I engaged Stephanie Xiao at Hueston Hennigan during a high-stakes partnership dispute that involved both contractual breaches and allegations of financial misconduct. Her dual recognition in Commercial Litigation and White-Collar Defense was immediately evident. She expertly navigated the overlap between civil liability and potential regulatory scrutiny, crafting a defense strategy that addressed both fronts seamlessly. Her analysis was sharp, grounded in the specifics of California law, and she communicated complex legal concepts with clarity. While her billing structure is commensurate with her expertise and the firm's prestige, which required careful budget management on our end, the value was clear. Stephanie's guidance was instrumental in achieving a favorable settlement that protected my business and personal reputation. I would confidently recommend her for intricate matters where business and potential criminal exposure intersect.
