Daniel J. Callahan and Edward Susolik of Callahan & Blaine, one of the leading business litigation firms in California, have been named to the Orange County Business Journal’s OC 500, a list honoring the most influential people in Orange County, California.
OC 500 honorees range from top executives at the largest publicly traded or privately held companies to up-and-comers, as well as a diverse group of governmental, philanthropic, religious and other civic representatives who contribute to the community of business. It is very rare that two attorneys from the same law firm are named to this prestigious list.

His many record-breaking verdicts and settlements include a $934 million jury verdict in a complex business litigation case, recognized as the largest jury verdict in the history of Orange County. In addition, Callahan obtained a $50 million settlement in a personal injury case involving a dangerous condition of public property, which has been certified as one of the largest personal injury settlement in U.S. history. He has been named one of the Top 10 Attorneys in the United States by the National Law Journal and recognized by Super Lawyers as one of “Top 10 Lawyers in Southern California.”
