San Francisco-based law firm Gordon & Rees has opened a Denver office.
The office will be overseen by co-managing partners Scott Cook and Miles Scully, both litigators, and will focus primarily on commercial litigation initially, though there are plans to add health care and employment law, among other practice areas, within the first year. The office also will include Amy Darby, a senior associate with experience in complex business disputes, class action matters and other general business litigation. Darby specializes in franchisee/franchisor disputes. She also has experience in trademark litigation, product liability and negligence claims. The firm said the expansion into Denver was driven largely by clients. "The firm has enjoyed strong relationships with a number of clients either domiciled in Colorado or with legal and business needs in the area so this was a natural extension for us," Dion Cominos, managing partner for Gordon & Rees, said in a press release. "We also see many viable possibilities for new business in Colorado and expect to grow our ranks there significantly over the near term. Gordon & Reese has offices in 14 cities, including several in California, as well as in Portland, Oregon; Las Vegas; Phoenix; Dallas; Houston; New York; Uniondale, N.Y.; and Newark, N.J. |
