Hanson Bridgett Continues San Diego Expansion, Adds Appellate Partner Arezoo Jamshidi

SAN DIEGO – Aug. 4, 2025 Hanson Bridgett LLP is pleased to announce that Arezoo Jamshidi has joined the firm as a partner in its appellate practice, marking the firm’s continued expansion in the San Diego market.

Jamshidi brings more than a decade of experience advising litigation teams on appellate strategy and issue preservation through all stages of trial in state and federal courts. She previously led the appellate practice group at Haight Brown & Bonesteel LLP, where she also served as San Diego office managing partner and chair of the firm’s artificial intelligence committee.

“Arezoo brings a valuable combination of appellate insight and firm leadership experience in San Diego,” said Stuart Eisler, Hanson Bridgett’s San Diego market leader. “She will be a tremendous resource for our clients and a trusted advisor as we continue to thoughtfully add standout legal talent who strengthen our capabilities.”

Jamshidi is the second partner to join the firm in recent weeks, following the addition of veteran health care litigator Natalie V. Mueller, a former principal counsel for University of California San Diego Health.

She is a certified specialist in appellate law with experience in complex business litigation, employment, public entity litigation, environmental law, construction law, and probate litigation.

“Arezoo’s leadership in high-stakes appellate advocacy and demonstrated commitment to elite client service make her an ideal fit for Hanson Bridgett,” Managing Partner Kristina Lawson said. “As we navigate a rapidly changing and technologically complex legal landscape, she’s at the forefront of delivering future-ready solutions for our clients in San Diego and beyond."

Jamshidi earned her undergraduate degree from Berry College and her law degree from the University of Baltimore School of Law.
