Attorneys

Louanne Masry, daughter of renowned attorney Ed Masry of "Erin Brockovich" fame, practiced law at her late-father's law firm Masry & Vititoe in Westlake Village from 1997 until 2007, when she then joined forces with Taylor & Ring.

Ed Masry became a household name in the late 1990s after he successfully pursued a toxic tort case at the urging of his assistant, Erin Brockovich. That case ultimately was settled by Pacific Gas & Electric for over $300 million. Erin Brockovich and Ed Masry's story was made into the hit movie in 2000 starring Julia Roberts and Albert Finney. Ed Masry passed away in 2005 from complications caused by diabetes.

Like her father, Louanne's experience as an attorney has been wide-ranging: she has litigated a diverse collection of cases over the years, including such notables as Pamela Anderson-Lee's stolen sex tape case, complex toxic tort cases, invasion of privacy cases against tabloids on behalf of celebrity clients, product liability cases involving tainted vitamin and herbal supplements, elder abuse and medical malpractice cases, and a variety of serious personal injury cases.

Louanne received her bachelor's degree from UCLA and her law degree from Whittier Law School, where she graduated magna cum laude and received many academic awards.

Louanne handles cases involving serious personal injury, wrongful death, elder abuse, nursing home neglect, sexual abuse, products liability, and medical malpractice, including birth injuries against negligent hospitals or doctors.

She is a member of Consumer Attorneys Association of Los Angeles (CAALA), the American Association for Justice (AAJ), and the Consumer Attorneys Organization of California (CAOC).
