She has been recognized by Best Lawyers since 1995.

“We continue to believe – as we have believed for more than 25 years – that recognition by one’s peers is the most meaningful form of praise in the profession,” said Steven Naifeh, President of Best Lawyers. “We would like to congratulate Pam Duffy on being selected as the ‘San Francisco Best Lawyers Litigation – Land Use & Zoning Lawyer of the Year’ for 2014.”

Alan Gennis is honored as a “Top 25 Real Estate Transactional Lawyers” by the Daily Journal.

Alan is highlighted for his work on the 49ers new stadium project, a “$1.3 billion, 68,500 seat venue . . . complicated transaction . . . at the core was the challenge of finding what Alan calls a ‘win-win’ for both the team and the city.”

“It is the first professional football stadium constructed in California in 50 years . . . getting the city behind it is not the easiest thing . . . we needed a way to bring all of the constituencies together to reach an agreement,” said Alan.

Congratulations, Alan, on your well-deserved recognition.
