Litigation strategy:
A valued member of the litigation team
LITIGATION STRATEGY. We are not just advocates -- we are strategists. Waiting until there is an adverse decision or verdict is often not the best or most efficient use of appellate counsel. We understand that our clients want to mitigate risk, limit exposure and resolve cases when possible, all while maintaining an aggressive, cogent and targeted legal defense in an effort to achieve the optimal outcome.

Damage mitigation:
Early + aggressive defense of damages
DAMAGE MITIGATION. The vast majority of cases settle at some point during litigation. Yet, the defense of damages is often an afterthought for trial counsel who is primarily and understandably focused on issues related to liability. However, we recognize that equally important as a strong liability defense is an early and aggressive damages defense in order to achieve the best outcome, whether by settlement or verdict. And we serve as National Coordinating Counsel on Damages for several of our clients. LEARN MORE
Cases from inception:
High exposure litigation program
HIGH EXPOSURE LITIGATION PROGRAM. The purpose of our "HELP" program is to provide an alternative to the traditional model of case handling, so that select matters do not pass through the same routinized pre-trial preparation process. As an appellate firm, we are best suited to identify key legal issues from the outset and fully develop those issues throughout discovery to ensure that every key issue is identified and properly framed, and that all available defenses are thoroughly explored and implemented.
