Protecting Injury Victims for Nearly 40 Years Meet Philip W. Ganong, Esq.
After earning his Juris Doctorate from University of California Hastings College of the Law, Philip W. Ganong, Esq. began practicing in 1979. Since then, he has been an active member of many bar associations. He has been recognized as one of the Best Lawyers of America and included in the Top 100 Lawyers: National Trial Lawyers. He is also the former president of the Kern County Bar Association.
His practice, Ganong Law, is a personalized boutique law firm. Originally established in Bakersfield, CA., Mr. Ganong accepts and tries federal and state cases throughout the state of California. Our team only takes cases for which we believe we are the best possible fit.
We are able to give you personalized attention. Mr. Ganong's first priority is identifying the client's harm.
In injury cases, this involves understanding the nature of the client's injury, what it will take to recover from that injury, and what his client's physical limitations will be.
Mr. Ganong believes this allows the client to understand their injuries, the importance of medical treatment, and what their future may look like. The client, as the most important member of the trial team, will understand the value of the case and the manner in which it should be presented to a jury.
In cases involving only economic harm, Mr. Ganong's degree in International Economics from UC Berkeley and his experience in the presentation and trial in economic harm cases allows both the client and jury to reach maximum potential recovery.
Secure Maximum Compensation Following Your Injury
Following an injury, Mr. Ganong's first focus is your recovery. His team works with several types of experts, ranging from orthopedic spine surgeons and neuropsychologists to vocational rehabilitation and economists, to help you get the treatment you need and evaluate how your injury will affect you for the rest of your life. From the start of your case to the settlement or trial, we will:
- Pinpoint exactly what happened, how it occurred, and how it will affect you
- Help you get an accurate medical diagnosis and the appropriate care
- Determine the value of your claim and help you file a claim
- Answer your questions and explain your legal options
- Develop a successful legal strategy
Throughout his career, Mr. Ganong has represented victims of sexual harassment and motor vehicle accidents, as well as families affected by wrongful death, with highly successful outcomes.
All legal services are contingency-based. You do not have to pay anything until we recover the compensation you deserve.

Our Promise to Clients
Our job is to investigate the nature of your injury: how it occurred, how it affects you physically and mentally, and how much care you will need now and in the future. We do not settle cases where we don't understand the extent of your injury, and we do not settle for less than your case is worth. Mr. Ganong
Diverse Practice Areas
Medical Cannabis Representation
Medical marijuana is a swiftly growing industry. Oftentimes, it is difficult for our clients to keep up with the ever-changing legal considerations in the industry. Mr. Ganong and his team understand the laws and regulations surrounding the business and represent various parties in the industry, including:
- Cultivators
- Manufacturers
- Distributors
- Retailers
Because the state has recently permitted certain activities and changed laws surrounding the industry, our firm is here to help ensure that your rights are protected. We have tried various cannabis-related cases in court with highly successful results, and are one of the few firms in the area with a broad understanding of these types of cases.

Phil helped me when no one else would. Everything he said he’d do, he did. He went to bat for me against some heavy-hitting lawyers and got the job done. He’s a real honest lawyer. Corey McClendon
