Litigation & Business Disputes

We Make Your Business Our Business

Every client has unique needs and goals. We immerse ourselves in our clients’ business and partner with in-house teams to understand their organizational structure and particular circumstances to shape the right strategy. Our decades of experience representing clients in financial services, hospitality, retail, technology, media, communications, health care, and life sciences, among other industries, equip our team with acute insight into opportunities and vulnerabilities so that we can meet our clients' needs with proactive solutions.

Focused on Early Resolutions. Ready for Trial.

Clients value that we avoid trials whenever possible. However, as experienced courtroom lawyers, we prepare for that possibility and use those tactics to our clients’ advantage. We know how to marshal evidence and present our clients’ strongest position in pre-lawsuit negotiations. Drawing on our decades of experience presenting cases to juries, judges, and arbitrators, we know how to conduct pretrial discovery effectively and efficiently with the singular goal of putting claims to rest and keeping our clients focused on their business priorities.

Relationships Based on Efficiency and Transparency

We build long-term client relationships based on thoughtful and innovative litigation management solutions. We don’t litigate just for the sake of litigation. As early as possible, we provide direct and realistic assessments of a client’s situation. Based on a client's needs, business objectives, and resources, we explore the most direct way to achieve early resolutions. If a more protracted fight is inevitable, we launch an efficient e-discovery process with streamlined document retention programs, discovery response plans, and guidelines to protect electronically stored data.

Proactive Counsel to Minimize Future Exposure

Clients rely on our litigation experience to prevent future liability. We are dialed into the specific and ever-changing industry trends, pressures, and pitfalls our clients face in the course of their operations. Clients turn to us to review their contracts, organizational structure, third-party agreements, and relationships to address weaknesses and position them with the upper hand in future negotiations and litigation. We also empower in-house teams and executives with enhanced contract drafting and negotiation skills and help them design highly effective conflict management systems.
