Elizabeth Mitchell has litigated thousands of criminal and civil cases in multiple jurisdictions. She is widely recognized for her work on the groundbreaking lawsuit against the City and County of Los Angeles demanding beds, services and treatment for thousands of homeless individuals – and clean and safe streets for the community. The lawsuit prompted swift and dynamic action by the Federal Court during the COVID-19 crisis, which ultimately resulted in a $4 billion commitment for an additional 20,000 beds with services and treatment for homeless Angelenos by the City and County of Los Angeles, and commitment to encampment reduction.

Mitchell has served on the boards of the Women Lawyers Association of Los Angeles, California Women Lawyers, and the Cedars Sinai NICU Parent Family Council.
