Heller Ehrman Dissolves
Law Firm was involved in one of the first U.S. covered bond issuances
09/26/2008
118-year-old San Francisco-based law firm Heller Ehrman LLP voted to dssolve, leaving many hundreds of lawyers and staff in multiple offices to seek employment elsewhere.
Just a couple of months ago, on August 14, the firm announced formation of a covered bonds practice group. At that time, the firm’s press release noted that Heller Ehrman “has been involved in the issuance of covered bonds by Washington Mutual, one of the two banks that have been issued covered bonds.”
