First Foundation Expands In California

First Foundation has appointed three individuals to lead two new offices in the Golden State.

First Foundation, which serves high net worth individuals and businesses, has opened two new offices in California, which will be led by three new senior vice presidents.

First Foundation serves clients through two subsidiaries, First Foundation Bank and First Foundation Advisors.

Tony Fire will lead the new Los Angeles office, and Kris Lynds and Manjit Dhillon will co-lead the Oakland office.

First Foundation is headquartered in Irvine, CA, with offices in Newport Beach, Pasadena, West Los Angeles, San Diego, Palm Desert and the Imperial Valley, as well as in Las Vegas, NV, and in Honolulu, HI.

At the end of June, Pacific Rim Bank officially merged into First Foundation Bank and took the latter's name to form a financial services company spanning eight geographic regions in Hawaii, California and Nevada.
