We do one thing – civil litigation.
We don’t draft wills or review contracts. We don’t lobby Congress, give tax advice, or negotiate labor contracts. No divorces. But if your case involves a courtroom or an arbitration panel, we’ve probably handled something similar to your case.
Much of our reputation has been built on complex financial litigation, such as securities or antitrust class actions and arbitrations. But we also handle a lot of general business disputes involving accounting issues, business valuations, shareholder fights, covenants not to compete, and trademark litigation. We handle high-value personal injury litigation, such as commercial vehicle accidents, and False Claims Act, or “whistle-blower,” cases.
We often represent plaintiffs, but we think our experience on the plaintiffs’ side of cases also makes us better defense lawyers when the opportunity arises.
We have attorneys in Birmingham, Alabama, and Chicago, Illinois, but we handle cases in state and federal courts all across the nation, including all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court.
We have an “AV” peer-review rating (the highest awarded) from Martindale-Hubbell, and we are listed in the Bar Register of Preeminent Lawyers under the heading “Civil Trial Practice,” because that’s what we do: civil litigation.
