Recently, Philadelphia-based Ballard Spahr Andrews & Ingersoll became the latest Eastern U.S. firm to open an office in Los Angeles, snagging four partners in recent months from Baker Hostetler. Lawyers at the firm expect to recruit in areas such as IP and high-stakes employment litigation. "We have almost 600 lawyers, and a quarter of them are in the West," says Chairman Arthur Makadon. "We're no longer an Eastern firm. The hope is that within a few years, half our lawyers will be in the West."
