Since opening in 2021, our San Francisco office has served as the centerpiece of Debevoise’s West Coast platform, advising technology companies, private investment firms and other leading businesses on complex corporate, litigation and regulatory matters. With more than 30 lawyers, the office works seamlessly with colleagues across the firm’s offices to provide clients with the multidisciplinary, collaborative approach that defines Debevoise’s global practice.

The office has particular strengths advising clients in the technology, private equity and asset management sectors. Lawyers in San Francisco counsel clients on mergers and acquisitions, private equity transactions, fund formation, white collar and regulatory defense matters, internal investigations, data strategy and cybersecurity, intellectual property disputes and complex commercial litigation.

The San Francisco office is also committed to serving the local community through an active pro bono practice. Lawyers in the office partner with Bay Area legal services organizations and community groups on matters ranging from immigration and civil rights to nonprofit governance and access to justice initiatives.

Located in the heart of San Francisco’s Financial District, the office serves clients throughout the Bay Area, across the West Coast and around the world.
