Atlanta-based Alston & Bird has continued its West Coast expansion by grabbing four of DLA Piper’s lawyers, including two partners, to join the firm’s commercial litigation group in Los Angeles.

Jeffrey Rosenfeld, who helped DLA Piper found its Los Angeles office in 2001, has served as the global legal giant’s local managing partner, head of the office’s litigation practice and chair of its lateral partner hiring program. He is joining Alston & Bird with partner Grant Alexander, counsel Rachel Lowe and senior associate Sean Crain.
