About
Provided by Dickinson Wright PLLC
With more than 120 lawyers engaged in Dickinson Wright's litigation practice, our reach extends from our "home court" jurisdictions to federal, state and provincial trial and appellate courts, governmental bodies, specialty courts and international, national and regional arbitral organizations across the United States and Canada. Our trial lawyers are highly regarded for their aggressive strategy, tactics and stand-up advocacy that produces winning results in the courtroom. We are equally well regarded for our success outside of the courtroom. Dickinson Wright trial lawyers are adept at creating opportunities to resolve a matter through the strategic and effective use of early dispositive motion practice and targeted discovery, and we are savvy enough to then drive home a settlement that our client has determined to be in its best interests. In the exercise of sound business judgment and experienced negotiation skills, we achieve results that advance business interests at the earliest possible juncture, before our clients needlessly commit resources to protracted litigation. In addition to litigating for our clients, our lawyers assist clients with conflict management, risk avoidance and dispute resolution. Using various alternative dispute resolution procedures, our lawyers have facilitated settlements and served as arbitrators, facilitators, mediators and other neutrals in hundreds of cases from coast-to-coast as well as internationally.
