About EBG's Litigation Practice:
Epstein Becker Green's national Litigation practice offers a broad range of experience in both civil and criminal cases. While every matter is unique, we feel that our experience in several core industries, including health care and life sciences, hospitality, and financial services, and the efficiency with which we can handle matters from inception through resolution are highly valued by our clients. We are recognized for providing an aggressive yet thoughtful approach to each matter, and defending our clients' interests without ever losing sight of our primary goal—resolving disputes in a way that meets their legal and business objectives.
Our litigators know the intricacies of modern investigations and litigations and include former judges, U.S. Department of Justice civil and criminal prosecutors, appellate and trial court law clerks, and corporate counsel. At the early stages of a dispute, our litigators work closely with the CEO, general counsel, and governing board of a client to develop a litigation strategy that addresses the client's needs with insight and perceptive. It's all part of our "boutique approach"—tailored service that provides the focused experience of a boutique firm with the ability to draw upon the resources of our other national practices: Health Care and Life Sciences, Labor and Employment, Corporate Services, and Employee Benefits. For these reasons, Epstein Becker Green has provided litigation counsel and representation to domestic and global entities for nearly four decades.
