Strengths

From labor and employment to intellectual property and environmental law to commercial litigation, real estate, and government services, our Los Angeles office is well-known for its strong bench and thought leadership in these and other core areas of the law. Our Los Angeles team’s experience in real estate, municipal law, construction, land use, and zoning law makes us a leader in affordable housing projects and major mixed-use developments. As a global gateway and hub for international trade, our legal professionals in Los Angeles have a deep awareness of the practices and business customs that drive results in the region’s emerging markets, including Asia, India, and Latin America.

Community

We are committed to supporting and positively influencing the communities in which we live and practice, as well as supporting the arts, affordable housing, community-building efforts, and more—as partners with the people and organizations that are making the world a better place today and into the future. For example, to address diversity concerns in the legal profession and create the beginnings of a pipeline toward a more diverse culture in law firms, we re-engineered the traditional “Take Your Child to Work“ day at the firm, inviting students and their parents from Los Angeles’ Southgate neighborhood, some of whom were potential first-generation college students, to visit our office for a day and explore the legal profession as a career.
