Describe your firm’s approach to litigation and your strategy for building successful teams for trials or other matters. We focus on helping our clients meet their business goals. We have first-class litigators who can tap into the subject matter expertise of a fully integrated law firm to craft a targeted strategy tailored to meet each client’s goals. The types of matters we handle typically involve lean, hands-on teams that regularly operate under tight deadlines, take ownership over matters and offer early-case assessments. We also encourage our attorneys to consistently communicate with and leverage our clients’ subject matter expertise to ensure that our approach and strategy are in line with our clients’ expectations and goals throughout the litigation process.

Discuss the two biggest litigation cases your firm worked on in 2019 and how you reached successful outcomes. In one of the highest-profile national security cases of 2019, our white-collar and appellate teams partnered to secure an acquittal on all counts following a 1 1/2-week trial for Bijan Rafiekian, a former business partner of ex-National Security Advisor Michael Flynn, who had been charged in a federal grand jury indictment with conspiracy to act as an unlawful foreign agent in the United States.
