Firm Profile
Bouchard Margules & Friedlander, P.A. is a litigation boutique focusing on corporate law litigation, partnership and alternate entity disputes, commercial litigation, and as Delaware counsel in patent litigation. Our practice includes the prosecution and defense of stockholder class and derivative actions, corporate control disputes, and internal investigations. We also litigate contract, partnership, alternative entity and insurance coverage actions. The members of the firm take a hands-on approach that allows us to litigate efficiently cases of both large and small magnitude. We pride ourselves on finding the best strategy suited to each litigation need. Unlike most firms that practice before the Delaware Court of Chancery, we regularly represent both plaintiffs and defendants in stockholder class and derivative actions. We believe that combination of experience enhances our effectiveness.From its inception, the firm has litigated against the largest national and Delaware law firms. Our clients are typically referred to us by counsel knowledgeable about the Delaware legal market, and each of the name members of the firm is recognized as a leading litigator in the Delaware Court of Chancery. We bring to every case a high level of partner involvement, devotion to the highest standards of written and oral advocacy, and a willingness to litigate cases through trial. Our reputation is our most valued asset. The firm is described in the 2009 edition of Chambers USA as follows:
This litigation boutique enjoys a fearsome reputation, with clients commenting: “Its lawyers are real bulldogs - they won't give an inch, which makes them a great firm to use when you want to show you mean it!” Focused on sophisticated commercial litigation with an emphasis on the Chancery Court, the firm typically handles a variety of matters, ranging from commercial governance and M&A-related issues to broken deal and LLC disputes. Dividing its time between Delaware counsel and first chair roles, the six-lawyer team's client base is the result of referrals from national law firms and referrals arising from conflicts in Wilmington.
