Exceptional Counsel in Complex Commercial Litigation

Our company faced a high-stakes, multi-million dollar contract dispute with a former business partner that threatened to derail our operations. The complexity of the case, involving nuanced interpretations of state commercial law and potential antitrust implications, demanded an attorney with both deep expertise and strategic foresight. We were fortunate to engage Philip Williamson at Taft. From our first consultation, his command of the material was evident. He didn't just recite legal principles; he explained the commercial realities behind them, mapping out a clear and pragmatic path forward. His background, including his recognition in Commercial Litigation and Antitrust Law, was not just a line on a profile—it translated directly into a superior litigation strategy. Philip and his team conducted exhaustive discovery, built an unassailable factual record, and crafted compelling legal arguments that ultimately led to a highly favorable settlement just before trial. Throughout the 18-month process, his communication was consistently clear, direct, and timely. He managed our expectations without sugarcoating challenges, and his professionalism under pressure was remarkable. Philip Williamson is precisely the caliber of attorney you hope to find in Cincinnati for serious business litigation. His combination of sharp intellect, practical experience, and unwavering dedication to client success is truly exceptional.
