The Ethic of Ethics


Presented by: Michael Gates, Esq., Huntington Beach City Attorney

Speaker Bio: Michael was elected as Huntington Beach City Attorney on November 4, 2014. Prior to his election, Michael was a partner at a successful law firm in Orange County, serving as a trial attorney and had defended numerous clients in a wide range of legal areas such as: Federal Civil Rights (Excessive Force), Public Entity Law, Government Tort Liability, General Liability, Truck/Automobile Liability, Premises Liability, Products Liability, Professional Liability, Medical Malpractice, and Employment Law. He has represented clients such as the County of Orange, Orange County Sheriff’s Department, Orange County District Attorney, Catholic schools and parishes, various large-scale trucking companies, and various physicians, surgeons, and other medical professionals and hospitals in the Orange County and Los Angeles areas.

Michael’s legal experience began in 2006 when he had the privilege of working as a clerk for the United States Department of Justice engaged in the prosecuting of fraud cases on behalf of the U.S. Government. He also clerked two terms with the Orange County District Attorney’s Office in both the Felony and Major Frauds units, and worked for a federal bankruptcy judge for the Central District of California. Michael also worked as a Certified Law Clerk representing minors before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, where he undertook significant law and motion to protect the due process rights of unrepresented minors in the immigration court system.
