Cox, Castle & Nicholson LLP, a leading full-service law firm specializing in real estate, said Tuesday that Rebecca Reed has joined the firm as a partner, reinforcing and expanding its commitment to San Diego and signaling plans for a forthcoming office. Reed joins Cox Castle from Procopio and will work alongside a team already serving clients in San Diego.

Based in San Diego, Reed represents developers and landowners in litigation involving the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the California Coastal Act, Planning and Zoning law and the Subdivision Map Act. She also handles disputes involving boundary lines, easements, covenants and restrictions, deeds, purchase and sale agreements, commercial leases, trespass and nuisance, adverse possession and inverse condemnation.

“Bringing Rebecca on board is a key step in deepening our commitment to San Diego,” said Mathew Wyman, chair of Cox Castle. “We have a long history of advising clients in the region, and as that work continues to grow, we are making a strategic investment to expand our local presence, including plans to open an office. This strengthens our bench and delivers greater value to clients in one of California’s most dynamic real estate markets.”
