Ballard Spahr’s presence in the Pacific Northwest includes a thriving office in Portland, where more than 40 attorneys counsel clients in senior living and long-term care, commercial litigation, finance, mergers and acquisitions, and real estate.

Opened as part of the 2025 combination with Lane Powell, Ballard Spahr’s Portland office is situated in central downtown, merging wide-ranging industry knowledge with long-standing connections to the Rose City.

Our senior living and long-term care practice is nationally recognized for representing clients in regulatory compliance, risk management, transactional, employment, intellectual property, litigation, tax, and real estate matters. Our team of corporate, securities, and M&A lawyers are proud to advise some of the Northwest’s most established and respected companies on financing matters for startups, taxes, and regulatory compliance, to guide privately held and publicly traded companies through securities and strategic transactions, and to provide private client services to high-net worth individuals and groups.

Those practices, as well as our commercial litigation, finance, and real estate teams, have all been recognized by Chambers USA as industry leaders in their fields.
