One key to our success in achieving favorable results for our clients is our outstanding attorneys. They come from a wide variety of backgrounds and include former law clerks for the United States Supreme Court, Courts of Appeal, and District Courts, law review editors, and authors of leading articles in several substantive legal fields. We are also proud to have within our ranks lawyers who have achieved public recognition for their commitment to pro bono matters and who have argued leading cases in numerous fields. The firms' lawyers also speak frequently at seminars and symposia, are media commentators, and teach at several leading institutions, including Harvard, USC and UCLA.
We also believe that we are unusual for a firm of our size in having a legal staff that is accomplished not only in the law, but in many other areas. Among our lawyers we boast a best-selling author (Pierce O'Donnell, who has also authored screenplays, history and poetry).
