John Gomez Extends Two-Decade Streak in Best Lawyers Rankings

Gomez is recognized in the latest edition for his work in Mass Tort Litigation, Personal Injury Litigation, and Product Liability Litigation. Unlike many professional directories that rely on paid placement, the Best Lawyers list is compiled through confidential peer evaluations. This selection process requires attorneys to maintain a positive reputation among fellow practitioners to secure repeat appearances, a standard Gomez has met consistently since his first inclusion in 2008.

This latest accolade arrives as Gomez Trial Attorneys marks its own two-decade milestone. Founded in San Diego in 2005, the firm recently expanded its reach by opening an office in Tijuana, Mexico, to better serve the California-Mexico corridor. Earlier this year, Gomez also secured the No. 2 spot on the 2026 San Diego Super Lawyers Top 10 list. Despite the recurring industry recognition, Gomez emphasizes that his firm’s core mission remains centered on trial preparation and client advocacy rather than awards. He maintains that the responsibility of representing individuals against powerful institutions continues to drive his practice as the firm grows.
