Trial Counsel

Strategic advocacy that pursues sensible settlements when possible, and delivers focused, experienced trial representation when it counts.

What We Do

At CMBG³, we recognize the economics posed by expensive lawsuits and remain flexible to leverage opportunities that arise before and during trial. Regardless of resources, one of the biggest concerns most clients have is avoiding costly court battles. Where appropriate, we encourage the use of mediation to bring quick resolution to complex litigation and reduce the costs associated with trial. When alternative dispute procedures prove unproductive, however, our top-rated trial attorneys are prepared to protect your interests and secure the “win” that our clients have come to expect.

The CMBG³ Trial Division’s attorneys practice in offices throughout the country, including Boston, New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. The Division’s trial attorneys have successfully secured jury trial victories in a wide range of complex disputes. Our considerable experience enables us to build the most qualified and formidable trial team, regardless of where the case is tried or the credentials of opposing counsel.
