Evan Granowitz: The apple does not fall far from the tree

Granowitz’ grandfather happens to be the 103rd Justice of the Supreme Court of California, the late Justice Marcus Kaufman. Prior to his assignment to the Supreme Court, he served as an Associate Justice of the California Court of Appeals for 17 years. He was then appointed as the Supreme Court Justice from March 1987 up to his retirement in January 1990.

Evan Granowitz had only fond memories of grandfather. “He was our adored ‘Zaidi’,” he said. “His love for us knew no boundaries.”

Apart from sparking propensity, Justice Kaufman also influenced Granowitz’s drive toward seeking excellence in the profession. Kaufman epitomized the highest level of top brass legal practice—so much that they named two awards after him, namely, the Kaufman Campbell Award and the Marcus Kaufman Jurisprudence Award. These awards are given to judges who have demonstrated the highest standards of judicial excellence in the pursuit of justice while exemplifying courtesy, integrity, wisdom, and impartiality.

“We were especially fortunate to have inherited his passion and calling for law,” Evan Granowitz said. In spite of Justice Kaufman’s worldly loss, Granowitz vows to continue his quest for legal excellence by stepping up his practice to match that of his grandfather’s—ushering in a new generation of first-rate law practice.
