Our reputation as a leader in complex business and corporate litigation is built by lawyers who are experienced and successful in trying major lawsuits to conclusion. As a result, our trial lawyers have been called upon to represent clients in many of the most complicated and challenging lawsuits in the state and federal courts of North Carolina. Among those courts is the North Carolina Business Court, a specialized forum with its headquarters in Greensboro, to which complex business cases are assigned by the Chief Justice. Beyond North Carolina, we recently have appeared in complex business and corporate litigation in the South Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, Texas, Massachusetts, New York, Arkansas, Tennessee, the District of Columbia and Delaware. We also represent our clients in all of the alternative dispute resolution processes, including arbitration and mediation.
Brooks Pierce's involvement in complex business litigation often includes representation of clients in the major class actions brought in North Carolina and elsewhere in the Southeast. Frequently, this has involved defending class actions brought by the nationally-known class action plaintiffs' firms. In addition to cases certified as class actions, we also have defended clients involved in multiple individual lawsuits - dozens and sometimes hundreds - arising out of a common event or repeated corporate practice. Our trial lawyers thus have the experience and knowledge needed to litigate even the largest and most far-flung class actions and multiple plaintiff lawsuits. Through our use of technology and careful staffing, we do so in a cost-effective manner.
Brooks Pierce is a firm of trial lawyers, with nearly half of all our attorneys involved in our trial and appellate work. This gives us significant depth at all levels of our trial practice. Our trial lawyers are recognized by state, national, and international organizations and publications as being among the very best lawyers in North Carolina. Many of our trial lawyers are former judicial clerks for both federal and state judges. This breadth of talent allows us to staff every case uniquely and efficiently. The result of this and the current technology we use is consistently outstanding, cost-effective service to our clients.
Another strength of our firm in handling complex business disputes is that we are constantly updating our information and document management systems and other technical resources so that we can handle class actions and "collective" disputes efficiently. Our complex litigation paralegals have many years of experience in cases involving millions of pages of documents, thus allowing Brooks Pierce to capably manage even the largest and most complex class actions while providing cost-effective representation to our clients and their insurance carriers.
Brooks Pierce has expertise in all aspects of business litigation, including Antitrust Litigation, Securities Litigation, Environmental Litigation, and Professional Liability Litigation.
