Emerge Law Group
joins Vicente LLP
After serving clients for over 12 years, Emerge Law Group is closing its doors. The majority of our attorneys, including Dave Kopilak, Sean Clancy, Alex Berger, and Adam Gamboa, joined Vicente LLP, effective December 15, 2025. We have worked with many Vicente attorneys over the years and those of us joining Vicente are excited to continue our work at our new home. Our amazing long-time land use colleague Corinne Celko will be moving on to a new non-legal career, and we wish her the best of luck. Our business law colleague Kaci Hohmann will continue her practice at Epstein Becker & Green P.C. Our tax colleague Bernard Chamberlain, who was one of Emerge’s original shareholders, will continue practicing at his own law firm.
We want to thank all the clients (more than 1,000!) that we’ve had the privilege of serving as well as the 50 attorneys and dozens of staff who, at one time or another, were part of the Emerge family. Together, we all played a role in drafting, campaigning for, and implementing Oregon Ballot Measure 91 (2014) and Oregon Ballot Measure 109 (2020), and all of us are proud and grateful to have played a small part in Oregon history. There is always more work to be done and more progress to make. We are energized for the future and excited to keep going.
