Litigation
Although we pride ourselves on giving our clients sound judgment that will allow them to achieve their objectives without incurring liability, sometimes litigation is inevitable. We’re more than ready. Our attorneys secured the rst ever guilty jury verdict in an Economic Espionage Act case involving theft of trade secrets by a foreign entity. We won a precedent setting victory on a DMCA claim involving the circumvention of a client’s in-game cheat detection software. We have successfully defended class actions alleging Electronic Communications Privacy Act violations, alleged mobile phone spam, alleged bid-rigging in the sale of sponsored online advertising, and a variety of other unfair practices claims. We’ve also successfully defended clients by obtaining immunity under Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. We are proactive. We have led and successfully taken to judgment scores
of copyright, DMCA, trademark and Computer Fraud and Abuse Act claims and secured preliminary injunctive relief, executed civil seizure orders, and other special relief.
Our litigation philosophy is simple: set a clear objective and then build a strategy with a singular focus. Every action we pursue has a clearly identi able purpose that serves the client’s ultimate objective. We’re ef cient. We’re creative. We’re fearless. Our attorneys have handled cases in state and federal courts in California, New York, Illinois, DC, Wisconsin, Maryland, Missouri, Arizona, Connecticut, and Georgia. We have also served as lead counsel in federal appeals in the Third, Fifth, Seventh, Ninth, Tenth, and Eleventh Circuits. ZwillGen is hired by clients from coast-to-coast because of our excellent results.

Of course, it would be impossible for
us to list every single function of every single case we perform. If you don’t see
a particular area of the law in which you need representation, just call us.
More likely than not, we already counseled clients, successfully defended, or proactively litigated the very same issue - numerous times. If we haven’t, we would love to hear about it because we enjoy breaking new ground and staying on the cutting edge of our practice.
