Prior to moving to Sacramento, he worked in Palo Alto as an associate at Wilson Sonsini, the nation’s leading law firm serving technology and venture capital clients.

Brad’s notable litigation includes the successful defense of State Farm in an action by then-Attorney General Bill Lockyer’s office to invalidate settlement agreements entered into with the Department of Insurance under former Commissioner Chuck Quackenbush following the Northridge earthquake. In the 2012 election cycle, he defended a donor in high-profile litigation over the alleged violation of state campaign finance regulations. He has also successfully defended a number of companies in actions brought under the California Political Reform Act.
