1. Comprehensive Litigation Strategy
Delivering Clarity and Control in Every Phase of a Dispute
Effective Litigation begins long before a case reaches the courtroom. We work with clients to assess exposure, manage risk, and craft strategies that align with broader business objectives. Our lawyers emphasize preparation, collaboration, and foresight at every stage of the process.
Pre-Litigation Assessment and Risk Analysis
Our attorneys conduct in-depth evaluations of potential disputes, analyzing contractual terms, regulatory exposure, and jurisdictional risks. We identify leverage points that can influence settlement, arbitration, or trial outcomes. Through early case assessment, we help clients determine whether litigation is the best course of action or whether alternative resolutions can achieve better results.
Case Management and Strategic Planning
Each Litigation matter receives a dedicated strategy plan that balances aggressive advocacy with cost control. We create timelines, evidence protocols, and communication frameworks that streamline collaboration between in-house and outside counsel. Our goal is to minimize disruption to clients’ operations while maintaining full readiness for trial.
2. Civil and Commercial Litigation
Resolving Business Disputes with Legal and Commercial Precision
Commercial disputes are among the most common yet complex areas of Litigation. They often involve overlapping issues of contract law, corporate governance, and regulatory compliance. Our lawyers have deep experience representing clients in industries such as finance, real estate, energy, and technology.
Contractual and Business Disputes
We handle breach of contract, partnership dissolution, and shareholder disputes, focusing on preserving value and reputation. Our team crafts settlement and negotiation strategies that protect long-term business relationships while achieving favorable outcomes. When necessary, we litigate aggressively to enforce rights or defend against unfounded claims.
Complex Commercial and Cross-Border Litigation
Global commerce brings global disputes. We represent multinational corporations in cross-border litigation involving multiple jurisdictions, foreign law issues, and enforcement of international judgments. Our Litigation practice coordinates with local counsel worldwide to deliver unified defense and strategy. We also advise on international arbitration and enforcement under conventions such as the New York Convention.
3. Regulatory and White Collar Litigation
Defending Clients in Government Investigations and Enforcement
Regulatory enforcement has become one of the most significant risks for modern businesses. Our Litigation team defends clients in investigations, enforcement actions, and prosecutions brought by agencies including the Department of Justice (DOJ), Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
Government Investigations and Enforcement Actions
We guide companies and executives through inquiries, subpoenas, and administrative hearings. Our lawyers develop cooperative but assertive strategies that protect clients’ rights and reputations. We frequently resolve investigations before they become public or result in litigation, minimizing financial and reputational exposure.
White Collar and Corporate Crime Defense
Our firm defends corporations and individuals facing allegations of fraud, bribery, sanctions violations, and financial misconduct. The Litigation team includes former prosecutors who understand enforcement priorities and investigative methods. We manage cross-border investigations, coordinate with regulators, and pursue favorable resolutions that protect both the client and its leadership.
4. Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) and Arbitration
Practical Solutions Beyond the Courtroom
Not every dispute requires a trial. In many cases, arbitration and mediation offer faster, confidential, and more cost-effective solutions. Our Litigation attorneys are skilled negotiators and advocates before leading arbitral institutions worldwide.
Domestic and International Arbitration
We represent clients in arbitrations administered by the ICC, LCIA, AAA, and other forums. Our team handles disputes involving joint ventures, construction, energy projects, and financial transactions. We ensure that arbitral awards are enforceable and strategically aligned with our clients’ goals.
Mediation and Early Settlement Strategies
Mediation can preserve relationships and reduce cost. We prepare clients for settlement discussions by identifying the underlying commercial drivers of conflict. Our lawyers use negotiation, neutral evaluation, and structured mediation to reach equitable resolutions that protect confidentiality and business integrity.
5. Appellate and Post-Judgment Litigation
Turning Setbacks into Opportunities for Legal Clarification
The conclusion of a trial is not always the end of the dispute. Our Litigation practice includes a nationally recognized appellate team that challenges or defends judgments in appellate courts. We view appeals as opportunities to refine legal doctrine and secure long-term success for clients.
Appellate Advocacy
Our appellate lawyers analyze the trial record to identify reversible error, develop persuasive briefs, and present oral arguments before federal and state appellate courts. We handle cases involving commercial law, constitutional issues, and administrative rulings. Each appeal is approached strategically, focusing on precedent and policy implications.
Judgment Enforcement and Post-Trial Strategy
Winning a judgment is only part of the process; enforcing it is another. We assist clients in recovering awards, negotiating settlements, and defending against post-judgment motions. Our Litigation attorneys also provide counsel on the implications of appellate rulings for ongoing operations and compliance frameworks.
