We serve corporations and business entrepreneurs across a broad range of business disputes and civil litigation. Our litigation team is known best for its commitment to quality representation, and assumes that each case will go to trial and that each verdict will be appealed. Whether a client is investigating a claim, getting ready for trial or engaged in an appeal, our litigation team is prepared for the challenge.
The firm is frequently engaged in bet-the-company litigation pending in various forums from federal and state courts to actions before the United States International Trade Commission. We have been there. We have done that. We have succeeded.
Philosophy
McDole & Williams attorneys all share a strong work ethic, believing that the best way to achieve a client’s objectives is to know the client, know the facts, know the law and, importantly, know the opponent. We also recognize that performance and presentation can be just as important as content and substance. McDole & Williams attorneys combine form and substance to produce quality work product.
Preparation
Our work ethic is unparalleled. We prepare each case as if it were going to trial, which increases the opportunity for an early, favorable pre-trial resolution. If the case must be tried, we’re ready.
Results
We bring a cost-effective and results-effective focus to all cases, regardless of size or amount in controversy. Whether it’s a complex antitrust case, multi-district tort litigation, patent infringement case, employee theft of trade secrets action, or a basic breach of contract, McDole & Williams attorneys will focus on accomplishing the client’s objectives efficiently.
Efficiency
We zealously represent our clients in litigation with a steady eye on the bottom line in terms of costs and desired results. We use best practices in project management to ensure a level of predictability and cost control for our clients. Our fee structures reflect the individual client’s needs and objectives, with options for traditional hourly billing at competitive rates, fixed/flat fee arrangements, project billing, and other fee arrangements.
