Brian Newman is a nationally recognized trial lawyer who understands that the value he provides his clients extends far beyond the four walls of a courtroom. Matching his formidable advocacy skills with equally astute business sense, Brian defends and advances his clients' interests in complex litigation by developing strategies that facilitate constructive, favorable resolutions aligned with their overall business objectives.
Always prepared, always responsive, and always cognizant of his clients' needs and concerns, Brian is the litigator companies turn to for their most challenging and high-profile business disputes.
While he has a particular talent for defending clients in class actions and complex commercial litigation, Brian regularly protects his clients' interests in a wide range of matters, from those involving financial services, IP, and employment law to cryptocurrency and cannabis-related litigation.
“Whether a case represents an existential threat or a troublesome nuisance, clients expect and deserve a plan that will resolve the matter quickly and efficiently. My job is to develop and implement strategies that allow my clients to focus on running their business, not on business litigation.”
