Read Time: 1 min

Members Kere Tickner and Michelle McCliman (Irvine) were profiled by Law360 on May 9, 2023, on their recent move to McGlinchey. They discuss the factors that contributed to their move, including culture, people, and growth strategy.

“It seemed like they were expanding further into California and they wanted to expand to other venues, so it seemed like a good fit,” she [Tickner] said.”This was a long process that we didn’t just fly into, and we liked their idea of how to grow a law firm and their growth plan. They don’t just chase after all these new legal fields; instead, they’re smart about it and have a good approach which I thought was a good fit for us and what we wanted to do.”
