Shawn Steel Law Firm

Shawn Steel has practiced since 1978 creating a new field of law. By defending alternative medicine doctors, Steel developed a boutique area of law defending doctors and representing their patients in personal injury matters.

Steel has always been a champion for the underdogs. In fact, Steel’s landmark case was the historical Peoples Temple of the Disciples of Christ v. The Attorney General of California, No. 746571, where he represented the majority of Los Angeles based families who were victims of the Jonestown Massacre.

Steel has since authored over 40 articles and chapters in books, regarding personal injury and alternative medicine law. He is a frequent lecturer for doctors re-licensing credit throughout California. Steel has been teaching Ethics and Jurisprudence to doctors in training at Cleveland Chiropractic College since 1991. Governor Pete Wilson appointed Steel to serve on the California Acupuncture Board, where he served for 7 years. His colleagues elected Steel as Chairman of that Board for two years in a row. Steel has testified to the legislature, regarding changing laws impacting patient rights.
