WilmerHale established its San Francisco office in 2019 to serve clients ranging from the world’s most innovative technology and life sciences companies to financial institutions and industrial and consumer companies. 

The lawyers who relocated from Palo Alto to start the San Francisco office exemplify the firm’s strengths in securities enforcement; investigations and white collar criminal litigation; emerging company counseling and technology transactions; and government investigations and litigation. The San Francisco office extends the firm’s strengths into this important market and the firm’s reach in California, where we have more than 70 lawyers in Palo Alto and Los Angeles. Our lawyers have unparalleled ability to advise clients on business transactions, regulatory challenges and government investigations, whether by federal or state agencies.
