Jacob Polin

Jacob joined Levin Law in 2025 to pursue innovative cases against large corporations engaged in fraud, privacy violations, and other misconduct. He opened its California office.

He has substantial experience pursuing class and mass actions against Fortune 500 companies on behalf of groups of consumers, small businesses, public entities, and Native American tribes. This includes a trial victory in opioid litigation with his former colleagues at Lieff Cabraser Heimann & Bernstein, LLP where they obtained a $230 million recovery for the People of San Francisco, and won the Daily Journal’s "California Lawyers of the Year" award in 2023. In another case brought on behalf of victims of the 2015 Refugio Oil Spill in Santa Barbara, they obtained a $200 million settlement from a large publicly-traded oil company shortly before trial. He also litigated similar cases against other large technology, financial, insurance, oil, and chemical companies.

Jacob enjoys working with clients, experts, and colleagues to learn how different industries function and the conditions that give rise to consumer fraud. He tries to bring a nuanced perspective to that analysis, as an attorney who previously represented large corporations at Quinn Emanuel Urquhart & Sullivan, LLP. In privacy and advertising-related litigation, he also draws on his pre-law school experience as a digital media buyer for technology companies and progressive political campaigns.

Jacob grew up in Oakland, California, where he now practices. In his spare time, he enjoys cycling, hot yoga, and traveling.
