Litigation

First, we are skilled at resolving disputes of all kinds. We have an uncommon breadth and depth of experience in litigation, arbitration, mediation and negotiation. Our litigators routinely practice before federal and state trial and appellate courts, regulatory and administrative agencies, and arbitration panels.

Second, we don’t just “litigate;” we prepare each case as if it were going to trial. We develop case themes early and then marshal the facts and legal arguments that make these themes effective. Bingham McHale attorneys are battle-tested advocates who know how to communicate with judges, juries and arbitrators.

Third, we are practical. Whether our client is a Fortune 100 company, an entrepreneurial start-up, or an individual, we focus on the client’s objectives. Sometimes the best solution avoids a lawsuit or trial. Bingham McHale attorneys help clients evaluate the costs, benefits and risks of litigation. We believe that our reputation of being prepared to present a case in court often leads to settlement. And, once settlement is on the table, Bingham McHale attorneys are skilled negotiators who work to achieve the desired result.

Finally, we believe in professionalism. We treat adversaries and opposing counsel with respect, and strive to win the right way – through the hard work of clear and honest advocacy. We believe our peers have noticed. In recent years no Indiana law firm has had more top-ranked business litigators recognized in Chambers USA or Indiana Super Lawyers, or had more appellate lawyers recognized in Best Lawyers, than Bingham McHale.
