About
Provided by Hinckley Allen
Serious disputes demand serious litigators. Hinckley Allen's Litigation Group brings seasoned trial attorneys and former federal prosecutors to the full spectrum of complex matters, representing corporations, individuals, insurers, nonprofits, and government entities in courts across the country.
The team draws on deep collaboration across practice groups, including construction, complex commercial litigation, white collar, intellectual property, cybersecurity, and product liability, assembling the right combination of experience for each matter.
Recent engagements reflect that range. The team secured a $34.5 million recovery in the largest documented Sarbanes-Oxley whistleblower retaliation judgment in the statute's history. In Massachusetts, it delivered a complete patent victory after proving an opponent had intentionally misled the USPTO. In Rhode Island, it successfully challenged the constitutionality of legislation authorizing public access to private beachfront property — a ruling with lasting implications for property rights in the region.
Hinckley Allen has grown deliberately, adding former federal prosecutors and preeminent trial lawyers across its offices to meet client needs where they arise.
The result is a litigation practice that is sophisticated, collaborative, and built to win.
