History & Mission
"We have been in the South Bay Area of Los Angeles County since 1941,
earning the respect of the community, our clients and our peers."

The law firm of DuRoss & DuRoss was founded in 1977 when Daniel V. DuRoss joined his father in practice in Manhattan Beach, California. Joseph C. DuRoss had been in practice in the Manhattan Beach community since 1941. Joseph passed away in 1991 leaving a legacy of excellence in legal practice, coupled with its responsive and professional service to clients.

Over the years the firm had a general practice which has steadily evolved into a practice specializing in WILLS, TRUSTS, ESTATE PLANNING, PROBATE and ELDER LAW.

At DuRoss & DuRoss the practice of law is focused on service. Daniel DuRoss strives to provide legal services when they are needed even if it means working on weekends or late into the night. Dedication to excellence and personal service is what we are about. These are the qualities that we are known for and these are the qualities that we as a firm, pledge to maintain.
