Commercial Litigation & Disputes
Winston represents clients in virtually every type of dispute that could arise from operating a business. While our primary objective is to protect our clients from the need to engage in litigation and enter the courtroom, we take pride in our heavyweight litigation experience and the knowledge that corporate America has repeatedly retained us not just for “bet-the-company” trials, but for “bet-the-industry” cases as well. Our commercial litigators’ track record of success earned the team a national Tier 1 ranking in Best Law Firms® 2023. Our practice is anchored by seasoned litigators, many of whom have been recognized by in-house counsel and their peers as top practitioners in their fields.

Trial skills matter—even in a world where few disputes ever see the inside of a courtroom. Winston has built a reputation as a trial lawyers’ firm, featuring seasoned litigators who leverage extensive courtroom experience to meet our clients’ business and legal objectives. Our long history of taking cases to trial—and winning—provides our clients with tremendous settlement leverage with their adversaries, as well as a substantial likelihood of a favorable resolution if, and when, they go to trial.
