Two Partners Named Among Top 100 Lawyers in Los Angeles

Two Latham partners have been named by the Los Angeles Business Journal among its 2024 Top 100 Lawyers, honored for their demonstrated exceptional legal skills and achievements across the full spectrum of responsibility, exemplary leadership, and contributions to the Los Angeles community at large. Litigation partner Joshua Hamilton and corporate partner Tana Ryan have long records of client successes in their practices that were highlighted in their published profile.

Hamilton, a first-chair trial lawyer and Co-Chair of the Los Angeles and Century City Litigation & Trial Department, was cited for his extensive track record of delivering client-focused results in market-defining litigation, trials, and arbitrations in both California and across the country. He represents companies, boards of directors, and senior executives in securities and corporate governance-related litigation and investigations, defense of class actions, and other high-stakes complex commercial litigation matters across multiple industries.

Ryan, a member of the M&A and Private Equity Practice, was recognized for her ability to deftly guide clients in their most significant transactions, particularly when deals entail stringent regulatory overlays, distressed dynamics, or complicated cross-border elements. She advises private equity funds and public and private companies in a wide variety of corporate transactions, including complex mergers and acquisitions, restructurings, and minority investments.
