LUIS LI
Partner
Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati
Luis Li arrived at Wilson Sonsini in 2021 as an integral part of the firm’s push to enhance its profile as a national trial firm.
Less than a year later, Li delivered in a big way when he secured a $15 million jury award (and ultimately a nearly $30 million settlement) for Kobe Bryant’s widow Vanessa in the nationally covered trial following the helicopter crash that took the life of the basketball legend, their daughter and seven others. The jury returned its verdict in favor of Bryant after just four hours of deliberation. Their conclusion followed a two-week trial in which Li and his team demonstrated that Los Angeles County first responders lacked proper training and policies.
