Ervin Cohen & Jessup Welcomes Veteran Law Firm Leader Angela Pinto As Executive Director

Ervin Cohen & Jessup announced today the addition of Angela Pinto as Executive Director.

Angela joins the team at ECJ, the largest and longest operating law firm in Beverly Hills’ history, with nearly two decades of experience as a law firm administrator. She most recently served as the Senior Director of Administration for Fisher Phillips LLP, one of the largest employment-related law firms with national operations in the United States.

As executive director, Angela will serve as chief officer in charge of firm operations, leading the firm’s most strategic, business initiatives including technology deployment and process improvement. She will also interface with the firm’s practice and industry chairs and clients.

Barry J. MacNaughton, co-managing partner of Ervin Cohen Jessup, said Pinto would ensure that each team—  specializing in real estate, corporate and tax, employment, litigation and more than a dozen other practice areas—would have the support and guidance needed to produce the best results possible for clients.

“When it comes to managing a law firm with a deep and diverse bench like ours, we couldn’t have asked for a better executive director than Angela,” said MacNaughton.

Co-managing Partner Randall S. Leff said Pinto’s guidance would be a boon, in equal parts, for ECJ’s practices individually, its clients and the firm as a whole.

“We are very excited to have Angela join the ECJ team. Her experience and expertise combined with her infectious enthusiasm make her a great fit for the firm,” said Leff. “We look forward to her contribution to our continued success.”
