Rodriguez & Associates is proud to announce Blaine Mustoe as its newest partner. With five prior years of experience at the firm representing the community in challenging tort litigation, Blaine will continue to play a pivotal role in shaping the firmโs success.
With extensive experience across all areas of the firmโs practice, Blaine focuses on complex and catastrophic cases involving auto crashes, premises liability, insurance bad faith, and civil rights violations by law enforcement. His natural ability to connect with clients from all walks of life, understand their stories and determine the best legal approach for their unique situations underscores his successes in the courtroom.
From his first days as a summer law clerk with Rodriguez & Associates, Blaine exhibited the grit and dedication to community that remains the core of the firmโs values. Since rejoining the firm as an attorney fresh out of law school in 2019, he has developed a record of accomplishments, including obtaining a $5,942,524 arbitration verdict after the insurance companyโs top offer was only $280,000. It is through his work that Blaine finds a sense of purpose, utilizing his skills and experience to provide a voice for those who need the most support.
โThe work we do at Rodriguez & Associates is important and necessary, not just for our clients but our community as a whole. We help people overcome tragedy and loss by holding the wrongdoers accountable. Iโm proud to be a part of a team that has had so much success pursuing that remarkable mission.โ

Blaine first met Daniel Rodriguez as a student at Arvin High School when the fellow Arvin Bear came back to speak at their alma mater. This encounter helped spark Blaineโs interest in the law as a profession. He went on to receive his bachelorโs degree in Political Science from the University of California, Berkeley, followed by his J.D. from the University of California Davis School of Law, often working multiple jobs to afford tuition.
โBlaine grew up in a small town where the easiest, most well-trodden paths donโt lead to law degrees. Instead, he made up his mind to get into the best colleges and universities, which he did. He had to choose whether to settle down in the big urban areas or return to the rural area where he was raised. Fortunately for us, he chose to bring his talent and work ethic back to our community,โ shared Daniel Rodriguez, founder and president of Rodriguez & Associates.
Congratulations, Blaine!
