Estefan Encarnaci

I’m Estefan M. Encarnación, Esq.—a California attorney admitted to practice in the U.S. District Court, Central District of California. Since founding what is now Defiant Law, I’ve represented 1,000+ clients in matters spanning Personal Injury, Real Estate, Business, and Estate Planning. Clients come to me for clear guidance, strategic advocacy, and straight answers—especially when they’re up against insurance companies, contractors, lenders, or corporate defendants. Before becoming a lawyer, I served as an Infantry Machine Gunner in the United States Marine Corps (2001–2005), 2/7 Marines, Weapons Co., CAAT Plt., including a 2004 deployment to Iraq during Operation Iraqi Freedom. I was honorably discharged and awarded the Purple Heart after sustaining severe combat injuries. That experience informs how I practice law: disciplined preparation, mission focus, and refusing to back down when my client’s rights are on the line. Every case starts with listening. I map out the facts, identify leverage points, and execute a plan that fits your goals—whether that’s a swift resolution or trial. You’ll always know where things stand and why we’re taking the next step. We combine meticulous case work with tenacious advocacy. If you need counsel that will prepare, communicate, and fight for the best outcome available under the facts and the law—we’re ready. Defiant Law delivers bold, client-focused legal representation in solar fraud, home improvement disputes, consumer protection, personal injury, estate planning, and construction law.
