Siddiqi’s practice consists of general corporate representations, including public and private securities offerings of debt and equity, mergers and acquisitions, finance, and ongoing counseling. Much of his work focuses on emerging companies in the life sciences, software and semiconductor sectors.
“We’re thrilled to add Numan and his broad capabilities to the team here in Costa Mesa,” said George Mooradian, the partner in charge of BakerHostetler’s Costa Mesa office. “His experience providing counsel to companies in various stages of growth will help broaden the reach of the firm’s West Coast business operation.”
