Strategic Growth Downey Brand has expanded through mergers with Thomas Law Group, growing its footprint and capabilities in natural resources, water, energy, land use, and environmental matters. This presents cross-sell opportunities to clients of the merged firms and potential for bundled services across public agencies, private companies, and nonprofits seeking integrated legal support.

Diverse client Sectors The firm serves financial institutions, agricultural producers, forest products, energy, real estate, construction, public agencies, and nonprofits. This breadth suggests upsell potential across regulated industries and ongoing advisory needs in governance, compliance, and risk management as clients scale or face regulatory changes.

Public Sector Focus With emphasis on serving public corporations and governmental entities in California, there are opportunities to offer specialized government affairs, permitting, and environmental compliance services to municipalities and state agencies seeking expert counsel for large capital projects.

Longstanding Relationships Having client relationships spanning decades and a 95-year track record indicates stability and high client trust. Leverage this to introduce expanded practice areas, legacy planning for estates, and high-value retainer models for ongoing strategic counsel.
