Celebrating 5 Years of F&L’s San Francisco Office
We celebrated our San Francisco office’s 5 year anniversary at AT&T Park on October 1st. It was a fantastic day (despite the result!) and we certainly celebrated in style!
Despite working with Bay Area companies for over 15 years, it was 5 years ago that Melissa Harkcom relocated from the UK to set up the San Francisco office. She represented the F&L international team on the ground so clients had a friendly face to call upon.
Since then, Melissa and the team in San Francisco have worked with hundreds of companies as they expanded their operations into more than 30 countries worldwide.
As a firm, we are so proud to represent some of the biggest names – and smallest start-ups – that started life in the Bay Area.
