Orrick has added M&A and private equity partner Bryan Gadol to its Orange County office in California.
Gadol advises companies, PE funds and family offices in tech, medical device, beauty, healthcare, consumer products, and manufacturing at all stages in the corporate life-cycle, including M&A and private equity, securities transactions, reorganisations and other corporate matters.
Bryan joins a team of about 100 lawyers in our three Southern California offices (Orange County, Los Angeles and Santa Monica) focused on companies in the tech & innovation, energy & infrastructure and finance sectors.
“It has been a longtime goal to build our corporate capability in Orange County,” says Glenn Dassoff, co-leader of the firm’s Orange County office. “We’re thrilled to do so with a practitioner of Bryan’s quality who shares our passion for client service.”
“Bryan is a great fit as we grow our SoCal M&A and private equity capabilities,” adds Ed Batts, head of the firm’s global M&A practice. “He is a hands-on corporate advisor, with a well-known reputation in this market.”
Bryan is the OC chairman for Gen Next, a non-profit. He also serves on the ABA’s Mergers and Acquisitions Committee, the ABA Privacy Equity and Venture Capital Committee and the ABA Angel Venture Capital Committee. He is a regular speaker and author on a variety of M&A and private equity topics.
“I’m thrilled to be joining Orrick and Glenn and his team in Orange County,” says Bryan. “The firm’s sector strategy and collaborative culture will be a real benefit to my clients.”
