Hossein Berenji, founder and lead attorney of Berenji Divorce & Family Law Group, has been selected to the 2027 Lawdragon 500 Leading Family Lawyers, a national guide recognizing 500 attorneys across the United States for their work in divorce, child custody, property division, and other complex family law matters. The recognition places Berenji among a limited group of family law practitioners identified from across the country and reflects more than 25 years spent representing clients in sophisticated and often highly contested California family law cases.
Lawdragon, a legal media company, has published guides identifying leading U.S. attorneys since 2005. Honorees for the 2027 Lawdragon 500 Leading Family Lawyers are selected through submissions and nominations, independent journalistic research, editorial vetting, and review informed by legal peers. The company reports that its editorial team reviews tens of thousands of attorneys annually across its various legal guides, drawing on 35 years of legal industry research and a research team with more than 100 years of combined experience in legal journalism and attorney research. Lawdragon generally considers attorneys with at least 10 years of legal experience, with limited exceptions. The guide recognizes attorneys whose work involves significant legal and personal issues, including divorce, custody, financial disputes, and other consequential family law matters.
Berenji practices exclusively family law, with a focus on complex California divorce litigation. His experience includes high-net-worth and high-asset divorce involving substantial marital estates, complex property characterization and valuation, business ownership and valuation disputes, financial investigations and asset tracing, contested spousal support and attorney fee proceedings, and high-conflict custody litigation. His matters have included uncovering more than $20 million in previously undisclosed financial transactions, handling disputes involving foreign real estate valued between $5 million and $7 million, obtaining a $50,000 monthly support order, and securing substantial interim attorney fee awards. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes, and these examples do not identify confidential clients.
"Being recognized among Lawdragon's 500 Leading Family Lawyers is a meaningful honor, particularly alongside attorneys whose work has had such an impact on the field of family law," said Hossein Berenji, founder of Berenji Divorce & Family Law Group. "After more than 25 years of practice, I've seen how important experienced legal representation can be when families are facing difficult decisions involving their finances, their children, and their futures. This recognition is also a reflection of the dedication and work of our entire team."
Berenji remains active in legal commentary and professional education. He has published commentary in the Daily Journal and authored an article in the September 2026 issue of Los Angeles Lawyer addressing artificial intelligence and attorney-client privilege. He has participated in Beverly Hills Bar Association continuing legal education programming and has contributed to public discussions concerning divorce, financial disputes, and emerging issues affecting family law.
"High-asset divorce cases frequently involve far more than determining how property should be divided," Berenji said. "They require careful financial analysis, a clear litigation strategy, and an understanding of the long-term consequences of every decision."
