Carter West is a progressive, boutique law firm. We represent companies (both established and emerging), entrepreneurs and investors. Our team of former big-firm lawyers is committed to providing clients with expert, innovative and practical advice. We are nimble, creative and cost-effective when we approach complex and demanding legal transactions. You won’t find inexperienced junior associates or over-staffed transaction teams at Carter West, but you will find lawyers with cutting-edge legal tools and effective solutions for clients looking to maximize value. At Carter West we’re specialists in, and passionate about, corporate, securities and real estate law. It’s all we do. Our attorneys have represented many of Silicon Valley’s and the Central Valley’s leading investors, entrepreneurs, real estate developers, and companies at various stages of their growth, from idea to exit. When matters arise outside of our areas of focus, we turn to our extensive network of practice area specialists. Unlike larger firms, we only bring in specialists because they are the right fit for the client and the transaction, not because we are obligated to use the resources within our firm.
