Regardless of the nature of the dispute, we adopt a trial-ready strategy from the outset to achieve the best result for the client, in whatever form success takes.<br>
<br>
Our deep bench of experienced trial lawyers, including dozens of former US federal prosecutors, have successfully tried or arbitrated hundreds of cases to verdict in the last decade. Opposing counsel know our track record of taking the toughest cases to trial and winning &mdash; a reputation that often influences settlement considerations when our name appears on the docket.<br>

We pair our experience with a fluency in the market dynamics that are influencing industries &mdash; from financial services to technology and energy to life sciences &mdash; across the world.

This diverse practice gives us insight into the litigation strategies that help our clients prevail.<br>
<br>
Our clients&rsquo; business objectives guide our litigation planning. We take into account the size of the matter, the client&rsquo;s exposure or up side, and the significance of the case to the client. Recognizing that litigation is just one part of a larger business strategy, we evaluate early exit options to minimize costs, including dispositive motions, alternative dispute resolution, and settlement, as well as third-party indemnification and insurance coverage.
