About Andrew
Andrew Lopez began his legal path at New York University School of Law, where he earned his J.D. in 2007. The New York education provided a foundation in both doctrine and practical skills. He left law school as the legal landscape was changing rapidly, and he moved into practice prepared to handle matters that cross state lines.
Since graduating, Lopez has practiced in multiple jurisdictions. He is admitted to the bars of Colorado, Alaska and New York. That multistate standing allows him to take on matters that require counsel admitted in more than one state. It also shapes how he approaches case strategy and client counseling, because issues that look local at first can quickly involve different rules and courts.
Lopez’s career has included work in private practice at Sequoia Legal. At the firm he represents clients on matters that arise across his admitted jurisdictions. Colleagues describe him as methodical in preparing filings and deliberate in courtroom presentations. He balances litigation tasks with transactional work when clients need both kinds of help.
In day-to-day practice Lopez handles cases and client needs that reflect the variety of the three states where he is licensed. That can mean courtroom appearances, drafting agreements, or advising on regulatory matters. He often works with clients who have operations or interests in more than one state, which calls for coordination between offices and careful attention to differing procedural rules.
Outside of firm responsibilities, Lopez maintains professional memberships in organizations that support lawyers and the legal system. He participates in continuing education to keep current with changes in state procedure and evolving case law. Colleagues say he approaches professional development as part of the job, not as an optional extra.
As of 2026, Lopez continues to practice through Sequoia Legal. His current practice centers on legal matters arising in Colorado, Alaska and New York.
