About Victoria J.
Victoria J. Lazar is an alum of California Western School of Law and an active member of its alumni association executive committee. Her ties to the school run through volunteer work and alumni events. She keeps a visible presence among recent graduates and faculty. Those connections inform how she approaches professional development and law practice life.
Her early career moved quickly into court work and bar association service. She holds leadership roles in the New Lawyers Divisions of both the Consumer Lawyers of California and the Consumer Lawyers of San Diego. In those posts she runs orientation programs and chairs a public service committee. She also belongs to the Hon. J. Clifford Wallace American Inn of Court, where she participates in discussions that bridge trial practice and ethics. The pattern is clear: Lazar balances courtroom work with structured civic involvement.
Peers describe her as engaged in the local legal community. She has taken responsibility for onboarding new attorneys and shaping public service projects aimed at the consumer bar. Her committee work involves organizing panels, coordinating pro bono opportunities and overseeing orientation for lawyers entering practice. That work has made her a familiar face in San Diego’s consumer-law circles and a regular participant at association meetings and continuing-education events.
Lazar practices at Gomez Trial Lawyers. At the firm she handles litigation-related tasks and takes part in trial preparation. Her practice is grounded in case work that often requires meticulous pretrial planning and close client communication. She is comfortable in court and in collaborative team settings. Outside litigation she remains active in mentoring newer lawyers and in the civic projects run through her committee posts.
Her professional activities reflect a mix of courtroom practice and association leadership. She keeps up ties to legal education through the California Western School of Law alumni network and uses her committee roles to help shape local service offerings. Those dual tracks inform how she manages cases and runs orientation programs for the next generation of consumer attorneys. She currently represents consumers in litigation and handles consumer protection matters in California.
