Having a diverse background is one of the reasons Mr. Geller can negotiate and argue cases so effectively. Although a native of southern California, Mr. Geller displayed his leadership skills playing college baseball and obtaining his Bachelor of Science from the University of Colorado Boulder. After working in the corporate world in San Francisco for two years, he returned to Los Angeles and attended Southwestern University School of Law. He volunteered, and later worked throughout law school, for the Los Angeles District Attorney’s Office.

Upon graduating from law school, he was employed with the L.A. D.A.’s Office for several years as a trial attorney, where he tried all types of cases—from DUIs to homicide. He has always been active in professional and community activities, including the Los Angeles County Bar Association, the Beverly Hills Bar Association, the Indigent Criminal Defense Appointments Program, coaching trial advocacy teams at Southwestern University, and judging trial advocacy competitions.

It is Mr. Geller’s well-roundedness that has enabled him to succeed as a criminal defense attorney in Southern California. His dedication and ability to relate and communicate with people has enabled him to negotiate settlements and dismissals, often on the eve of trial.
