Kabateck Partner Anastasia Mazzella has been recognized in the Daily Journal‘s “Top Women Lawyers 2025” for the second consecutive year for her exceptional work in plaintiff-side litigation and her dedication to seeking justice for wildfire victims.
The feature highlights Mazzella’s practice focusing on employment, personal injury, sexual abuse, and consumer protection cases. As Kabateck’s first female partner, she has established herself as a formidable advocate since joining the firm in 2011.
Mazzella’s commitment to wildfire litigation has taken on deeply personal significance after she and her family were forced to evacuate their Altadena home during the Eaton Fire. “Our home is still standing, but uninhabitable,” she shared with the Daily Journal. This firsthand experience has strengthened her resolve to represent fire victims, currently leading a mass action against Southern California Edison involving over 400 individuals across 156 households.
The feature also spotlights her ongoing work with firm founder Brian Kabateck on the high-profile DWP billing fraud case, where they successfully forced disgorgement of ill-gotten fees and continue monitoring compliance with settlement terms.
Mazzella’s recognition underscores Kabateck’s commitment to complex litigation and advocacy for those seeking justice against powerful defendants.
