Foster Pepper’s Litigation Practice Group is one of the most effective in the Northwest. Our attorneys provide a broad scope of services and have extensive experience in the issues affecting our clients. This allows us to build the best team for resolving the particular challenges faced by our client. As we enter our second century of practice, we bring a client-focused vision, experience, innovation, and teamwork to solve your legal matters. While we represent some of the most prominent companies and local governments, we take pride in serving many individuals and small businesses.
Our litigators are a diverse group who focus on understanding our clients, their business and mission and their objectives in addressing particular disputes. Our lawyers resolve disputes before administrative tribunals, political boards, and trial and appellate courts in the state and federal systems throughout the Pacific Northwest and beyond. We apply substantive expertise ranging from insurance policyholder law to antitrust/trade regulation, intellectual property law to real property law, construction law to defense of securities and consumer class actions. We tailor our approach to each case, drawing on a wealth of experience in motion practice, alternative dispute resolution and trying cases to judges and juries.
Foster Pepper litigators work with clients to assess their needs at the outset of a new case, exploring possible settlement or alternative dispute resolution, developing strategies for discovery and trial, and preparing a detailed budget when appropriate. Consistent with this client-contact approach, we use technology to manage discovery costs and to ensure that we are easily accessible and provide our clients access to case documents and status with tools like the client-and-matter specific extranets.
