Business is humming in San Fran­cisco, thank you very much. The technology sector is back, and there’s work from the financial sector.

One firm taking advantage of the situation is Morrison & Foerster, a bicoastal firm that was founded in San Francisco in 1883. Chairman Keith Wetmore lives in New York now, but spends perhaps 40% of his time in his old home base and described the outlook there as “quite positive.”
