Creative Legal Solutions to the most complex business problems

 

Zoblaw attorneys have represented clients in various industries across the United States.

Solving impossible problems, one business at a time

Since its founding in 2001, Zoblaw has been achieving outstanding results for businesses in United States courts.

  • David beating Goliath.  After two years of hard-fought litigation against our startup company client—brought by one of the giants in the gaming industry—we won summary judgment on most counts and settled the remaining claims for money provided by the insurance company.  Our client was particularly pleased that the other side spent millions more in attorneys’ fees prosecuting the case than our client paid in defense costs. Details here.

  • Bumble Bee owed our client millions of dollars, but filed for bankruptcy without paying. After another law firm told our client it would never get its money through the bankruptcy process, we filed a temporary restraining order in California federal court. Our TRO stalled a bankruptcy-court-approved $930 million sale of all assets of Bumble Bee and its parent company. Within a few days of filing the TRO, we resolved the litigation, and our client received a very favorable settlement hours before the $930 million transaction closed. Bumble Bee’s other creditors were never paid, losing in bankruptcy discharge over $100 million in debt Bumble Bee owed.

  • Our client, a $10 billion food manufacturer, was getting strangled with litigation. Within a year we resolved 45 major pieces of litigation, while simultaneously reducing our client’s spend on outside counsel by more than 80%.

Our strength lies in strategy and judgment. While we are alumni of the most prominent law firms and the highest-regarded law schools in the country, we prefer a boutique practice, where we control every ounce of talent. Our clients, who generally can afford to hire any law firm in the country to represent them, feel the same.
