On the 17th floor of one of the most iconic entertainment office complexes in Los Angeles—the trio of buildings includes the 44-story Century Plaza Towers and 12-story 2000 Avenue of the Stars building—you’ll find the bright and colorful law offices for Del Shaw Moonves Tanaka Finkelstein & Lezcano.

-The offices serve a variety of purposes, including hosting client events, educational presentations to law students, and evening cocktail parties.
-The lobby/conference room can accommodate up to 200 people thanks to a sliding Muraflex wall system that opens up the spaces.
