We solve complex, high-stakes disputes for multinational corporations, investment firms, executives, and entrepreneurs.

Parachuting into crisis moments at the 11th hour, we are engaged when exposure is imminent, missteps are irreversible, and winning seems impossible. Whether the stakes involve bet-the-company exposure or equity forfeiture, we are known to deliver asymmetric wins.

• Maximize Economics: Boosted severance offers by 228% and equity stakes by 389%.

  Neutralize Exposure: Slashed assignee demands by 90% and employment claims by 70%.

  Preserve Value: Resolved high-stakes disputes pre-litigation in days to weeks.

Our pre-litigation settlements read like jury verdicts.

Three days before the closing of a $10M merger, we blocked a CEO’s attempt to use a “for-cause” termination to clawback a founding engineer’s vested equity ($233K) and inverted the clawback into a $1.14M settlement from the company.       

Against a $7B investment firm, we negotiated a $43,000 severance offer—for a “performance” termination—into a $141,000 exit package with 100% carry.           

Against the famed New York nightclub the Brooklyn Mirage, we turned a no-severance termination into a $45,000 settlement in 12 days pre-litigation.

Defense that deters.

In our view, defense that does not deter is merely kicking the can down the road. Defensive maneuvers should not only resolve the current matter but warn against others, providing clients with lasting peace of mind.

In a 10-count California FEHA lawsuit seeking $100,000, we reduced the client’s exposure to $30,000 while the co-defendant funded the balance.*
