Litigation: General Commercial

For generations, Cravath’s litigators have devised creative resolutions to complex disputes—consistently pushing beyond the “playbook” to deliver the best results for our clients. Drawing on our deep bench of trial‑ready attorneys, we have repeatedly secured precedent‑setting results that have reshaped the legal and business landscapes.

Cravath trains generalist litigators with the tools to tackle complex cases from every angle. We see the broader picture, so we can devise and deliver innovative approaches to the problem at hand, regardless of the subject matter, industry or client’s role in a particular dispute. The credibility and experience we bring to each matter and our preparation of each case from the outset as if it is going to trial give us a strategic advantage in all steps of litigation. Our litigators understand how to explain complex issues and technology simply and clearly without getting lost in the weeds. Because Cravath’s litigators are trained across a broad array of legal areas, the same team can handle general commercial claims as well as disputes involving more specialized areas of the law, allowing us to use small teams and be more cost‑effective.

We also work closely with clients to understand and appreciate their business objectives and culture to provide both short- and long‑term solutions. Cravath’s litigators are not just legal advisors—we are our clients’ partners in developing workable solutions to the wide range of issues they face.
