About Candice S.
Candice S. Klein attended the University of California, Irvine before earning her J.D. at Southwestern University School of Law. She built her legal foundation in California and has been active in private practice for several decades.
Her early career advanced quickly. By 1997 she was a partner at Carpenter, Zuckerman & Rowley, LLP, a role that placed her in senior firm leadership and client-facing responsibilities. That partnership period shaped her approach to managing cases and supervising teams of associates and support staff. The record shows a steady rise through law firm ranks rather than a stint in government or in-house practice.
In 2013 Klein joined Panish Shea & Boyle LLP. Her move to that firm marked the most recent stage of a long career in private practice. At Panish Shea & Boyle she became part of an established litigation firm environment. Her work there continued the pattern of senior-level responsibilities she carried earlier in her career.
Across her years at different firms, Klein's roles have included partnership and senior attorney duties. Those positions commonly require directing strategy, advising clients, and mentoring junior lawyers. Colleagues and firm records reflect someone who has handled the administrative and substantive demands that come with running complex matters inside a firm setting.
Klein's academic background and long tenure in law firms suggest a steady professional trajectory. She moved from an undergraduate program at a major public university to a J.D. program that prepared her for California practice. The transition into partner-level roles and then to a new firm later in her career illustrates a path many litigators and firm lawyers follow as they assume greater responsibility.
Today she practices at Panish Shea & Boyle LLP. Her work there centers on the firm’s litigation matters and ongoing client representation.
