Litigation
Tireless advocates when you need them most
Nelson Mullins combines industry experience, a command of case management, trial skills, technology, and creativity to achieve results.
Our attorneys have represented clients in courtrooms across the United States, including state, federal, bankruptcy, and probate courts. We have also appeared before major arbitration panels and are active in appellate work. Encompass, a division of the firm, provides discovery and review counsel in large proceedings.
National and regional litigation counsel
We have served as national and regional litigation counsel to numerous clients, including pharmaceutical companies and manufacturers, consumer products, medical device manufacturers, automobile manufacturers, national chemical companies, major hotel chains, and many more.
In managing high-profile business disputes, the firm also guides clients on company responses for interrelated government investigations, congressional inquiries, and on public relations and board-level communications strategies.
Litigation from ADR to White Collar Defense
Our clients include Fortune 50 companies, privately held companies, businesses with global operations, and businesses in heavily regulated industries.
An e-discovery approach embraced by Fortune 200 clients
A division of the firm, Encompass is not simply about delivering a set of documents and technologies. We are zealous advocates for our clients. We help you develop strategies and implement processes that are verifiable, defensible, and repeatable - so that when an investigation or litigation strikes, you are ready.
We use advanced review tools and measures such as technology assisted review (TAR), relativity assisted review (RAR), and other advanced analytics measures. We address the scope of review, negotiate discovery protocols, and minimize business disruption and burdens.
We take an integrated approach to working with your in-house team and case counsel to understand the legal, business, and technology issues you face and bring efficiencies and defensibility to your practices.
Seeking relief from the high cost of litigation
The firm’s business litigators have experience representing clients in mediations, providing alternative dispute resolution services in federal and state courts, before administrative agencies, and before arbitration panels administered by AAA, JAMs, the National Arbitration Forum, the World Intellectual Property Organization, and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA).
We are familiar with the special rules and procedures for each. The firm has litigated the enforceability of arbitration agreements on numerous occasions, as well as litigated whether class-wide relief could be sought in arbitration proceedings.
Focused and persuasive advocacy in the appellate courts
Firm attorneys regularly appear before state and federal appellate courts around the country, including filing amicus curiae briefs on behalf of industry groups.
The firm’s appellate practitioners include former judicial law clerks, who bring to clients an understanding of the internal operating procedures of the courts and a sensitivity to the public policy role of the appellate courts.
