Practice Areas

We have a national accessibility practice dedicated to helping clients of all sizes defend lawsuits and investigations brought under the Americans with Disabilities Act, the Fair Housing Act, and corollary state non-discrimination laws. Our experience includes not only single-plaintiff accessibility claims, but high-impact class action litigation, particularly in the digital space. In addition to our litigation expertise, we help clients navigate regulatory investigations, including with the DOJ and local administrative agencies, and provide compliance advice in order to help clients mitigate future risk. 

We understand that there is no one-size-fits-all approach to addressing accessibility claims, and that every client has their own needs and priorities. To that end, we work closely with our clients to understand what approach is best for their business  — whether that be litigation, negotiation, or the development of proactive compliance programs. We have extensive experience handling matters nationally in state and federal courts and can provide nuanced advice across jurisdictions.

We help both small businesses and large companies navigate disputes that arise out of everyday business relationships, including breach of contract, business torts, UCC issues, real estate disputes, and fraud. Whether the dispute is simple or complex, we drive toward the right-fit solution for your business, and help you look around corners to reduce risk in the next dispute. In particular, we focus on your business goals, your risk tolerance, and your budget when crafting an approach, whether it be litigation or resolution.

We defend businesses from common consumer protection claims in both single-plaintiff and complex class actions. This includes claims under Washington's Consumer Protection Act, California's Unfair Competition Law, False Advertising Law, and Consumer Legal Remedies Act, and related statutes governing marketing, advertising, and consumer transactions.  We also have experience handling false advertising disputes in front of the National Advertising Division.  And because the best offense is a good defense, we help mitigate risk in these areas by highlighting popular and trending areas of consumer litigation and steps to avoid becoming the next target.

We represent businesses in privacy-related litigation, with particular focus on claims under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA) and California's Invasion of Privacy Act (CIPA), including claims involving call and text marketing and website tracking technologies.

Privacy litigation is a fast-moving area, and we help by tracking trends and updating you on the latest popular claims. Plaintiffs' firms have shifted CIPA theories toward website and app-based tracking litigation, and TCPA exposure continues to evolve with changing FCC rules and consent standards. We help clients assess exposure in their existing marketing and data practices, respond to demand letters and complaints, and defend against both single-plaintiff and class claims.
