Book excerpt: This unique book presents the advice of eminent members of the profession on managing their practice areas. In keeping with Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.'s observation that "the life of the law has not been logic; it has been experience," it offers experienced guidance from practitioners with different perspectives and areas of expertise. Litigation Management discusses litigation techniques from every standpoint. Topics covered include: in-house counsel's views on costs, litigation risk, litigation manager standards, and the changing legal economy; plaintiff's attorney's strategies for case assessment, discovery and trial (because "knowing your enemy" can yield tangible benefits for defense counsel); multidistrict litigation; management of class actions; litigating against the federal government; jury selection and how juries think and work; arbitration; and more. Throughout, Litigation Management deals with the practical implications of substantive law and procedure for lawyers working on the front lines. It's a complete framework for managing your case to victory.
Download or read book The Distruptive Lawyer s Little Black Book of Litigation Management written by William T. Mitchell and published by . This book was released on 2016-04-13 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It all started in 1996 when a client took a chance and called Bill with a simple message: "Here's your opportunity. Our regular lawyer has a conflict. Before the conflict, that lawyer said this case was a winner on a motion for summary judgment (MSJ) and provided a $70,000 fee budget. If you can get rid of it efficiently, I will send you more cases."With this incentive, Bill assessed the new case and agreed it was an MSJ case. But, rather than serving discovery and taking depositions, he went a different direction. He set out to convince the plaintiff's counsel to dismiss the case against his client due to its lack of merit and instead direct his attention to the other case defendants. It worked, and Bill secured a voluntary dismissal from the plaintiff's counsel without any discovery. The fee was less than $5,000, and the case was closed within six weeks of the assignment.While some might say the law firm "lost $65,000" by not litigating the case, they would be dead wrong. This result and the process that produced it led to hundreds of cases and were instrumental in growing the firm from four lawyers in Georgia to over fifty attorneys across several states. The goal remains to be the Disruptive Lawyer who consistently produces excellent results as defined by clients' specific performance goals.
