Alex Frank is a civil litigator whose practice focuses on public entity liability, civil rights, constitutional, election, and firearms law. He is experienced in California’s state and federal courts, from trial court litigation through appeal, and has argued and won precedent-setting matters before the California Court of Appeal and Ninth Circuit. He was the main associate in Wright v. Beck, 981 F.3d 719 (9th Cir. 2020), a published Ninth Circuit due process and qualified immunity case, and in Nunez v.
