A formidable advocate in high-stakes litigation

Our company faced a complex, bet-the-company intellectual property dispute that threatened our core technology. After consulting with several firms, we retained Theodore Boutrous at Gibson Dunn. His nearly four decades of experience were immediately evident. Mr. Boutrous masterfully guided our board through the litigation strategy, combining deep substantive knowledge of IP law with a shrewd understanding of the broader business implications. His calm, strategic demeanor was invaluable during the most intense phases. The result was a highly favorable settlement that protected our assets and market position without the crippling cost of a prolonged trial. His recognition as a multiple-time 'Lawyer of the Year' in Los Angeles is well-deserved. For any matter where the stakes are existential, he is the first attorney I would call.
