Litigation

Overview

With more than 360 litigators in offices coast to coast, we represent market-leading clients in virtually every type of case and proceeding, nationally and around the world. If an effective settlement is not possible, we will aggressively represent your interests at trial. We have the credentials you expect from a leading national litigation firm, and companies have turned to us for decades to protect them in and out of court. Whether you are involved in a national or global dispute, facing litigation in federal or state courts, going in front of a judge or jury, or appearing at an arbitration forum or before an administrative agency, we have the experience and resolve to see you through to a winning result.

Our Approach

BakerHostetler was named a “go-to law firm” for litigation by Corporate Counsel® magazine’s general counsel survey of in-house law departments at the nation’s top companies. The key to our effectiveness is our commitment to learning every aspect of our clients’ business needs to meet their broader objectives. We handle complex matters through trial and appeal, and understand that winning takes many forms, from successfully defending clients to asserting their rights as plaintiffs. For each client, large or small, we utilize the full resources of our national litigation practice, as well as the multidisciplinary strengths of our entire firm.

Our People

Our litigators are former prosecutors, veteran civil trial lawyers and former enforcement officials from various agencies, with credentials that have won them inclusion in Best Lawyers in America and Chambers USA: America’s Leading Lawyers for Business, as well as fellowship in the American College of Trial Lawyers. They are nationally regarded for their pre-litigation strategies and decisions and their ability to prepare, try and win cases.

Our Capabilities

Our ability to handle large, complex litigation matters has been in the national spotlight because of BakerHostetler’s representation of the SIPA Trustee for the liquidation of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC (BLMIS). Since 2008, BakerHostetler has been unraveling, deconstructing and litigating one of the largest and most complex financial frauds in U.S. history – Bernard L. Madoff’s decades-long Ponzi scheme. The SIPA Trustee’s unprecedented success in this global investigation and litigation is largely based on the legal strategy and case management overseen by our attorneys, who bring a wide range of experience to this matter, including business litigation, bankruptcy law, white collar criminal investigation, securities litigation, e-discovery and corporate finance. As of April 2016, the SIPA Trustee and his counsel have succeeded in recovering more than $11.129 billion and distributing more than $8.604 billion to victims in the Madoff Recovery Initiative (www.madofftrustee.com). This recovery far exceeds any prior restitution effort related to Ponzi schemes in terms of both dollars and percentage of stolen funds recovered.

  • Our Commercial Litigation Team comprised of 100+ lawyers across 14 offices defends clients in high stakes, bet the company matters. In late 2016, the team represented a global engineering company in an indemnity case arising out of the 2009 explosion of a food manufacturing plant in Garner, North Carolina. Following a four-week jury trial, the jury returned a verdict of $108.9 million in favor of the client, two times the amount of the largest verdict in Nebraska at that time. This verdict was recognized by the National Law Journal as a “Top 50 Verdict” of 2016 in its Elite Trial Lawyers report.
  • Our Antitrust and Competition Team received a national first chair ranking from Best Lawyers in America, and was named a “top team working in the hub of antitrust law” by Global Competition Review . With more than 40 antitrust lawyers firmwide, we have successfully tried numerous antitrust and competition cases to verdict, and have represented both plaintiffs and defendants in antitrust and competition litigation, including class action lawsuits. We also advise clients on all aspects of their businesses and successfully help them navigate the merger review process, frequently obtaining clearance of transactions without government investigations.
  • Our White Collar Defense and Corporate Investigations Team, named Law360 “White Collar Group of the Year” in 2014, represents Fortune 50 companies, major hedge funds and individuals facing government scrutiny. Our lawyers have served as a United States attorney, assistant United States attorneys, assistant district attorneys and SEC enforcement attorneys. Their experience has proven invaluable not only in representing clients in dealings with the SEC, DOJ, IRS, FTC and other federal and state agencies, but also in advising corporations on compliance implementation and testing. BakerHostetler has also been repeatedly selected to conduct complex monitorships for world-leading financial institutions such as Merrill Lynch, Bank of New York and Mellon Bank.
  • Named Law360 “Class Action Group of the Year” in 2014, our Class Action Team has defended more than 200 national and state class actions for major corporations in more than 25 states in the last five years. We aggressively defend against class certification, and in the event the class is certified, we are prepared to try the case to judgment.
  • Our Securities Litigation and Regulatory Enforcement Team features over 40 prominent attorneys with a wealth of knowledge and legal experience in the fields of securities litigation; SEC, CFTC and FINRA investigations and enforcement proceedings and examinerships; regulatory and compliance legal services for regulated entities; and internal investigations.
  • BakerHostetler’s dedicated 80-attorney Energy Team, named Law360 “Energy Group of the Year” in 2015, understands the industry’s rapidly evolving regulatory, legal and political climate. It has experience across all the proven shale plays and has an unmatched ability to represent clients at all points in the life cycle of energy development. Lawyers on our energy team have technical degrees and have worked in-house with major energy companies.
  • Unlike most law firms, our firm’s E-Discovery Advocacy and Management Team is led by seasoned trial lawyers who understand how information is used in litigation. Our advocacy controls costs, risks and burdens by limiting the scope of discovery. We defensibly deploy emerging technologies like predictive coding to cut through the noise of large data sets. We also build practical preservation and litigation response plans, and defend against claims of intentional or inadvertent loss of data. From sophisticated keyword screens to data categorization and clustering to technology-assisted review, we have negotiated and won court approval of sophisticated approaches to search and review. Our experience in the courtroom coupled with our ability to break down complex technological issues has saved many of our clients hundreds of thousands of dollars or more in individual cases.
