}}Garo Mardirossian (born 1956)[1][2][2] is a prominent Armenian-American lawyer practicing in Los Angeles.[1] Mardirossian has had significant law cases involving personal injury, civil rights, complex litigation, product liability, and constitutional law. Several of the cases he has been involved in have brought national and international attention, including the Dole bridal shower[1] and Thomas beating cases by different police agencies. The Dole Family case involved many victims, including the television celebrity female wrestler known as Mt. Fiji (Emily Dole),[3][4][5] and resulted in the highest monetary jury award against a policing agency in U.S. history.[1][6][7]
