Respected by judges and adversaries, our litigators are regarded as creative strategists and fair, effective advocates, equally at home in a courtroom, mediation, or arbitration setting.

 

We’re not focused on generating repeat litigation business. Instead, we draw on our knowledge of clients’ business, industry, and pain points to help proactively manage commercial issues upfront, and whenever possible prevent issues from escalating.

 

We relish the challenge of going to court and excel in delivering results aligned with our clients’ business and financial priorities. Working collaboratively with in-house teams, we evaluate risks, operational burdens, and the cost of pursuing litigation. Then, we develop a strategic plan with the goal of minimizing economic impact, operational disruption, and stress, so clients can stay focused on their business.
