Los Angeles Business Journal Names Hanson Bridgett a 2025 Most Admired Law Firm

We’re proud to share that the Los Angeles Business Journal has named Hanson Bridgett one of its “Most Admired Law Firms” for 2025.

This recognition comes at a meaningful moment for our L.A. office. After marking a decade of growth and success in Southern California, we doubled our local footprint earlier this year with a move into a new space at The CaEdison building downtown.

According to the Los Angeles Business Journal supplement, Hanson Bridgett “believes that staying true to its values is critical during a very volatile time in our country and in the L.A. region specifically,” and remains “dedicated to reflecting its core belief that law firms have a responsibility to help their fellow community members.”

That commitment showed up when it mattered most. When federal ICE raids affected California employers earlier this year, our legal teams acted quickly — publishing legal alerts, hosting a widely-attended open-access webinar, and ensuring resources were available to clients and the broader business community. During the destructive Southern California wildfires, we mobilized attorneys focused on insurance recovery to support relief and community recovery efforts on a pro bono basis.

We are also standing firm in our commitment to DEI and inclusion at a time when many organizations are stepping back. We believe that staying true to our values is essential in volatile moments, and that inclusion drives better outcomes for our people, our clients, and the legal profession.

“This recognition underscores the achievements of our Los Angeles team and reaffirms our broader vision,” explained Market Leader Raffi Zerounian. “As we continue to grow and deepen our roots across California, we remain equally committed to meaningful community engagement and the highest standards for our law practice.”
