We also maintain strategic relationships with preferred e-discovery providers, which allows us to deploy best-in-class technology for processing, hosting and producing electronically stored information.
Our experience spans complex commercial litigation, product liability litigation, securities class actions and general commercial disputes, as well as government and regulatory investigations by the Department of Justice, Securities Exchange Commission, Commodities Futures Trading Commission and other agencies.
