About the 2026 LACBA Litigation Symposium
The 2026 LACBA Litigation Symposium is hosted by the Los Angeles County Bar Association’s Litigation Section, an organization that has served California’s civil trial practitioners for over 50 years. This full-day litigation event brings together attorneys, judges, and legal professionals from across the state for a day of substantive programming, continuing legal education, and professional connections. It’s one of the most well-regarded gatherings for litigation lawyers in California, and being selected to moderate a panel is a recognition that carries real weight among peers.
A Panel Topic That Hits Close to Home
The panel that Mr. Bronshteyn will moderate, Discovery After Death: Practical Guidance and Limitations, addresses the complex procedural and evidentiary questions that arise when a party to a case passes away during the course of litigation. He will be joined by Hon. Gus T. May, Hon. James A. Steele (Judge, Ret.), Hon. Mary Thornton House (Judge, Ret.), and Nicholas Van Brunt.
This topic covers issues that frequently emerge in trust disputes, probate proceedings, and contested estate matters: exactly the kinds of cases Ginzburg & Bronshteyn handles every day. For families navigating the legal aftermath of a loved one’s death, these are not abstract legal questions. They have real consequences for the outcome of a case. Having a moderator with Mr. Bronshteyn’s hands-on experience in trust and estate litigation means this panel will offer the kind of grounded, practical insight that only comes from years in the courtroom.
