MY CLIENT PHILOSOPHY

"Client goals are rarely monolithic or static. It is critical to understand how a complex litigation may impact the various stakeholders within the client organization, and how those stakeholders' needs may evolve in response to both market changes and litigation events. Every client interaction — not just those with senior executives — provides critical information that can help outside counsel refine strategy and improve the likelihood of a positive outcome."
