Introduction

Co-founder Alexander Mardirossian once helped a client recover more compensation from a car accident than the client had expected, and successfully dismissed a 100 mph speeding ticket for another. Those outcomes, one involving maximizing injury recovery and one involving elimination of a serious traffic penalty, illustrate the practical, results-oriented approach that defines Amadian Mardirossian Legal, known as AML Legal APC. The firm has recovered more than $5,000,000 for its clients across personal injury, lemon law, traffic, and landlord-tenant matters since its founding.

AML Legal APC is located at 212 S. Palm Avenue, Suite 200, Alhambra, CA 91801. The firm serves clients throughout California. Phone: (818) 660-5088. Email: Service@AMLegalAPC.com. Website: amlegalapc.com.

Practice Areas

Personal Injury

The personal injury practice at AML Legal APC covers car accidents, motorcycle accidents, dog bites, and property damage claims. California’s personal injury framework includes a two-year statute of limitations for most claims and a pure comparative negligence standard. Under pure comparative negligence, an injured person can recover regardless of their degree of fault in the accident, with the recovery reduced in proportion to their assigned fault percentage.

Car accidents are the most common source of personal injury claims in California. The firm’s approach to these cases includes thorough documentation of liability, careful analysis of insurance coverage, and aggressive pursuit of the full compensation clients are entitled to for their injuries and losses. Co-founder Alexander Mardirossian’s direct experience of securing more compensation for a car accident client than expected reflects the firm’s commitment to pushing for maximum recovery rather than accepting whatever an insurer initially offers.

Motorcycle accidents involve serious risks that are unique to motorcycle riders. The absence of the structural protection that surrounds passenger vehicle occupants means motorcycle accident injuries are often more severe. Building the liability case in a motorcycle accident and countering the tendency of insurance companies to assign disproportionate fault to motorcycle riders requires specific experience in this area.

Dog bites in California are governed by strict liability under Civil Code Section 3342. Dog owners are liable for bites that occur in public places or when the victim is lawfully present on private property, regardless of whether the dog had bitten anyone before. The strict liability standard eliminates the need to prove the owner’s prior knowledge of the dog’s dangerous tendencies.

Property damage claims address situations where negligence has caused damage to a client’s property. Whether arising from a vehicle accident, a neighbor’s actions, or another source, the firm pursues recovery for property losses alongside or separately from personal injury claims.

Lemon Law

California’s Lemon Law, the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, provides remedies for consumers who purchase or lease new vehicles that turn out to have substantial defects that the manufacturer cannot repair within a reasonable number of attempts. Qualifying vehicles can be subject to buyback, replacement, or cash compensation. The law also provides for attorney fees to be paid by the manufacturer, meaning consumers do not typically need to pay out of pocket for lemon law representation.

AML Legal APC handles lemon law claims for California consumers dealing with defective vehicles, guiding clients through the process of asserting their rights under the statute and pursuing the remedies they are entitled to.

Traffic Tickets

The firm handles traffic ticket defense, including serious infractions such as the 100 mph speeding ticket that co-founder Alexander Mardirossian successfully dismissed. Traffic violations can carry consequences beyond the immediate fine: points on a driving record, increased insurance premiums, and, for commercial drivers, risks to their license status. Defending against a traffic ticket, particularly one involving high-speed or other aggravating circumstances, requires legal advocacy that simple payment of the fine does not provide.

Landlord-Tenant Law

The landlord-tenant practice serves clients on both sides of rental relationships. California’s landlord-tenant law is detailed and frequently updated, creating obligations and rights for both landlords and tenants that are not always apparent from the face of a lease agreement. The firm provides guidance on lease disputes, habitability issues, security deposit matters, and the range of conflicts that arise in residential and commercial rental situations.

Attorney Profiles

Alexander Mardirossian is a co-founder of AML Legal APC and brings a personal approach to client representation. He is available to clients in person, by phone, and by email to answer questions throughout a matter. His accessibility is a deliberate feature of how he practices: clients are not left waiting for information or wondering about the status of their cases. His track record includes recovering more compensation for a car accident client than the client had anticipated and securing a dismissal of a 100 mph speeding ticket.

Teni Amadian is the other co-founder of AML Legal APC. She holds a Juris Doctor from Southwestern Law School, where she graduated in 2022, and a Bachelor of Science in Business Law from California State University Northridge. Her academic background in business law complements the firm’s practice in areas that intersect law and commerce, including lemon law and landlord-tenant matters.

Together, Alexander Mardirossian and Teni Amadian bring more than 20 years of combined legal experience to the firm’s practice.

Notable Results

Recovery of more compensation than expected for a car accident client, demonstrating the value of pushing beyond initial insurer offers and building a thorough liability and damages record.

Client Focus

AML Legal APC is structured for clients who want direct access to the attorneys handling their matters. Alexander Mardirossian’s stated availability to answer questions in person, by phone, and by email reflects a practice model where clients are not filtered through layers of support staff when they need information about their cases.

The firm’s five-million-dollar-plus recovery record spans multiple practice areas, which means clients with overlapping needs, such as a car accident that also involves a property damage claim, or a lemon law matter alongside a traffic ticket, can address multiple legal issues through the same firm.

California’s statute of limitations rules apply to each practice area differently. Personal injury claims generally have a two-year window. Lemon law claims have their own timing requirements tied to warranty periods and repair attempts. Traffic ticket deadlines are often measured in weeks from the date of citation. Prompt contact with the firm allows clients to understand the applicable deadlines for their specific situation.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is California’s Lemon Law, and how do I know if my car qualifies?

California’s Lemon Law, formally the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act, covers new vehicles sold or leased with substantial defects that the manufacturer has failed to repair within a reasonable number of attempts or within a reasonable period. If your vehicle has been in for repair multiple times for the same defect, or has been out of service for an extended period, it may qualify. The law requires manufacturers to either replace the vehicle or provide a buyback, and it allows for attorney fees to be paid by the manufacturer, so clients often have no out-of-pocket cost for lemon law representation.

How is AML Legal APC’s personal injury fee structured?

Personal injury cases at AML Legal APC are handled on a contingency basis, meaning clients pay no attorney fees unless the firm recovers compensation for them.

Yes. Co-founder Alexander Mardirossian successfully dismissed a 100 mph speeding ticket for a client, which is among the more serious traffic violations under California law.
