Deanna Whitestone

Deanna Whitestone has been practicing law in California for 12 years. She began her legal career as a securities regulator at the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). Afterward she moved into the private sector, first as an associate at Richardson and Patel LLP, and later at the Post Law Group PC, where she practiced in the areas of corporate and securities law.

Deanna most recently worked as an associate at Raines Feldman LLP, where she advised privately and publicly held companies in corporate, securities, and transactional matters. Her practice included entity formation, negotiating, drafting, and reviewing various commercial contracts, and advising on employment matters. A deepening interest in advocating for small business owners prompted her to launch her own practice in 2018.
