We are pleased to announce that Randy Grossman ’95 has joined Manatt, Phelps & Phillips, LLP, a multidisciplinary, integrated professional services firm. Randy brings nearly three decades of experience in prosecution and private practice to the firm’s Trial, White Collar, and Investigations practice. He will lead the firm’s new San Diego office, representing corporations and individuals in high-stakes government and internal investigations, criminal and civil litigation, and corporate compliance counseling. 

Randy most recently served as the United States Attorney for the Southern District of California, during which time he successfully prosecuted a wide variety of federal crimes committed throughout San Diego and Imperial counties and represented the United States in civil litigation. 

 “Randy is one of the most respected litigators in California and the country,” said Manatt CEO and Managing Partner Donna L. Wilson, “Randy’s background makes him the ideal fit to lead our efforts [in San Diego], and he joins a long line of former U.S. Attorneys, prosecutors and federal public defenders… who are all part of our broader trial-ready team throughout the country.”

Prior to his service as a U.S. Attorney, Randy represented clients in private practice as lead counsel in a wide range of high-stakes government investigations and complex civil and white-collar litigation. Earlier in his career, he served as a Deputy District Attorney for the San Diego County District Attorney’s Office.

This fall, Randy was recognized with California Western’s Distinguished Alumni Award for his service to the community and achievement of excellence in the profession. 

On his new position, Randy remarked, “Manatt’s impressive litigation capabilities, collaborative culture, commitment to San Diego and reputation throughout the state and the country were key drivers in my decision to join. I look forward to working closely with Donna, the rest of the San Diego office and the Firm to help bring the benefits of Manatt’s national footprint and world-class practices to this special city.”
