About Us

Sparer Law Group was founded in 2003 by Alan Sparer after 20 years of experience as a litigator and director at Howard, Rice, Nemerovski, Canady, Falk & Rabkin in San Francisco, California.

SLG specializes in representing high net worth investors and institutions in cases involving complex financial instruments such as credit default swaps, CDOs, auction rate securities and private equity. Building on a specialty Mr. Sparer began developing in the late 1990s, SLG has recovered tens of millions of dollars for a select list of investor clients.

In addition, SLG continues to litigate complex matters in diverse areas, including unlawful banking practices, CEQA, insurance coverage, real estate and health care. The firm's network of co-counseling relationships allows it to handle consolidated actions and class actions.

With its large firm background, SLG combines the highest level of legal expertise with personal and cost effective service. SLG offers alternative and contingent fee arrangements, and its hourly fees are generally one-third less than rates at large firms.
