Overview
Our clients include a number of Silicon Valley’s largest national and multinational corporations and other large US business interests as well as new ventures, leading real estate developers and brokerages, cutting-edge technology companies, healthcare and other service providers, banking and financial institutions, public agencies, local government, and individuals. In response to rapid economic growth over the past decade in the San Joaquin Valley, in recent years, we opened offices in Merced and Modesto.
The hallmark of our client service is responsiveness. We return phone calls quickly, meet deadlines, and provide frequent updates during a matter. Our clients are based in California and across the nation, and they rely on our deep understanding of local issues as well as state and federal laws affecting their daily business decisions. Our lawyers take a practical approach and develop long-term, strategic partnerships with clients, combining innovative thinking and resourcefulness to solve current problems and prevent future legal obstacles.
Our firm boasts a number of leading practice groups:
