Senior Managing Partner
Roy J. Park founded Park|Guenthart in 2011 with a simple idea: there had to be a better way to practice workers’ compensation defense. What started as a one-attorney practice has since grown into a firm of more than 40 attorneys representing employers, insurance carriers, and third-party administrators throughout California. The firm has changed considerably along the way. Roy’s approach to the business of law has not. He believes good lawyers know the law. Great lawyers understand their clients.
