About the Firm

Built on a Simple
Conviction:
Clients Deserve
a True Partner.

Higgs Fletcher & Mack® was built on a simple conviction: that clients deserve more than legal advice — they deserve a true partner. For 85 years, that conviction has shaped everything we do, from the talent we recruit to the way our attorneys collaborate across practice groups to deliver results that matter.

Based in San Diego, we have grown into a firm of 72 dedicated attorneys spanning 23 practice groups and serving clients across 19 industries. Our reach extends from local matters to national and international cases, yet our commitment to each client remains the same: trusted counsel, deep expertise, and relentless advocacy.

We are equally proud of the role we play in our community. Through programs, pro bono work, and civic engagement — including board leadership at organizations like the Union of Pan Asian Communities and Rotary — HFM attorneys invest their time and talents far beyond the courtroom. Our community is not just where we work. It is who we are.
