About Brotman Law
We Built a Tax Law Firm
Our Mission
We Believe You Can Achieve Great Things When Freed From the Burdens of Your Tax Problems.
We built Brotman Law for a specific kind of client — business owners, entrepreneurs, and high-net-worth individuals who build things, take risks, and move mountains on an almost daily basis.
They dream big and swing for the fences, even when it means they sometimes stumble. They’re great at what they do. They just need someone in their corner who understands tax law as well as they understand their own business.
Tax is complicated enough. We make everything else as simple as we possibly can. That’s what sets us apart — we don’t just solve tax problems, we build relationships. And those relationships are what drive every decision we make.
At our core, this firm is a platform built for the success of our clients, our team members, and their families.
“First and foremost, we are a business founded on the idea that people do business with people.”
Sam Brotman, Founding Attorney

Our Story
From One Client to One of California’s Fastest-Growing Law Firms
December 28, 2013
Our First Client
The doors were not supposed to open for another five days, but someone got to us early and we resolved his issue before the clock struck midnight for 2014.
2014
Ocean Beach
The firm moves into its first formal office on Saratoga Avenue in the Ocean Beach neighborhood of San Diego. We were a small tax law firm with three employees, a laid-back vibe, and a killer ocean view.
2018
National Recognition
Brotman Law moves into our office at 402 W. Broadway. In that span our firm had developed into one of the leading tax firms in Southern California. We received national attention and contributed to articles for the New York Times (the front page) and the Wall Street Journal. Ranked 14th fastest-growing law firm in the country.
2024
Inc. 5000
Named one of the 8 fastest-growing legal firms in America by Inc. Magazine. Forbes Business Council member. Over $100M saved in taxes for clients.
November 2025
San Diego — Del Mar Heights
We moved to our Del Mar-area office in San Diego, marking an exciting new chapter — one defined by a larger team, expanded resources, and an even stronger ability to serve our clients. With over twelve years of truly stellar results and more than a billion dollars saved in taxes, we look forward to the future and to the legacy we are building as a firm.
