Buchalter Adds Litigation Shareholder in Denver

Buchalter is pleased to announce that Leah Capritta has joined the firm as a Litigation Shareholder in its Denver office. Capritta joins Buchalter from Holland & Knight.

Earlier this year, Buchalter expanded it’s space at the historic Granite Tower location in the heart of downtown Denver leasing a full floor of approximately 21,223 square feet with more than 50 attorney offices. Buchalter’s Denver office now includes 45 attorneys and professionals, strengthening the firm’s capabilities in key industries, including corporate, real estate, estate planning, commercial litigation, and natural resources law. 

“We’re delighted welcome Leah to Buchalter,” said Adam Bass, President and Chief Executive Officer. “She brings outstanding litigation experience that complements our existing litigation capabilities and bolsters the strong foundation we’ve built in Denver and the firm as a whole.”

Capritta currently focuses her practice on representing multinational oil and gas organizations in litigation matters, and she specializes in creating dynamic strategies for changing the regulatory landscape on behalf of retail providers of power and natural gas. As one example, Capritta successfully led a multi-prong litigation and regulatory effort that ultimately forced Pacific Gas & Electric to fundamentally change its billing and collections operations on behalf of retail suppliers in Northern California.

“Buchalter’s entrepreneurial culture and national Litigation practice made this an ideal opportunity for me,” said Capritta. “I am thrilled to join a team of top-notch legal professionals and expand the range of legal services I can offer to my clients.”

Capritta’s litigation experience also encompasses Title VII discrimination lawsuits; Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) and Fair Employment and Housing Act (FEHA) lawsuits; whistleblower actions; Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) actions; and class actions involving wage and hour claims. Additionally, Capritta has shepherded clients through commercial insurance coverage disputes and trade secret and trademark infringement cases.

Robert Hinckley, Office Managing Shareholder of Buchalter’s Denver office, added, “Leah’s extensive litigation experience is a terrific asset for our clients and our growing office. She’s an exceptional addition to the firm.”
