Latitude Opens First West Coast Office in the San Francisco Bay Area, Andrew Cary to Lead

Company Also Opens Offices in Philadelphia & St. Louis; Expansion Takes Company from Four to 10 Offices in Less than a Year

SAN FRANCISCO (April 7, 2022) – In its largest expansion to date, Latitude, a national legal services company that specializes in providing high-end flexible legal talent for corporate legal departments and law firms, has opened an office in the San Francisco Bay Area as well as Philadelphia and St. Louis. With the addition of these three locations, the company has more than doubled its number of offices in the past nine months and now has locations from Boston to San Francisco, Minneapolis to Miami and cities in between. San Francisco is Latitude’s first West Coast office.

“We’re working with more and more legal departments and law firms of all sizes across the country because they recognize the benefits of using peer-level flexible legal talent to fill sophisticated legal roles when, for example, a law firm associate goes out on leave or in-house counsel workload surges,” said Latitude CEO Ross Booher. “Because of our deep roster of attorneys and paralegals with specific in-house and Big Law experience in the tech, healthcare, financial services and manufacturing industries among others, these markets are a natural fit for us.”

With the launch of these new markets, Latitude is expanding its leadership team to include Andrew Cary as partner in the San Francisco Bay Area office. Cary was a partner at Am Law 100 firm Gordon Rees Scully Mansukhani, LLP, where he specialized in representing businesses in a broad range of regulatory compliance and complex litigation matters.

“What attracted me to joining Latitude is the company’s successful track record of working with some of the largest companies and law firms in the world,” Cary said. “The peer-level attorneys we provide enable companies and law firms of all sizes to better serve their clients within budget and without comprising quality of work.”

“Andrew has the deep legal experience and market knowledge we look for when searching for partners to lead our new offices,” Booher added. “He has served in similar roles to the clients we work with and has worked alongside the same high-caliber attorneys we provide.”

Headquartered in Nashville, Tenn., Latitude expanded to Atlanta in 2019, Indianapolis and Miami in 2020, Austin and Boston in 2021, and Minneapolis in early 2022.
