About the Role
They represent companies, financial institutions, private equity firms, and individuals in
their most significant and high-stakes disputes. They tailor their litigation teams to the
specific characteristics of each matter, drawing on a global team of seasoned litigators
and trial lawyers to match the industry, claims, subject matter, client goals, and venue at
play. Regardless of the nature of the dispute, they adopt a trial-ready strategy from the
outset to achieve the best result for the client, in whatever form success takes.
Their 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 knows their track record of taking the toughest cases to trial
and winning - a reputation that often influences settlement considerations when their
name appears on the docket.
They pair their experience with a fluency in the market dynamics that are influencing
industries - from financial services to technology and energy to life sciences - across
the world. They routinely litigate business torts, contract and joint venture disputes,
fraud and unfair competition, as well as consumer protection claims, insolvency and
restructuring matters, insurance coverage, and trade secrets cases across a wide range
of industries and venues. This diverse practice gives them insight into the litigation
strategies that help their clients prevail.
Their clients' business objectives guide our litigation planning. They take into account
the size of the matter, the client's exposure or upside, and the significance of the case
to the client. Recognizing that litigation is just one part of a larger business strategy,
They evaluate early exit options to minimize costs, including dispositive motions,
alternative dispute resolution, and settlement, as well as third-party indemnification and
insurance coverage.
