Practice

Litigation is the life of the firm’s lawyers, advocacy is what they have to offer, and good advocacy benefits any kind of case. That is the firm’s belief, and one of the reasons for its success.

Our individual lawyers acquire understanding and experience in specific areas of practice, and McManis Faulkner can call on its various attorneys when a client’s case would benefit from a particular lawyer’s special background in a particular area. Few of the firm’s attorneys, however, would describe their professional accomplishments by pointing to one or two of these practice areas. The attorneys at McManis Faulkner are generalists—and they are trial lawyers, not litigators. 

There are few firms in the Silicon Valley that have the breadth of experience that MF brings to a case, and there are few limits to the kinds of cases the firm can handle. In fact, the firm has appeared in court in almost every kind of civil and criminal dispute, and tried a significant number of them to verdict and judgment. Whether the case is a high stakes criminal prosecution, a complex civil case, or a bitter divorce, the firm’s clients enjoy an advantage when represented by an MF lawyer. 

Clients come to McManis Faulkner when they have a tough case, knowing that they will be well represented by forceful advocates—experienced, passionate, exceptional lawyers. And large or small, every case receives the same attention and care—because at McManis Faulkner, litigation is the life of the firm’s lawyers, advocacy is what they have to offer, and good advocacy benefits every kind of case.
