Trial Practices

A Drama In Real Life, In Real Time.

Trials are like staging a play, with an unpredictable audience, little rehearsal, and no second chances. We understand these dynamics and know how to use them to our client’s benefit.

The art of effective advocacy, written and oral, is what we do. We actually try cases. Lots of cases. Something that many lawyers with a litigation practice seldom do. All of our lawyers share something in common, a personality and character that allows them to relate to jurors, witnesses, and clients from every background and perspective.

We play the role of translators, understanding our client’s case and fashioning the most effective way possible to communicate that to our audience, whether it is a jury, a single judge, or a panel of judges in an appellate court.

Robert Christie has tried scores of cases in diverse jurisdictions, state and federal court, over a quarter century of trial practice. He has argued hundreds of successful summary judgment motions that resolved cases in his client’s favor before ever getting to trial. Partners Jason Rosen and Tom Miller have prevailed on scores of summary judgment motions and have tried several cases each, ranging from employment discrimination to wrongful death. This depth of real courtroom experience is our stock in trade. And your peace of mind.
