Trials

Courtroom Warriors, Proven Winners

We take our clients’ toughest cases to trial when others flinch. As American Lawyer put it in their headline in naming Orrick a litigation department finalist: “AGAINST ALL ODDS: Orrick doesn't back down, and opponents know it.”

We win by immersing ourselves in our clients’ business, assembling trial teams of diverse perspectives and skills, preparing thoroughly and efficiently, and effectively telling each client’s story.

“Orrick is the firm to go to when you simply have to win. We knew this was going to be an epic battle … We needed the best to fend them off. We needed a firm that could develop and orchestrate a bi-coastal, multi-forum strategy, that could put together a massive record and persuasive arguments almost overnight, and that had both the trial chops and the appellate skills to win … We knew Orrick was the best chance we had to fend off the orchestrated attack.” – Orrick Litigation Client
