Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher

This past year Gibson, Dunn & Crutcher won a $3 billion verdict for HP against Oracle at trial in Santa Clara Superior Court, a sanctions order terminating a case against client AEW Capital Management, and a more than $37 million verdict for Aetna Inc. in an overbilling case against a group of Bay Area surgical centers. That record landed the firm, a perennial litigation power, a runner-up spot in The Recorder’s 2017 Litigation Department of the Year competition.
