What Singleton Schreiber does

Singleton Schreiber is a privately held plaintiff-side law firm organized as a California LLP, headquartered in San Diego. The firm represents individuals, public entities, and mass tort classes in litigation against corporations, utilities, and government defendants, with 21 offices across nine U.S. states. Its core practice areas are wildfire litigation, class actions, personal injury, mass torts, civil rights, environmental litigation, public entity law, insurance recovery and bad faith, whistleblower matters, sexual assault and human trafficking, tribal litigation, and consumer protection.

The firm generates revenue primarily through contingency-fee arrangements, where legal fees are collected only upon successful settlement or verdict, supplemented by select hourly and public-entity engagements. It markets through a sales-led motion that combines direct case intake (phone and website), in-person consultations across its office footprint, attorney referrals, content marketing via its blog and newsroom, and community engagement such as virtual town halls for wildfire survivors. Notable outcomes include over $3 billion in cumulative fire-litigation recoveries over the last decade, a $243 million Tesla Autopilot verdict (the first wrongful-death Autopilot trial liability finding), and a $1 billion recovery from PG&E for North Bay and Camp Fire public entities.

Singleton Schreiber is owned and operated by its partners, with no disclosed external private equity, venture capital, or institutional investors. Managing Partner Gerald Singleton and Founding Partner Brett Schreiber anchor a senior bench that includes Britt Strottman (who has recovered over $1 billion from PG&E), Chris Rodriguez (former Pillsbury Winthrop Sacramento managing partner), and Brian Colón (Managing Partner of New Mexico offices). The firm has been repeatedly recognized as a Top 100 Civil Plaintiff Trial Lawyers honoree (2020–2024), was named Law360's Product Liability Group of the Year in 2026, and rebranded in 2022 from Singleton Schreiber McKenzie & Scott when McKenzie Scott PC spun off into an independent practice.
