Boston-based law firm Foley Hoag has announced the opening a new office in Denver, Colorado, marking the company’s first outpost outside of the Northeast region of the United States. The move is part of Foley Hoag’s continued expansion and commitment to providing legal services to clients in various industries and sectors.
Partners Christopher Mosley and Brooke Yates will lead the Denver office, who joined Foley Hoag from Denver-founded midsize firm Sherman & Howard earlier this year. Mosley and Yates specialize in advising companies on insurance recovery and multi-party commercial litigation, both nationally and internationally.
Foley Hoag’s expansion into Denver comes as the city experiences significant growth in key business areas such as clean energy, healthcare, life sciences, cannabis, and technology. With the addition of a Denver office, Foley Hoag now has five offices, including Boston, New York, Washington, D.C., and Paris, France.
According to Foley Hoag managing partner Jim Bucking, “Denver is a dynamic city with business strengths that align well with our platform.” The move to expand the company’s presence to the West is an exciting step forward in the firm’s continued growth.
Yates echoed Bucking’s sentiment, noting that the team has brought their clients along and expanded their base since moving to the new location. While she declined to name specific clients, Yates noted that the team had seen positive growth and engagement from their regional clients.
