LITIGATION

We are one of the nation’s leading litigation and trial boutiques and have obtained billions of dollars in plaintiff and defense judgments in disputes across the country. Most of our cases involve highly publicized disputes affecting the lifeblood or survival of a client’s business or profession. Because of our track record in such cases, we often are engaged to replace existing counsel in bet-the-company litigation headed to trial. In recent years, we have obtained record-setting jury verdicts, arbitration awards, and trial court judgments in cases involving antitrust, trademark infringement, investor fraud, class action defense, corporate governance, and shareholder disputes.

Our litigation partners are in the prime of their careers and began their practices at the most established firms in the country.  Most of our associates are recruited from leading law firms and graduated from top law schools and clerked for federal or state judges before joining BHB. Our lean staffing and creative approaches to litigation include, where appropriate, offering clients alternative fee arrangements to ensure alignment of interests and to reward the firm for successful results.
