Meet Our Team

Ramtin is not your average entrepreneur; he is an innovator who thrives on pushing boundaries and challenging the status quo. His first steps into the legal funding industry were marked by a commitment to understanding the business from the ground up. He recognized the challenges people faced in this field and dedicated himself to pioneering groundbreaking solutions.

Ramtin and his partners started Rockpoint Legal Funding with limited financial resources and no prior attorney relationships but with a fierce determination to succeed. Remarkably, many of Rockpoint’s largest accounts can be traced back to cold emails or cold calls made from Ramtin’s kitchen.

Ramtin holds two Bachelor’s Degrees from USC: one in Business Administration and Management and one in Policy Planning and Development. He started his career as a precious metals broker, but by the time he was 29, he had launched two businesses together with his brother, Ramin Ghaneeian.

Ramtin remains deeply connected to the community he serves, making sure that Rockpoint actively participates in charitable endeavors and local initiatives that support the community’s growth.

In his spare time, Ramtin maintains an active lifestyle. He loves traveling, exercising and spending quality time with his family and friends.
