Litigation

Our highly experienced litigators have a well-earned reputation for providing clients with winning strategies and zealous representation.  Whether the matter is complex in nature or a minor dispute, our team employs the expertise and energy necessary to achieve successful outcomes.  We are ardent in the defense and prosecution of claims including breach of contract, fraud, breach of fiduciary duty, negligence, tortious interference with contract, and violations of state and federal laws concerning trade secrets, unfair competition, intellectual property rights, labor and employment.  Corporations, limited liability companies, partnerships and joint ventures across a wide range of industries rely on our unparalleled track record for delivering successful courtroom results and merits-based dispute resolution with creative deal restructurings.

When a matter requires experience and knowledge across legal disciplines, clients appreciate that our team is able to staff litigation matters with attorneys from different practice groups within the firm.  This integrated approach provides efficiency and the best legal minds for a wide range of matters.

We are not generic litigators who follow a one-size-fits-all approach to dispute avoidance and resolution.  Instead, we recognize that every client and every case is unique and requires a creative approach calibrated to the client’s particular goals and objectives.  We are pragmatic problem-solvers, looking for ways to advance our client’s interests in an efficient and cost-effective manner.  Using the strength of our carefully-crafted legal position as leverage, we engage in merits-based settlement discussions early and often, pursue mediation, and look relentlessly for creative approaches for narrowing or eliminating the dispute.

At Shulman Rogers, we pride ourselves not only on our skilled representation before judges and juries, but also on our tireless efforts to help clients avoid litigation altogether or to resolve contested matters at the earliest possible juncture.  We draw from our experience structuring transactions outside of the litigation context and our deep understanding of our clients’ business and commercial objectives to resolve disputes efficiently.

Through our cutting edge approach to dispute avoidance and resolution, our clients are best able to manage their litigation risk and achieve their business objectives.  In the process, they come to see us as valued counselors, not just another lawyer.
