David Alden Erikson

Our team is led by David Alden Erikson, a California attorney who has represented a broad range of clients, from individuals and small businesses to Fortune 500 companies. He spent six years focused on commercial litigation at a leading global law firm, before founding our boutique practice in 2004.

Mr. Erikson now heads our group of experienced lawyers, who counsel clients in business litigation and transactions, new ventures, intellectual property, real estate, and internet, fashion and art law. Although a smaller company, we have the experience, expertise and resources you would expect in a larger firm. Indeed, our size allows us to remain innovative and flexible – which is how we’ve gained a track record for taking on larger law firms and winning.

Visit our offices in Larchmont Village in Los Angeles, and you’ll soon discover that you’re dealing with a friendly team of humans, not a boardroom full of suits. Yet crucially, we combine that local level of interaction with a national level of recognition. We work with a targeted and steadfast intensity, and achieve exceptional results for our clients by being smarter, nimbler and more creative than conventional firms.

As our economy and our creative fields have grown in complexity, business know-how has become essential in law. Because Mr. Erikson was an entrepreneur himself,  we know to focus on practical matters – such as how to get the best results at a fair and clear cost. Whether it is a legal dispute or a business opportunity that brings a client to our door, we invariably become an integral part of their business. Whether working with the lone designer or with or a large corporation, we forge lasting relationships that are the backbone of our practice.
