Litigation
XLP attorneys have argued in almost every scenario, from small dollar value cases in front of state trial courts, to multimillion-dollar disputes in Federal court; our attorneys have appeared before state Supreme Courts, Federal appeals courts, procurement appeal boards, regulatory agency panels, and participated in binding arbitrations. This broad experience base gives XLP attorneys the advantage of understanding the decision-making dynamics of juries as well judges. Litigation is almost always a last resort, and when clients must decide to litigate, they need the sharp, focused and seasoned attorneys of XLP.
Understanding the costs and risks of litigation is as important a competency for a litigator as argument at trial. XLP attorneys understand the disruption and loss that can be associate with complex civil litigation. Helping clients decide when to litigate, and when to avoid litigation, is always the threshold analysis that XLP attorneys undertake to serve their litigation clients.
