Laura Tepper

Associate

Laura is a land use, environmental & natural resources associate in the San Francisco office.

Prior to practicing law, Laura spent more than a decade working in urban design and development. Over seven years working in San Francisco’s Mission Bay Redevelopment Area, she managed public park and infrastructure projects for the master developer and co-founded the ongoing Parklab interim use project. While in law school, she contributed to the Ecology Law Quarterly and the Berkeley Environmental Law Clinic. Laura has also conducted extensive research on barriers to housing development, which culminated in her co-authorship of UC Berkeley’s Policy & Practice Review of San Francisco’s Housing Policy, a publication sponsored by California’s Department of Housing and Community Development.
