LOS ANGELES, Feb. 20, 2026— Arias Sanguinetti is proud to announce that founding partners Mike Arias and Arnold Wang, and partner Sahar Malek, have once again been selected for inclusion in the prestigious 2026 Southern California Super Lawyers list. This distinction recognizes attorneys who have attained a high degree of peer recognition and professional achievement, and it is awarded to only 5% of attorneys in the region each year.
“I’m incredibly honored that Arnold, Sahar and I were named Super Lawyers once again,” said Mike Arias. “Our mission is all about putting our clients at the heart of everything we do, and we’re dedicated to fighting for their rights and ensuring they get the justice they deserve.”
Mr. Arias has made a name for himself on the Southern California Super Lawyers list every year since 2009. His impressive record includes resolving numerous class actions and mass plaintiff matters across a range of issues, such as consumer rights, environmental matters, product liability and sexual assault. Notably, he played a crucial role in achieving a historic $852 million settlement, the largest known settlement in a sexual abuse case in U.S. history
Similarly, Mr. Wang has been consistently recognized in the Super Lawyers list from 2015 to 2017 and again from 2019 to the present, thanks to his exemplary work representing plaintiffs in class actions, complex litigation, toxic torts, personal injury cases and employment matters. His legal expertise has led to significant outcomes, often resulting in multi-million-dollar settlements in some of the firm’s most prominent cases.
Adding to this notable roster, Ms. Malek has earned a place on the Southern California Super Lawyers Rising Stars list from 2018 to 2023 and has recently been elevated to the Southern California Super Lawyers list from 2024 to the present. Her advocacy in sexual abuse, personal injury and employment litigation has garnered widespread recognition. Ms. Malek has been instrumental in securing numerous six-figure and seven-figure settlements and verdicts for her clients.
