About
Provided by Robinson Gray Stepp & Laffitte, LLC
Robinson Gray’s business litigators handle a wide variety of issues, including both complex commercial litigation and resolution of disputes. Our experience ranges from securities litigation, banking and financial services litigation, class actions, intellectual property, insurance disputes, business torts, real property and title insurance, to all types of commercial disputes and corporate counseling. We regularly litigate in all state and federal courts in South Carolina. We have experience as both corporate plaintiff’s counsel and defendant corporation counsel.
Each lawsuit is unique, and we design an individually tailored plan for each case. If consistent with our clients’ goals, we look for opportunities to resolve matters at early stages with win-win solutions. Because complex litigation can be costly, we look for the claims that can be defeated early and help our clients prioritize resources.
While the majority of cases are ultimately settled, we pride ourselves on our courtroom experience. Our lawyers defended one of the longest non-jury trials in S.C. history and have handled a variety of jury trials to verdict. We are experienced with the collection, organization, and production of documents on a large scale. We recognize the effectiveness of trial preparation and presentation technology. We staff our cases with experienced lawyers who know the legal or industry subject matter of the case and support our lawyers with competent support personnel.
