Bullivant Houser Bailey PC is a dynamic and innovative business and complex litigation law firm of more than 140 attorneys with six offices on the West Coast. Founded in 1938, the firm maintains offices in Portland, Oregon; Seattle and Vancouver, Washington; Sacramento and San Francisco, California; and Las Vegas, Nevada. In addition, to better serve our clients in China, Bullivant has formed alliances with several of China's largest law firms.
Chambers USA "America's Leading Lawyers for Business" singled out Bullivant as a "West Coast litigation powerhouse," due to our extensive courtroom experience and ability to achieve early, favorable, and cost-effective results on behalf of clients, ranging from small businesses to Fortune 100 corporations. In addition to commercial litigation, the firm also excels in a wide range of domestic and international business transactions, including corporate finance and securities, public and private offerings, Exchange Act reporting and SEC compliance, formation and governance, mergers and acquisitions, taxation, real estate, franchising, creditor's rights, bankruptcy, estate planning, and intellectual property including patent prosecution. We maintain a reputation as a nationally-recognized firm with extensive experience in products liability counseling and litigation, as well as complex insurance coverage and defense work.
At Bullivant, delivering exceptional service to all clients is among our highest priorities. When it comes to our clients, we strive to know their business and understand their goals. To achieve this objective, we use a collaborative team approach. Every matter is appropriately staffed with a diverse team of lawyers and professionals who have the necessary level of experience for that situation; clients find our team approach favorable and cost-effective. Because our Firm culture encourages cross-office collaboration and team building, team leaders can quickly draw on significant talent from attorneys across all offices. All our attorneys and professionals are well trained on and understand the principles of exceptional client service.
Bullivant attorneys have graduated from top law schools across the nation and have impressive academic credentials. Many of our attorneys also have work experience and graduate degrees outside the legal field which benefits our clients by providing a unique perspective to their challenges. What brought these attorneys to our firm and what keeps them here is Bullivant's commitment to providing top-notch client service in a diverse environment. This year, Bullivant was recognized as a Washington State Top Ten firm for diversity. In 2008 MultiCultural Law Magazine again named Bullivant as one of the "Top 100 Law Firms for Diversity," and one of the "Top 100 Law Firms for Women." Outside the office, we support our attorneys and professionals who are involved in community organizations and civic projects they are passionate about. These activities include leadership positions in charitable and professional organizations as well as pro bono projects and activities.
