Del Mar Heights

The firm's downtown San Diego office opened in 1986.  In 2001, we expanded our presence in  San Diego County by opening an office in the heart of the County's high technology corridor, Del Mar Heights.  By Fall 2006, the Del Mar Heights office had almost tripled in size and moved to a new office building (the firm's first office to obtain signage rights for having its name atop the building). 

Attorneys in our Del Mar Heights and downtown San Diego offices advise clients on matters involving litigation, labor and employment, banking and finance, real estate, intellectual property, technology and corporate and securities law.  Our client base is diverse, ranging from global financial institutions and mature publicly traded corporations to start-ups.  Clients include some of San Diego's most established businesses, prominent companies in the emerging technology, life sciences and communications industries, and national and international companies.

The firm's practice groups are divided between the two offices based on considerations that focus on client needs.  Currently, approximately 50 attorneys practice in Del Mar Heights and approximately 30 attorneys practice in the downtown office.  Together, the two offices offer San Diego County clients a full range of legal services and are among the fastest growing offices in San Diego.

The Practice Group leaders of our Real Estate and Intellectual Property (co-chair) practice groups are in the Del Mar Heights office, as is the leader of our Hispanic/Latino Team.  An article about the co-chair of our IP group, which was published on LawCrossing.com in March, 2007, can be found here.   

Reflecting the firm's national reputation, both offices have a strong team of trial lawyers involved in a wide range of matters, including many high-profile cases.  The San Diego offices also include a strong and rapidly growing corporate practice.  We frequently advise clients on complex mergers and acquisitions, private and public financing transactions, executive compensation and SEC compliance matters.  The labor and employment attorneys in San Diego are a key part of the firm's nationally recognized Labor and Employment practice.  San Diego also boasts a rapidly growing litigation and transactional intellectual property practice which focuses on the technology, life sciences, and communications industries located in our "backyard" and elsewhere in the state.  The San Diego offices include highly respected attorneys in the areas of land use, white collar crime, and First Amendment and media issues.
