He was disbarred in 2022 after accusations of defrauding clients.

1961

1964

In August 1964, Girardi married his first wife Karen Weitzul.

1970

In 1970, Girardi became the first attorney in the state of California to win a $1 million-plus award for a medical malpractice case.

Girardi has handled major cases against the former Lockheed Corp (now the Lockheed Martin Corp.), Pacific Gas & Electric Co, Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority, and Hollywood's seven major movie studios.

In a case against Pacific Gas & Electric, the utility company agreed to pay $460 million to 650 residents of the desert community of Hinkley, California.

The residents blamed incidents of cancer and other diseases on contaminated water leaked from a gas pumping station.

He has appeared in several episodes of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alongside his wife.

2003

In 2003, Girardi was inducted into the Trial Lawyer Hall of Fame by the California State Bar.

According to his website, he is a Member of the Board of Directors and former President of the International Academy of Trial Lawyers.

He was also the first trial lawyer to be appointed to the California Judicial Council, the policymaking body of the state courts.

Girardi was known for his work in Democratic party politics, donating millions of dollars to campaigns, playing a role in fundraising events, and giving advice to governors regarding judicial appointments.

2018

Kathy died in May 2018.

2020

In December 2020, a federal judge in Chicago froze Girardi's assets, citing that he had "misappropriated at least $2 million in client funds that were due to the families of those killed" by the Boeing 737 MAX Lion Air Flight 610 crash in Indonesia.

No one from the Girardi Keese law firm, including Girardi, appeared at the first bankruptcy hearing, in January 2021, for two Chapter 7 involuntary bankruptcy petitions filed in December 2020.

In March 2021 the Los Angeles Times reported that Girardi had been sued more than 100 times.

Multiple complaints had been filed against him with the California State Bar.

Nevertheless, his Bar license had remained pristine, it was alleged, due to improper relationships between Girardi and Bar officials.

Many of the Bar complaints involved alleged financial malfeasance, including allegations of theft by two dozen women who won $17 million in a lawsuit claiming that hormone replacement therapy caused their cancer along with the alleged misappropriation of millions of dollars in a burn victim lawsuit.

On March 9, 2021, the State Bar of California changed Girardi's status to "not eligible to practice law in [California]".

On June 1, 2022, a court ordered Girardi disbarred and to pay $2,300,000 in restitution, and the State Bar of California changed Girardi's status to "Disbarred".

A February 2023 internal investigation conducted on the State Bar of California by an outside firm found that its employees had accepted gifts, travel, meals, and other items of value from Girardi & Keese, influencing the State Bar to block complaints against the law firm.

The Bar disclosed that, across four decades, during which it had received 205 complaints against Girardi, the Bar took no action against the attorney and dismissed all cases.

In November 2020, Erika Girardi announced the couple had separated and that she had filed for divorce.

In February 2021, Girardi was placed in a conservatorship due to short-term memory loss, and in March 2021 he was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.
