Overview
Putting to use the many decades of trial experience our litigators have come to possess, our attorneys are available to provide oversight counsel and monitor ongoing litigation for clients in any industry. As monitoring counsel, we establish a meaningful dialogue with both the client and defense counsel, provide an independent review and analysis of the case as well as our opinion of the strength of the case and likely outcome. We follow the progress of the matter, evaluate the underlying facts and circumstances of the case, assess liability and damage exposures, estimate the costs that would be incurred in defending the claim to a litigated conclusion, and develop and implement a cost-effective resolution strategy in collaboration with the defense counsel. In conducting an investigation and analysis as monitoring counsel, we review pleadings and motion papers, analyze deposition testimony, and may also do an on-site inspection of the client’s facility. Our extensive trail experience also enables us to assume control of pending litigation when necessary.
