Linscott Associates was founded by Phil Linscott in 1966, with the help of his wife Betsey, to focus on traffic and parking issues. We were one of the first independent firms in Southern California (that is, not a local office of a national firm) and remain independent to this day. Jack Greenspan joined the firm later that year, and Bill Law did so in the early 1970s. By then, we were three (namesakes, that is) and the company name was broadened to Linscott, Law & Greenspan, Engineers, a California Corporation, in 1976. Or for short, simply...LLG.
In 1984, Phil retired, and we continued as Linscott, Law & Greenspan, Engineers, but changed our incorporated name to LG2WB Engineers, Inc. to reflect the initials of the remaining and emerging company leadership at the time. This was significant in that the company leaders were grown largely from within, a practice that continues to this day. Bill subsequently retired in the early 1990s as did jack in 2005. As they did, others emerged to lead the firm, our staff grew to more than sixty, and our offices continued to expand in Pasadena, Costa Mesa, and San Diego, while working on a variety of challenging assignments from an enviable client list
Having achieved and passed our 40th birthday in 2006, and while looking forward to our golden anniversary and beyond, we remain an independent firm, led by a Management Committee committed to the core values and integrity of our founders. The men and women of LLG have worked diligently to establish and maintain a reputation for providing quality services that are insightful, accurate, timely and in the travelling public's best interest. In consultation with the public agencies, owners, developers and other design professionals, we remain committed to the fundamental values of our history while providing exemplary service to our clients.
