Band 1

Mark Hansen has built a formidable practice representing clients in antitrust cases, breach of contract claims and IP disputes.

He is viewed as a dean of the Bar.

Mark is a brilliant trial lawyer. He has the talent and intellectual capacity to dig into the most complicated cases, focus on the 10% that matters and ensure that his client's position is presented as effectively as possible.

Mark is without a doubt the single best litigator in the country. He has been litigating cases for 40 years and his ability to know the type of cross-examination to win a case is second to none. He knows whether to go technical or argumentative.

Mark is a great trial lawyer.

Band 3

Derek Ho litigates high-stakes commercial cases, often with several billions of dollars at stake. He has helped clients obtain large judgments through trial or settlement. As both an experienced trial litigator and a seasoned appellate advocate, Derek represents plaintiffs and defendants in all phases of litigation.

He is the kind of litigator you want on all your cases. He is smart, efficient and gets great results.

Derek is a brilliant lawyer, and sometimes even more importantly, is that steady and reliable hand whose presence on a case immediately assures clients that everything will be okay.

I am impressed with how Derek crafts the narrative of the case and he can deliver a closing argument that is incredibly moving. He is an incredibly deep thinker who is also able to connect with people from all walks of life.
