Litigation: General Commercial

About

Provided by McDermott Will & Emery LLP

California general commercial litigation practice is consistently delivering visible results for high profile clients on complex, high value disputes.

The practice has substantial courtroom experience, at every level, from arbitration, through to petitioning the Supreme Court for certiorari. On several occasions McDermott has been brought in at the last minute on high stakes litigations that have gone awry, and we achieved successful results.

McDermott has a track record with high value disputes involving business critical IP, one of the few firms in the state to achieve this kind of prominence. Given the fast evolving nature of technology and innovation, and the implications for a business of infringement or theft of IP, this is a litigation hot spot for California, now and for decades to come. The need for exceptional trial lawyers to deal with the damages components of IP cases is one we have been swift to identify and respond to.

The practice has achieved a very visible profile, it is the high value, high stakes nature of the team’s successes that provides this kind of visibility, attracting the most discerning clients looking for creative litigation strategies and successful results.

McDermott is frequently hired by law firms and named partners to defend against claims and investigations. Being a first choice for those who are easily the most sophisticated buyers of legal services, is an indicator of the credibility the team has among peers in the state.
