Garo Mardirossian (born 1956)[1][2][note 1] is a prominent Armenian-American lawyer practicing in Los Angeles.[1] Mardirossian has handled significant cases involving personal injury, civil rights, complex litigation, product liability, and constitutional law. Several of the cases he has been involved in have garnered national and international attention, including the Dole bridal shower[1] and the Thomas beating cases by different police agencies. The Dole Family case involved numerous victims, including the television celebrity and female wrestler known as Mt. Fiji (Emily Dole),[3][4][note 2] and resulted in the highest monetary jury award against a policing agency in U.S. history.[1][2][note 3]
