The Morrison Law Group announced its formation on April 21, 2006. The Firm is headed by its principal, Edward F. Morrison, Jr., 47 years old, a veteran Los Angeles based trial lawyer and maintains its offices in downtown Los Angeles.

Having celebrated its fourth anniversary, the Firm's principal, Edward F. Morrison, Jr., in a statement issued June 29, 2010 said:

"In the fifty months the Firm has been in operation, the Firm has won a binding arbitration before the American Arbitration Association (the arbitrator ruled that the Firm's client owed no money on the claim and awarded the Firm's client all attorney's fees and costs), obtained a Judgment from the Trial Court following the Firm's first Superior Court trial in December 2006, completed four jury trials and was successful in obtaining an Order and Alternative Writ from the Court of Appeal where the trial court was ordered to grant a motion for summary judgment based on the statute of limitations.

The Firm has also collected and/or obtained settlements totaling over $2,000,000 in a variety of construction, contract and business litigation matters, has been named to the approved attorney panels of three major insurers and has taken on over 200 new assignments since its founding in April 2006. The Firm has also published forty-eight editions of The Morrison Law Journal and is ready to go to press with its forty-ninth edition which discusses a recentCalifornia Court of Appeal, Second District where the Court ruled that a California trial court has the discretion to deny a Petition to Compel Arbitration in certain matters involving the California Association of Realtors standard form residential purchase agreement - even though the present form of the agreement specifically provides that the arbitration contract is to be interpreted under the Federal Arbitration Act which does not provide the trial court such discretion. I have also been named a California Super Lawyer for 2010 (Business Litigation), which represents the top five percent of California attorneys and am pleased with the continued progress and growth in the law firm's practice."
