We also are experienced representing clients in arbitrations before the ICC International Court of Arbitration, the American Arbitration Association, and other alternative dispute resolution fora.
While we spare no effort to win on the law without a trial, our experienced trial lawyers know how to battle not just on paper but, if necessary, in the courtroom, and they know how to win. When opponents understand they are up against a capable trial team that is not afraid to try a case, it frequently becomes easier to reach a reasonable settlement and do so earlier in the process.
Success in civil litigation requires not only an experienced trial team, but exceptional appellate lawyers. Throughout their careers, our appellate lawyers, both in government and private practice, have briefed and argued intricate, high-stakes cases in the country’s highest courts, including the Supreme Court, and have the experience and firepower to handle the most complex legal issues.
Our litigators have decades of experience litigating critical business disputes between private parties. These have involved a wide array of subject areas -- including antitrust, intellectual property, business torts, defamation, securities, and contractual disputes – across numerous industry sectors, including energy, technology, telecommunications, health care, media, and construction.
In addition to commercial disputes, Torridon’s lawyers have particular expertise and deep experience litigating cases arising from government regulation. (See Regulatory Advocacy and Litigation.)
Several of our lawyers held the senior positions in the federal government responsible for authoritatively interpreting, for the executive branch, the requirements of the Constitution, statutes, and regulations, and are particularly expert at pursuing constitutional and statutory challenges to governmental administrative action at the federal, state and local level.
