Alejandro Angulo’s practice consists of general business and civil litigation, as well as consulting with clients on pre-litigation and transactional matters. As a business litigator, Alejandro’s experience includes both jury and non-jury trials and prosecuting and defending his clients’ interests in various pre-trial matters, including dispositive motions and injunctive relief.

As a member of Rutan & Tucker’s “Intellectual Property and Technology Practice Group,” he also handles intellectual property litigation and related matters. He has represented a broad range of clients, including high-net worth individuals and publicly held companies, in state and federal courts, administrative proceedings and private arbitrations.

Alejandro supported his undergraduate studies as a professional jazz bassist, performing at various jazz venues throughout Southern California. He was also the principal bassist for the Long Beach State University Orchestra. Currently, he plays upright bass in a jazz group called “The SMART Jazz Execs,” which is a band comprised of local executives. This band raises money to support music and art programs for underprivileged children in Orange County. To learn more about The SMART Jazz Execs and its contribution to the community, click here. Most recently, Alejandro participated with Chris Clark, founder of The Smart Foundation, on the radio show Critical Mass. To listen to the show, click here.

Alejandro was selected by OC Metro Magazine as one of their “40 Under 40” for 2011. He received this honor based on a string of successes he obtained for his clients through his zealous advocacy and his active involvement in various pro bono matters. Through his pro bono work, Alejandro has assisted, among others, individuals involved in domestic disputes and non-profit organizations achieve their community goals.
