Skilled and Strategic Advocate for Complex Business Disputes

I engaged John Berlinski at Bird, Marella to handle a significant breach of contract and intellectual property dispute for my small tech firm in San Jose. The opposing party was a much larger entity, and the situation felt overwhelming. From our first meeting, John’s methodical approach was evident. He leveraged his recognized expertise in commercial litigation and IP to deconstruct their claims and build a formidable counter-strategy. His background from The University of Michigan Law School and his firm’s resources were clear assets. What stood out was his understanding of the nuances in our specific technology sector, which went beyond generic legal advice. We achieved a settlement that protected our core IP and was far more favorable than I anticipated. The one area for slight improvement is that during the busiest phases, communication could sometimes take a day to receive a substantive update, which given the stakes, created some anxiety. However, when we did connect, his analysis was always worth the wait. I would confidently recommend John for any business facing complex litigation in the Bay Area.
