On the heels of dozens of lateral hires, Cozen O’Connor has opened a new office, its 28th, in Vancouver, British Columbia. But it’s doing so with an existing partner of the firm.

Lisa Myers is relocating her practice from Seattle to Vancouver, where she will focus on subrogation, recovery and commercial litigation. Cozen O’Connor‘s other international offices, in Toronto and London, also focus on those practice areas, and having a Vancouver presence will allow that group to expand, managing partner Vincent McGuinness said.
