Today marks 20 years since the passing of our founder, Johnnie L. Cochran, Jr.
Two decades without his voice—yet his legacy lives on, stronger than ever.

Mr. Cochran wasn’t just one of the greatest trial lawyers in history—he was a man of purpose, passion, and deep conviction. He stood for justice, especially for those who had long been denied it.

From landmark cases like O.J. Simpson, Abner Louima, Geronimo Pratt, and Michael Jackson, to the countless clients who never made headlines, he fought with brilliance, heart, and unshakable integrity.

To know him was to witness greatness wrapped in humility. He mentored, uplifted, and used the law as a tool for change. His spirit is the foundation of everything we do at The Cochran Firm.

Mr. Cochran, we honor you today and every day.
Your work, your words, and your fight continue through us.

Rest in power to the legend, the leader, the man—Johnnie L. Cochran, Jr.
Gone, but never forgotten.

Today attorney James Bryant and The Cochran Firm stood with Black students who came forward about being bullied and racially harassed at Upland’s School. We are proud of the students and their parents for their courage to go public with what has been an ongoing issue for them at their school. Hopefully their example will help other students around the country find their voice to speak up and out about bullying.
