SAN FRANCISCO (April 24, 2007):  Farella Braun + Martel LLP was named one of the top 100 Best Places to Work in the Bay Area for the third consecutive year.  The rankings were largely the result of an online employee satisfaction survey on a range of topics gauging how happy they were with their work climate and culture, management practices and specific policies and benefits.
