Sacramento personal injury law firm Demas Law Group, P.C. announced that two of its trial attorneys will serve as featured speakers at the upcoming Consumer Attorneys of California (CAOC) Napa/Sonoma Travel Seminar. The event brings together hundreds of trial lawyers from across California for continuing legal education programs focused on personal injury litigation, trial strategy, and complex civil cases.
Founder John Demas will speak and moderate the session "Auto Litigation: Product Liability, Damages, and Reconstruction." The program will explore advanced litigation strategies used in serious car accident cases, including vehicle defect claims, accident reconstruction analysis, and proving damages in catastrophic injury cases. Demas has been invited to speak at numerous legal education events and previously addressed the CAOC seminar on emerging trends in auto accident litigation.
Litigation attorney Tim Spangler will speak during the session "Nuances of Litigation Against Government Entities of All Kinds." The presentation will examine the complex legal issues that arise when public agencies, municipalities, and law enforcement entities are involved in injury litigation, including emergency vehicle immunity, claims against public universities and institutions, and cases involving dangerous roadway conditions. With more than 25 years of experience as a civil litigator, Spangler brings a unique perspective from his prior roles in insurance defense, as trial counsel, and as former chief counsel for the Sacramento Regional Transit District.
The annual seminar is hosted jointly by the Consumer Attorneys of California (CAOC) and the Capitol City Trial Lawyers Association (CCTLA), taking place March 13–14 at The Meritage Resort in Napa, California. These educational programs represent significant opportunities for legal professionals to stay current with evolving laws and litigation techniques that directly impact how injury cases are handled throughout the state.
"The team at Demas Law Group believes strongly in the power of professional education and collaboration to improve the practice of law," said Demas. The firm has represented individuals and families harmed by car accidents, motorcycle crashes, truck collisions, and other catastrophic injury incidents throughout Northern California for nearly 30 years. Attorneys from Demas Law Group regularly contribute to legal education programs and professional organizations, sharing insights on trial strategy, injury litigation, and developments in California personal injury law.
This participation in major legal education events demonstrates how trial lawyers continuously refine their approaches to complex cases, potentially affecting outcomes for injured individuals across California. The exchange of litigation strategies at seminars like the CAOC Napa/Sonoma Travel Seminar contributes to the overall quality of legal representation available to consumers navigating the personal injury system.
