          Re:  287,500 Shares of Common Stock of Corsair Communications, Inc.
               -------------------------------------------------------------

Ladies and Gentlemen:

          We have acted as counsel to Corsair Communications, Inc., a Delaware
corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the proposed issuance and sale
by the Company of up to 287,500 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the
"Shares"), pursuant to the Company's Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed on
July 29, 1997 pursuant to Rule 462(b) promulgated by the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Registration
Statement").

          In connection with this opinion, we have examined the Registration
Statement and related Prospectus, the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate
of Incorporation, the Company's restated bylaws and the originals, or copies
certified to our satisfaction, of such records, documents, certificates,
memoranda and other instruments as in our judgement are necessary or appropriate
to enable us to render the opinion expressed below (the "Documents").  We are
relying (without any independent investigation thereof) upon the truth and
accuracy of the statements, covenants, representations and warranties set forth
in such Documents.

          On the basis of the foregoing, and in reliance thereon, we are of the
opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized, and if, as and when issued in
accordance with the Registration Statement and Prospectus (as amended and
supplemented through the date of issuance) will be validly issued, fully paid
and nonassessable.
