotary Club’s Four-Way Test Speech Competition, we’re providing a platform for high school students to develop their debate skills and win college scholarship prizes through competition.
I earned bachelor’s degrees in psychology and political science from UCLA; J.D. from University of Tennessee, Knoxville. My professional achievements include being admitted to the U.S. Supreme Court, Supreme Court of California, U.S. District Court for Central District of California, and U.S. Courts of Appeal for the 9th Circuit; being recognized by Southern California Super Lawyers; receiving the 2018, 2019, and 2022 Women in Law Awards by Lawyer Monthly; and being voted by peers for the Pasadena magazine Top Lawyers list for 10 consecutive years.

JOSEPH A. KAUFMAN
If you purchased a vehicle that has been in the shop too many times and you think it might be a lemon, good news: California has some of the best consumer protections in the country, and the legal experts at Joseph A. Kaufman & Associates can help you set things right.
We are a consumer protection firm representing consumers and small business owners who have purchased defective automobiles, motorcycles, RVs, trucks, and other consumer goods. I started this firm in 2016 after honing my skills defending lemon law cases for manufacturers in a big firm environment for 13 years. I have always loved the subject matter, the work, and the issues, but was frustrated at not being able to help the party who I thought most needed my assistance. With my own firm I am able to help consumers turn their lemons into lemonade.
Our honors include Southern California Super Lawyer (2023, 2022, 2021, 2020); Rising Star in Southern California by Super Lawyers (2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017 and 2019); and Top Attorney, Pasadena Magazine (2012, 2013, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023).
