California Powerhouse: Greenberg Glusker
May 26, 2015 – ArticleLaw360, Los Angeles (May 26, 2015, 7:52 PM ET) -- A modestly sized firm with only one office, Greenberg Glusker Fields Claman & Machtinger LLP didn’t expect to provide representation in one of the most salacious storylines of 2014. But after highly publicized racist remarks made by former Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling, Greenberg Glusker deftly handled the team’s recordbreaking $2 billion sale by his wife, a longtime client.
The Sterling disputes required the bulk of the firm’s resources: about two-thirds of its 81 attorneys at any given time, and practices including trust and estate planning, real estate, probate, corporate, sports, licensing and intellectual property. Greenberg Glusker’s success in the six-day sale of the Clippers and the biggest media battle of 2014 has earned it a spot on Law360’s California Powerhouses list.
