Atlanta law firm to absorb Weston Benshoof
Law Firm News
Alston & Bird LLP is putting its mark on California, with plans to absorb in September the Los Angeles law firm Weston Benshoof Rochefort Rubalcava & MacCuish LLP and its 83 attorneys. Weston Benshoof is known for its environmental and land use practices, but it also litigates in real estate, construction, and water resources issues.
Atlanta-based Alston & Bird also said Wednesday it has opened a 12-attorney office in Palo Alto. The addition of the new lawyers in California will bring the total number of attorneys at Alston & Bird to more than 900.
"Alston & Bird's continued growth is the result of our increasing national and international client base for whom our strategic approach is simple -- We will be where our clients are and need us to be," said Richard R. Hays, Alston & Bird's managing partner, in a prepared statement. "While Alston & Bird has been representing clients on the West Coast for years, teaming up with some of the best talent in Los Angeles and Silicon Valley gives us stronger footing in a number of key practice areas that will benefit our clients and better serve their needs."
