The firm was recognized for its successful challenge to the City of Escondido’s illegal immigrant rental ban.

As the lead counsel of a coalition of civil rights groups, private attorney’s and the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU). partner Alan Mansfield of Rosner & Mansfield first obtained a temporary restraining order shortly after the Escondido City Council passed the legislation. He followed that success with an agreement negotiated with Escondido where the City agreed to be permanently enjoined from ever visiting the racially divisive issue again. In addition the City agreed to a six figure settlement. Alan Mansfield said "I’m proud to have spearheaded the defense of civil rights for all, including immigrants, and was gratified to achieve such a speedy, positive and just conclusion to legislation that was so racially charged and divisive. To be recognized by the San Diego County Bar Association is both gratifying and exciting and I thank the association for this award."
