REV:
Peter Langbord is a partner in Foley Mansfield’s Los Angeles office.
An experienced trial attorney who has defended multiple cases to verdict, his practice is centered on toxic tort litigation (asbestos exposure), general liability, real estate (with an emphasis on landlord liability defense), and commercial litigation.
Over the last several years, Peter has tried numerous cases defending manufacturers and premises owners in asbestos exposure personal injury matters in state and federal court in Northern and Southern California. In 2021, he tried his first Zoom jury trial.
Peter’s experience in complex real estate-related matters includes property damage claims, title disputes, eminent domain, and environmental contamination cases.
Recently, he resolved a case for a prominent property owner sued by a Northern California Redevelopment Agency for eminent domain and violation of California’s Polanco Act. Peter favorably resolved the case, allowing the client to retain ownership of the property and minimized the cost of remediation by requiring prior property owners to share in remediation expenses.
He also handles numerous habitability claims against landlords in Southern and Northern California.
His diverse business and corporate law practice include secured transactions, forgery, broker malpractice, easements, and negotiable instruments.
A former amateur state surfing competitor and road racing cyclist, Peter currently enjoys road cycling, working out, and enjoying the company of his wife, daughter and two dogs.
We represent our clients with creativity, simplicity, clarity and brevity, coupled with a slavish attention to detail.
