Who We Are

ALC was founded to help the small to medium sized company faced with high stakes litigation, particularly one without a corporate legal department. ALC can also assist a corporate legal department that is overtaxed by other corporate legal matters or needs complex litigation expertise.

ALC specializes in providing management services for critical and complex litigation, including intellectual property cases. ALC ensures that key decisions are identified and that necessary information is acquired and considered. ALC monitors the case and insures that schedules are met. ALC will provide "second opinion" advice and contribute to strategic, tactical and legal analysis of the issues.

An important decision in "bet the company" litigation is the choice of a team to run the case. Litigation is won or lost as the result of skills - the skills of each lawyer, and even the paralegals. Of equal importance are the testifying experts and the other technical consultants. A case can be damaged by anyone on the team who doesn't have the right skills. ALC has the experience to assemble the best team.

Law firms have their own business imperatives. Their decisions on staffing, schedules, and even strategy can be affected by their own objectives. ALC is there to insure that the client's interests are protected. ALC's experience permits it to identify the important decisions.

ALC provides confirmation of adequate progress or early warning of problems. If adjustments must be made, ALC can smooth the transition and minimize the loss of acquired knowledge in the case. While cost containment may be less important than winning in bet the company litigation, ALC also offers strategies for reducing expense.

ALC contributes insight from years of experience in law firms representing clients in crucial litigation. We are committed to ensuring that our clients receive the best possible representation.
