Glaser Weil Gains Partner

LOS ANGELES—Elisa L. Paster has joined law firm Glaser Weil as a partner in the firm’s government and regulatory law practice group. In this new position, Paster will handle land use and entitlement issues, like CEQA, planning and zoning law compliance and the subdivision map act, for developers, landowners, municipal governments and investors.

“I joined Glaser Weil because of their deep roots in the government and regulatory industry and their roster of clients provides a great platform for me,” Paster tells GlobeSt.com. “Also, I was very interested in the opportunity to work with Tim McOsker, former chief of staff to Los Angeles Mayor Jim Hahn and former chief deputy city attorney for the City of Los Angeles, who heads the firm’s government and regulatory practice. I look forward to helping continue to build the client base for the firm throughout Southern California.”
