Anne Box is a strategic and results-driven trial lawyer with a deep background in securities, antitrust, and other complex litigation. She serves as senior counsel in DiCello Levitt’s Securities and Financial Products Practice Group in San Diego, where she represents institutional investors and banks in cases against major financial institutions and corporations that engage in fraud and deceptive practices.
Before joining DiCello Levitt, Anne Box built an extensive litigation career spanning civil and criminal cases. As a partner at a prominent complex securities litigation firm, she represented institutional investors in high-stakes securities fraud class actions, supervising litigation teams from complaint through trial preparation and settlement negotiations. She played a key role in securing significant recoveries, including a $7.2 billion settlement in the landmark In re Enron Corporation Securities Litigation and a groundbreaking case against major credit rating agencies for their role in the subprime mortgage crisis. Later, as counsel at another distinguished firm, Anne continued advocating for investors and businesses harmed by financial misconduct, litigating cases involving mortgage-backed securities fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, and antitrust violations in the pharmaceutical sector.
Anne founded and operated her own law firm, where she advised corporate executives on compensation and employment matters and consulted on complex litigation. Her diverse experience also includes serving as a chief felony prosecutor in Texas, where she tried over 100 jury trials to verdict, and litigating energy disputes on behalf of major oil companies early in her career. She also served as an articles editor for the Energy Law Journal while in law school.
Outside of her legal practice, Anne is committed to community service. She is the president of the Friends of the Mission Hills-Hillcrest/Knox Library, supervising 60-plus volunteers and providing support to the San Diego Public Library branch by organizing programs, operating a bookstore, and hosting fundraising events. She also volunteers with KSDS Jazz 88.3 FM, supporting the station’s fundraising efforts and community outreach programs.
