Litigation
The nearly 430 lawyers of BakerHostetler’s Litigation Practice Group possess solid judgment skills to guide our clients toward the best decisions for their businesses. We partner with clients and invest time to deeply understand their unique needs, helping them anticipate and prepare for problems before they occur and acting quickly and decisively when urgent assistance is needed.
Big-Case Success
We are proud of the work we’ve done as counsel to the Securities Investor Protection Act Trustee for the global liquidation of Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities, one of the world’s largest and most complicated financial frauds in history. Our work on these Madoff cases, for which we have recovered approximately $15.5 billion to date, has given us the infrastructure and additional experience to manage the hundreds of complex, high-value, high-stakes cases that our clients continue to trust us with.
