Pacific Premier Bancorp, Inc.
A commercial bank serving businesses, professionals, real estate investors, and nonprofits, it offered deposits, business loans, and specialized touches like 1031 exchange escrow and self-directed IRA custody. It began in 1983 as Life Savings and Loan Association in San Bernardino, California, and only took the Pacific Premier name in 2002 as it grew from a small savings-and-loan into a broader commercial lender. A quirk: before that, it went by the plain name Life Bank.
