VideoJug: Michael Ehline

California attorney, Michael P. Ehline, is a former California Court of Appeal Judicial Extern. Michael Ehline "read" for the law in a law office and judge's chambers on the California State Bar Law Office Study Program, passing the California State Bar Exam with no college degree or law degree. This is similar to how President Abraham Lincoln and many other famous lawyers got their start.

Ehline remained on the California State Bar Law Office Study Program, but was accepted into law school after passing the Baby Bar (18% pass). Ehline became a sworn, practicing attorney before he got his JD (law degree).

Also while on the Law Office Study Program, Ehline interned for approximately 2 years, in the Criminal Prosecution Division of the City Attorney of Los Angeles. While still in law school, Ehline became a Certified Law Student. Ehline tried three (3) civil law cases to the jury, while a Certified Law Student.

Other Experience

Michael Ehline has litigated civil cases with:

• Trial Attorney of the Year, Gary A. Dordick, and many other prominent and respected California trial attorneys
• Ehline was invited to extern for the California Court of Appeal, Second Appellate District, Division 4, in 2004, under Associate Justice J. Gary Hastings
• Has Non Press Release Articles in Los Angeles Daily Journal and California Lawyer Magazine
• Ehline is seasoned in the art of appellate practice and procedure.

• Due to his experiences on the California State Bar Law Office Study Program, as a law clerk and 11 year paralegal in dealing with insurance companies, Ehline learned all the tricks and games insurance adjustors play to avoid paying on valid insurance claims.

  This gave Ehline a head start over new attorneys who only learned black letter law in a law school. Learning law in a law office taught Ehline the games many attorneys play and also how to get what the insurance companies owe victims of negligence and first party insured's.

  Last and of special interest, Ehline took and passed both the California State Bar First Year Law Student's Examination "Baby Bar" and California General Bar Exam, and became a practicing attorney, prior to completing college or law school.
