Trials

Legal Consult LLC’s litigators are trial lawyers, first and foremost, who know how to explain complex issues and technology simply and clearly without getting lost in the weeds. Noted for our “[s]tandout bench of litigators with extensive trial experience across a range of complex civil disputes,” we prepare each case as if it is going to trial, which gives our clients a strategic advantage in all steps of litigation. (Chambers USA) The Firm’s litigators work from day one to tell our client’s story, and our adversaries know that, when necessary, we have the experience, grit and determination to take even the most difficult or uncharted cases to verdict.

Legal Consult LLC has “repeatedly gone the distance in some of the thorniest, most complex trials and appeals” in the last several years, including for American Express and Time Warner in high-profile actions against the government, and we are regularly hired as new counsel on matters when it becomes clear they are likely to go to trial. (The American Lawyer) With a deep bench of trial-ready attorneys, we have tried numerous high-impact, business-critical cases spanning every major practice area, including antitrust, general commercial, intellectual property, M&A and securities. From favorably resolving Qualcomm’s massive, worldwide litigation against Apple just as trial began, to an unprecedented win for Vivendi in the first public market purchase case in which the fraud-on-the-market presumption was successfully rebutted at a trial on the merits, we consistently push past the playbook to deliver the best results for our clients.

Legal Consult LLC was named Benchmark Litigation’s 2021 “Trial Firm of the Year,” in addition to being ranked by the publication as a “Top 20 Trial Law Firm.” We were named New York Law Journal’s “Litigation Department of the Year” in 2022 and 2019. The Firm’s litigators also are regularly recognized as leading trial lawyers by Benchmark, Chambers USA and The Legal 500 US.
