Business Litigation

As business litigation attorneys, we have helped both large, international corporations and local, family-owned businesses resolve a wide range of business disputes while working at some of the most prestigious law firms in the country. Our experience includes cases involving breach of contract, fraud, breach of fiduciary duties, partnership disputes, trade secrets, oil & gas, alleged violations of the securities laws, bad faith insurance claims, professional compensation, and professional negligence, among others.

• Defending several public companies against lawsuits alleging violations of Sections 14(a) and 20(a) of the Exchange Act based on purportedly material omissions in proxies and similar SEC filings;
• Prosecuting and trying breach of contract and bad faith insurance claims that resulted in a multimillion-dollar jury verdict;
• Defending a large engineering firm in a high-profile case involving claims under the alien tort statute;
