Boutique Northern California Real Estate and Litigation Team Joins Scale LLP
San Francisco, CA (PRWEB) June 15, 2023 -- Scale LLP, the full-service, national law firm built by former Silicon-Valley tech GCs to serve high-growth companies, announced today that Robin Shofner, Erica Shepard, and Whitney Joubert are joining the firm to bolster its growing Real Estate and Litigation practices.
Prior to joining Scale, the team worked together for over a decade at boutique law firm MOBO Law, LLP, serving clients in Northern California and Nevada. Shofner brings 13 years of experience specializing in Real Estate and Litigation and is a graduate of UCLA School of Law. Shepard started her career at Heller Ehrman. She brings 15 years of experience with a Masters of Law in Taxation and is a Certified Specialist in Estate Planning, Trust and Probate Law. Joubert has a decade of experience as a Certified Paralegal and has worked closely with Shofner and Shepard to build an expanding practice.
“We’re thrilled to welcome this amazing team to Scale LLP,” said Scale LLP Managing Partner David Reidy. “Robin, Erica and Whitney are all well-known to us from our extensive real estate and litigation work in Northern California. We knew their experience, connections, and reputation in the market would elevate our growing Real Estate and Litigation practices, and we couldn't be happier to welcome them to the firm."
The trio was drawn to the firm’s highly collaborative nature and its focus on serving growth-oriented companies and entrepreneurs who are increasingly in need of real estate, litigation, and trusts and estates support. "At Scale, I saw the opportunity to expand our practice as part of a full-service, national firm with attorneys who are incentivized to proactively collaborate and support each other,” Shofner said. “It is inspiring to be able to join a firm of like-minded attorneys who are all dedicated to serving their clients with the highest level of practical, business-oriented legal advice, first and foremost.”
The all-female team was also attracted to Scale’s culture of promoting the success of women in law, with 40% of the firm’s Partners and Counsel composed of female attorneys. “The firm’s mission of building a better law firm for clients and attorneys, particularly by changing the status quo of traditional law firm hierarchical structures, was especially appealing to me,” says Shepard. “I’m excited by the opportunity to build a thriving practice alongside highly accomplished, growth-oriented colleagues and clients.”
