How does the Los Angeles corporate and M&A market differ from other major US legal markets?
Los Angeles corporate practice is shaped by its distinct deal ecosystem: entertainment and IP-heavy transactions, significant cross-border M&A activity with Asia-Pacific counterparties, and a dense concentration of private equity and growth-company work that sits outside the traditional New York bulge-bracket pipeline. Lawyers who thrive here tend to carry a broader transaction diet than their New York peers, and that shapes how we evaluate and present candidates.
