[ Practice /// 01 — state and federal trial courts ]
High stakes,no theater
We represent companies, boards, founders, and funds in commercial disputes where the outcome is existential or close to it. If a matter can be handled by form letter, it is not for us.
- Contract and commercial wars. Termination fights, supply and licensing breakdowns, MSA and SLA disputes with real operational stakes.
- Fraud and fiduciary claims. Business torts, self-dealing, officer and director duty claims, on either side of the v.
- Trade secrets and restrictive covenants. Departing-team emergencies, forensic preservation, TRO and preliminary injunction practice.
- Shareholder and partnership fights. Deadlock, oppression, buyout, and valuation disputes in closely held companies.
- Class and mass action defense. Consumer and commercial class claims, coordinated multi-forum defense.
Exposure mapping
Ten days in, you get a written exposure model: claims, defenses, realistic ranges, and the three facts that will decide the case.
Theory and forum
One theory of the case, chosen early and stress-tested against the documents. Venue, judge, and jury analysis in writing.
Pressure sequence
Discovery and motion practice sequenced to force the counterparty into decisions on our calendar, not theirs.
Verdict or leverage
We arrive at trial ready, which is why most matters resolve on favorable terms before a jury is seated.
Process illustrative. Fictional demo firm; not legal advice.
When speed isthe whole case
Trade secret exfiltration, asset flight, and covenant breaches do not wait for a scheduling order. Our emergency team files for temporary and preliminary relief on compressed timelines: forensics engaged day one, declarations drafted in parallel, and a hearing-ready record inside the week.
Just as often we defend these motions, unwinding overbroad injunctions that were built on adjectives instead of evidence.
