Litigation Support

When the Public is the Jury

Litigation Support

Fair or not, many legal cases are tried in the court of public opinion, and winning in this arena can be just as important as winning in the court of law. Yet an effective legal communications strategy is a delicate matter, often subject to judicial restrictions along with intense public scrutiny, and anxious employees, vendors, financial institutions and customers. Precise timing and targeted, nuanced, attorney approved messaging can be vital to success when litigation is the issue at hand.

BMF has worked with dozens of law firms, from coast to coast, on civil and white collar criminal cases as diverse as medical malpractice, tax fraud, employment disputes and labor actions, product recalls, and much more. We have worked around and with almost every federal regulatory body and understand their modus operendi. Each case is different, presenting its own communications challenges. Some cases call for discretion, some for aggression, many call for the right amount of each. But all call for a healthy respect for the fact that the legal strategy comes first. When finances, reputations and livelihoods are at stake, under the eyes of an increasingly watchful world, you can rely on BMF’s decades of litigation support expertise.
