We tailor our advocacy to your needs. Our legal teams develop a personal knowledge and appreciation of your organization’s business and culture as well as your product design, testing and quality control procedures. We develop a deep understanding of the technical and scientific principles applicable to your products. We field a team of trial lawyers, paralegals, investigators and experts devoted to your case from start to finish. We individualize our communication with you, the in-house lawyers and engineers who provide critical perspectives, experiences and skills to the defense team.
We are not “litigators” who work up cases for months and years in the fervent hope of never having to spend a minute in front of a jury. At Bowman and Brooke, we love the courtroom, relish trying cases and we are at home in front of a jury. That’s why our clients, who include some of the largest companies in the world, come to us. However, we also understand that scorched earth litigation or trial is often not the best way to resolve conflicts. In defending those cases that should not be tried, our reputation for trying cases is an advantage. Our opponents know that settlement is not a foregone conclusion with Bowman and Brooke — thus we can expeditiously identify, evaluate and resolve the cases that should settle.
In addition to having tried hundreds of individual lawsuits in 48 states, Canada, Puerto Rico, the U.S. Virgin Islands and several Canadian provinces, we serve as national and regional counsel for more than a dozen household name clients, handling pattern litigation and discovery wherever and whenever our clients need us.
In the process, we have developed the tools and resources to manage lawsuits and claims efficiently. We have gathered the background material necessary to cross-examine expert witnesses who frequently appear for plaintiffs, and we have assembled an impressive array of defense experts who are most knowledgeable on the issues our clients face.
With product liability litigation, there’s a lot on the line. A pending case is no time to take chances with your counsel. Insist on a firm with an established reputation, one who has served top corporations, a firm with a national presence, one with a proven trial history. Insist on Bowman and Brooke.
