More About Touré
Touré likes to stay active by working out on a regular basis, playing soccer, hiking, and taking his two puppies on walks. Touré received his BS in Science Health and a minor in sports science from LIU Brooklyn before going on
to complete his Master’s degree in Public Administration with accolades—Pi Alpha—in Public Affairs and
Administration.
Before and during law school, Touré thought he might pursue a career in criminal law and took an
internship as a judicial extern at the San Diego Superior Court in downtown San Diego. However, after
working a few cases and interacting in that environment, I found it depressing. Upon obtaining his California law license, Touré took a job with a San Diego-based firm that represented health care providers in medical malpractice and wrongful death. During the next few years, he developed his skills in defending insurance companies against personal injury and construction defects lawsuits.
Upon joining the Riverside Office of Benthale, McKibbin and McKnight in October of 2023, Touré enjoyed Workers’ Comp defense. The cases are always interesting and sometimes complex. No two cases are the same.
Away from work, Touré enjoys working out, running, hiking, reading, cooking and, of course, soccer.
