What We Do:
We offer an innovative approach to representing lenders by providing efficient, high-quality legal services consisting of senior-level talent at an affordable rate. Our litigators have tried cases to judgment nationwide across many industries from accounting to wholesale distribution and over substantive areas from antitrust to tax law controversies in a variety of settings, whether in federal or state trial court, appellate court, or alternative dispute resolution centers, including the American Arbitration Association, the International Chamber of Commerce, JAMS, and the International Centre for Dispute Resolution. From the first day of the case, every step our litigators take is with trial in mind. They believe that the best results for clients—in court or at a negotiating table—come from our strategic approach to trial readiness.
We recognize that every dispute contains unique dynamics as well as elements in common with similar disputes. We apply a combination of creativity, experience, and judgment to address both aspects. Our litigators know that every dispute is different: some cases are about the very survival of a business, while others are just a distraction. That is why they always keep our client’s priorities at the center of our strategy, whether in mediation, arbitration, or trial, and prepare each case for trial while keeping an eye out for favorable settlement opportunities.
With an integrated group of over 60 litigation attorneys in 19 offices across nine states and the District of Columbia, with attorneys admitted to practice throughout the United States, including two foreign countries, we provide litigation services to local, national, and international companies and individuals. Our litigators partner with clients to understand their business objectives and craft a litigation strategy meant to attain these business goals in the most efficient and effective manner with the responsiveness and close client connection other firms often lack.
Our Experience Includes:
- Banking & Financial Services
- Entertainment & Media
- Health Care
- Hospitality & Leisure
- Industrials & Manufacturing
- Professional Services
- Real Estate & Construction
- Technology
- Transportation
Our attorneys evaluate cases at an early stage and pride themselves on lean staffing and a dedicated team with the right expertise and industry knowledge. Clients benefit from our regulatory experience and our disciplined process designed to seek dismissal pretrial or when necessary to define and narrow the issues for trial. Our litigators work collaboratively with colleagues with subject-matter experts from across the firm to address a full range of considerations related to a dispute. Our litigators embrace appellate practice and are regularly retained to handle client interests on appeal in state and federal courts throughout the country.
Our Key Areas of Practice:
- Alternative Dispute Resolution
- Appellate Litigation
- Corporate Governance and Shareholder/Partnership Agreement Disputes
- Intellectual Property Litigation
- International Dispute Resolution
- Investigations
- Regulatory and Administrative Law
- Transactional Disputes
While our litigators are always ready to fight for our clients, sometimes the greatest service we can do for our clients is to help them avoid disputes in the first place. To that end, our litigators provide pre-dispute counseling to clients, collaborating with our colleagues from across the firm to identify possible problems before they arise and find cost-effective solutions that allow our clients to avoid the distraction of litigation and focus on their business. This all-encompassing approach gives us insight into the litigation strategies designed to help our clients succeed and, whenever possible, avoid or resolve disputes before they result in litigation.
