PHILOSOPHY AND HISTORY

Irsfeld, Irsfeld & Younger was founded in 1908 by James B. Irsfeld (1880-1966). The lawyers in our relatively small firm have more to offer than exceptional academic credentials; they have significant experience in their practice areas. Our several litigation attorneys are trial lawyers who have cumulatively handled approximately 100 trials in their careers. Our transactional attorneys have handled numerous corporate formations, public securities offerings, business acquisitions and mergers, general and limited partnership formations, estate planning and tax planning.

Our long history can be explained by a philosophy that is unique among law firms. We recognize that every corporate or individual client has a unique background and unique objectives. In order to best represent a client's interests, we pay close attention to a client's business environment and practical objectives. While documenting sophisticated business deals or handling trials is part of our practice, our goal is to foster long-term relationships where clients feel free to call to discuss the legal aspects of daily issues that arise in their business lives. We attribute our almost century-long history to our people-oriented tradition of serving clients.

In 1984, the firm moved to its present offices in Glendale, California, which is approximately 20 minutes from downtown Los Angeles. Our geographic location gives us easy access to all Southern California courts. The firm regularly handles matters in Orange, San Diego, San Bernardino, Riverside and Ventura Counties as well as in Northern California. Over the years, we have been retained by clients located throughout the United States to handle their litigation and transactional needs
