Introduction
Marrianne Taleghani is a litigator with extensive trial experience. Marrianne represents individuals, lawyers, real estate professionals, insurance brokers and agents, financial institutions, corporations, homeowner associations, and real property owners in all stages of litigation.
My focus
I focus my practice on real estate litigation, including common interest developments/HOAs, co-ownership disputes, and construction/development disputes. I also represent and advise real estate brokers/agents, insurance brokers/agents, and financial professionals on professional liability-related claims.
As a litigator, I have successfully tried several cases before juries and judges, and have also obtained favorable results for clients in dozens of mediations and arbitrations. I have also successfully defended HOAs and other private entities in fair housing, unlawful discrimination, and breach of fiduciary duty claims.
I co-chair the Diversity Section of the Marin County Bar Association and previously served on the board of the Filipino Bar Association of Northern California. I also served as an adjunct professor at the Golden Gate University School of Law.
