Skilled and Insightful Commercial Litigator

Julian Cokic handled a complex breach of contract dispute for my business with remarkable expertise. His background in commercial litigation and investigations was evident in how he strategically approached the case, leveraging his experience from The Lanier Law Firm to secure a favorable outcome. While his legal acumen and attention to detail were outstanding, the only minor downside was the occasional delay in responding to emails. That said, his deep understanding of commercial disputes and his recognition by Best Lawyers: Ones to Watch (2026) speaks volumes about his capabilities. I would recommend Julian for any high-stakes business litigation matters and appreciate his proactive approach throughout the process.
