Partner Diana Brummer has been named to New York Real Estate Journal’s 2026 Ones to Watch: Industry Leaders Spotlight, which recognizes exceptional professionals whose leadership, innovation, and vision are shaping the future of New York's commercial real estate industry.
Diana, co-chair of the firm’s global Real Estate Industry group of 155+ lawyers across 16 offices, is noted for her work on real estate financings, complex joint ventures, acquisitions and dispositions, and loan workouts. The publication also highlighted Diana’s recent work co-leading the Goodwin team that advised Newbond Holdings on the $408 million acquisition of two of San Francisco’s largest and most recognizable hotels: the Hilton San Francisco Union Square and Parc 55 San Francisco – A Hilton Hotel. This landmark deal in November 2025 was a highly structured transaction, the largest hotel trade in the history of San Francisco, and is part of the comeback story of downtown San Francisco.
In addition to this honor, Diana was named to PERE’s 100 Most Influential (2016–2025) list as one of only two law firm partners. She has been recognized on Globe Street’s Women of Influence list and by Crain’s New York Business as a Notable Leader in Real Estate. Diana is also routinely recognized as a leading lawyer by Chambers USA, Legal 500 US, and Best Lawyers.
