Building a Team for Complex Litigation

Supporting Complex Litigation: McConnell Lipton’s consultants are experienced in all phases of complex litigation, from initial case planning through motion practice, discovery, depositions, trial planning, witness preparation, jury selection, trial presentation, and appeal. Based upon our Firm Philosophy, our goal is to supplement the efforts of a law firm to build a team for each particular matter by providing the necessary skills that the firm may not already possess sufficiently in-house. General practice, solo practitioners and smaller law firms, or those attorneys not well-versed or experienced in a particular matter, especially may find themselves suddenly overwhelmed or under-staffed when asked to take on a unique, large or complex matter for a client.

Case Specific Team Building: Litigation often requires a team approach. Rather than undertaking the commitment of increasing staff permanently or referring the case elsewhere, it may be preferable to draw on outside resources to assemble a team solely to meet the needs of a single case. Our ability to supplement a firm’s forces on a temporary, case-by-case, or even task-by-task basis allows the firm to take on new matters without having to incur the cost of expanding staff permanently or sacrificing fees to be earned in a large case. It is to provide just such a resource that McConnell Lipton established Consultants to Lawyers to offer its Services.
