About Alexander Amar
Alexander Amar Kannan earned his J.D. from California Western School of Law in 2011 after beginning his legal studies in 2008. He completed his law degree in San Diego and entered the California legal community soon after. His academic record led into a steady legal career in the state where he is licensed to practice.
Kannan moved quickly into private practice. In 2013 he established Kannan Law Office, Inc., taking on the responsibilities of owner and managing attorney. That step made him responsible for both client work and the daily operations of a small firm. Over the years he has overseen case management, client intake, and the business side of running a law office.
His work has been rooted in California courts and procedures. He is admitted to practice in California and has handled matters through his firm and office locations listed as the Law Offices of Alex Amar Kannan. Since forming his firm he has maintained an independent practice model, one that emphasizes direct representation and hands-on management of client files. He has also been involved in professional associations beginning in 2013 and continuing into the present, which has kept him connected to peers and developments in the local bar community.
Colleagues describe him as methodical and practical in his approach to casework. He tends to take a straightforward posture in client meetings, outlining possible outcomes and the steps needed to reach them. In the office he oversees a small team and directs the allocation of work across cases. That temperament shapes how he handles client matters and communicates expectations.
Outside the courtroom he has balanced the demands of running a law firm with staying current on legal developments. Running a practice has required him to wear multiple hats: attorney, manager, and advisor. Those responsibilities have defined much of his professional life since founding his firm in 2013.
As of 2026 he maintains a private practice in California under the names Kannan Law Office, Inc. and the Law Offices of Alex Amar Kannan. He continues to represent clients through his firm and focuses his practice on client representation in matters handled by his office.
