Neo Khuu brings to Pine Tillett LLP a wealth of experience in high-impact litigation, appellate advocacy, and public service, spanning diverse areas of law.
At Singleton Schreiber LLP’s Motion, Writs & Appeals practice group, Mr. Khuu honed his skills in complex appellate litigation, handling high-stakes cases in both state and federal courts. This experience built upon his earlier clerkships with the California Court of Appeal, the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of California (for Chief Judge Lawrence J. O’Neill and Judge Dale A. Drozd), and the Los Angeles Superior Court—positions that provided him with invaluable insights into judicial decision-making at various levels across a wide spectrum of legal disciplines.
As a Deputy Attorney General in the California Attorney General’s Office, Mr. Khuu successfully represented state agencies and, notably, defended the state’s K-12 schools mask mandate during the COVID-19 pandemic. As a staff attorney at the Legal Aid Foundation of Los Angeles, he advocated for underserved communities, particularly through impact litigation defending the civil rights of the unhoused in Skid Row.
Mr. Khuu graduated from UCLA School of Law with a specialization in Critical Race Studies. As a law student, he was the co-editor-in-chief of the Pacific Basin Law Journal, the chief articles editor of the Dukeminier Journal of Sexual Orientation and Gender Law, and the co-chair of the Let’s Go Liberation Clinic. His student comment, “Obergefell v. Hodges: Kinship Formation, Interest Convergence, and the Future of LGBTQ Rights,” was published in the UCLA Law Review.
While working as a tutor, Mr. Khuu earned his B.A. in Political Science with a minor in Chinese Studies from the University of California, San Diego.
