Bobby Taghavi

Bobby Taghavi is a trial attorney with nearly two decades of experience representing individuals and families impacted by serious injury and loss. Throughout his legal career, Bobby has focused on advocacy for victims—work that spans public service, courtroom litigation, and personal injury law.

Before joining Sweet James Accident Attorneys, Bobby spent 12 years at the Orange County District Attorney’s Office, where he served as a Senior Deputy District Attorney. In that role, he prosecuted a wide range of serious criminal matters and worked closely with victims throughout the legal process. His responsibilities included managing complex investigations, preparing cases for jury trial, and guiding victims through proceedings that often involved difficult and emotionally charged circumstances.

During his time at the District Attorney’s Office, Bobby was assigned to several specialized units, including the Sexual Assault Unit, the Gang/Target Unit, the Special Operations Unit, and the Golden State Killer Task Force. These assignments required close coordination with law enforcement agencies, victim advocates, and forensic experts, as well as a strong focus on accountability, preparation, and ethical advocacy.

In addition to his courtroom work, Bobby played an active role in training and mentorship. He served as President of the Association of Orange County Deputy District Attorneys and as a member of the Board of Directors for the Orange County Attorney’s Association. He was also a faculty member of the Orange County District Attorney’s training unit, where he taught trial advocacy and litigation fundamentals to prosecutors. Bobby has conducted training for law enforcement agencies and victim advocacy organizations, and has taught courses at law schools, universities, and colleges.

After transitioning to private practice, Bobby brought his background in victim advocacy to personal injury law and civil litigation. He has represented individuals injured in a wide range of matters, including motor vehicle collisions, catastrophic injury cases, and other complex civil disputes. His experience as a prosecutor, plaintiff’s attorney, and defense attorney provides him with perspective on how cases are evaluated, defended, and tried.

At Sweet James, Bobby’s work is centered on helping injured victims understand their legal options and navigate the recovery process after an accident or serious injury. His approach emphasizes preparation, communication, and advocacy, with a focus on ensuring that clients are informed and supported throughout their case.

Over the course of his career, Bobby has participated in numerous jury trials in California courts, and some matters he has worked on have received public attention. Outcomes in any legal matter depend on the specific facts and circumstances of each case, and past results do not predict future outcomes.
