Haynes and Boone OC Picks Up 5 More Partners

Dallas-based law firm Haynes and Boone LLP is bulking up its Orange County office, with corporate practice group member Martin Florman among five partner additions since September.

“The more I learned, the more exceptional I found the firm,” Florman told the Business Journal on Feb. 15.

Florman, an M&A, venture capital and corporate partner, joined directly from Buchalter, where he spent more than 16 years in management.

Paul Tobin, also a corporate practice group partner, joined Haynes and Boone OC in early January, like Florman coming from Buchalter.

Partners Elizabeth Weldon and Kevin Crisp, both litigators, joined the firm in Costa Mesa late last year.

Transactional partner David Hengstler joined the Orange County office in Costa Mesa in late February.

The additions boost Haynes and Boone’s local practice to 31 attorneys; it ranks No. 31 in a four-way tie on this week’s list of largest law firms in OC.

The firm counts over 40 major practice areas, with a focus on energy, technology, financial services and private equity.

High Profile

Florman, an Orange County native, has more than 30 years of experience.

He represents global, middle market and emerging growth companies in general corporate matters, finance, mergers and acquisitions, complex corporate restructuring matters and intellectual property transactional matters.

His clients include healthcare companies, music and technology companies, and insurance agencies and brokers.

“This office has some very high-profile clients,” said Florman, a North Tustin resident, though he declined to discuss clients by name.

Haynes and Boone has 16 offices across the country, as well as in Shanghai and Mexico City. In total it has about 700 attorneys.

At Buchalter, Florman was a member of the firm’s board of directors and was the managing shareholder of its Orange County office.
