To efficiently manage complex, commercial litigation matters and address the burdens imposed by electronic document discovery, we have developed a Special Resources Group that expertly handles electronic discovery and document review at a fraction of outside consultant or standard litigation costs. We practice our craft and hone our trial and appellate persuasion skills in our state-of-the art mock courtroom, which we use to practice oral arguments, simulate witness examinations and test trial themes with focus groups. <br><br>We also utilize in-house certified public accountants with substantial experience in the financial sector. Our accountants regularly assist our trial lawyers with forensic accounting matters and damages analyses, further fueling our reputation for providing first-class client service. <br><br>We know clients want results, not just billable hours of effort. We are strong proponents of risk/reward relationships and aggressively seek to partner with our clients in creative alternative-fee arrangements. We therefore offer discounted rates with reward factors, flat fees, flat fees for stages of litigation, capped fees, blended rates, contingency fees and combinations of these alternative-fee arrangements. </p> <p><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/services/litigation/appellate/">Appellate Litigation</a> <br><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/services/litigation/class-action/">Class Actions</a> <br><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/services/litigation/corporate/">Corporate Plaintiff's Practice</a> <br><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/services/intellectual-property/privacy-data-security/">Data Privacy</a> <br><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/services/litigation/financial-services/">Financial Services Litigation</a> <br><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/services/litigation/insurance/">Insurance Litigation & Regulation</a> <br><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/services/litigation/international-arbitration/">International Arbitration & Alternative Dispute Resolution</a> <br><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/services/litigation/international/">International Litigation</a> <br><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/services/litigation/healthcare/">Health Care Litigation</a> <br><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/services/litigation/technology/">Telecommunications & Technology Litigation</a></p> <p><strong>Accolades</strong></p> <ul> <li>Ranked in the 2014 <em>BTI Brand Elite: Client Perceptions of the Best-Branded Law Firms</em> report published by BTI Consulting. <li><em>The American Lawyer's</em> 2012 list of “Who Represents America’s Biggest Companies” recognized Alston & Bird among the top 10 law firms in the country. <li>Our more than 350 litigators have handled cases in all 50 states and are featured prominently in the 2015 <em>BTI Litigation Outlook</em>.

These six seasoned litigators add breadth and depth to the firm’s litigation practice. Next, Susan Hurd and Cara Peterman of our Securities Litigation Group examine the impact of the recent Supreme Court Amgen decision on the standard for certification of a class action. Bill Jordan and Jason Popp in our Litigation & Trial Practice Group then consider the new Resource Guide to the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and how it may help companies conducting business in foreign countries comply with the FCPA. Finally, Matt McGuire and Rich McAvoy, also members of our Litigation & Trial Practice Group, review the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s newly issued qualified mortgage and mortgage servicing rules, which take effect in early 2014.</div> <div class="date"> June 3, 2013 </div> <div class="type">Publications</div> </li> <li> <div class="titlegroup"> <div class="title"> <a href="/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/Files/Publication/37796f28-a6f0-4a95-a6c7-8ff4a150fb0b/Presentation/PublicationAttachment/8274e27b-6b0f-42d2-94fc-92faae0b906f/UK%20Bribery%20Act.pdf"> <i>Litigation & Trial Practice Advisory</i>: Companies with International Operations and Sales Should Review Compliance Programs in Light of the UK Bribery Act </a> </div> <div class="subtitle"></div> </div> <div class="abstract"></div> <div class="date"> June 30, 2011 </div> <div class="type">Advisories</div> </li> <li> <div class="titlegroup"> <div class="title"> <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/files/docs/Trends Spring 2011.swf"> "TRENDS in Litigation," Spring 2011 </a> </div> <div class="subtitle"></div> </div> <div class="abstract"></div> <div class="date"> Spring 2011 </div> <div class="type">Publications</div> </li> <li> <div class="titlegroup"> <div class="title"> <a href="/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/Files/Publication/0a963eae-3de8-4112-8b47-017d2bc59a3d/Presentation/PublicationAttachment/760eb176-919b-486a-b1d2-c025e7e8454f/GSUlaw.pdf"> "Jury Selection: Whose Job is It, Anyway?" <i>Georgia State University Law Review</i>, Vol. 23, No. 3, Spring 2007. </a> </div> <div class="subtitle"></div> </div> <div class="abstract"></div> <div class="date"> Spring 2007 </div> <div class="type">Publications</div> </li> <li> <div class="titlegroup"> <div class="title"> <a href="/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/Files/Publication/f62204f5-8a61-44fd-8c23-0732d8447a88/Presentation/PublicationAttachment/b6661f19-d7c7-4fb4-a001-0a1dc9992f13/Trends%20Spring%202010.pdf"> "TRENDS in Litigation," Summer 2010 </a> </div> <div class="subtitle"></div> </div> <div class="abstract"></div> <div class="date"> Summer 2010 </div> <div class="type">Publications</div> </li> <li> <div class="titlegroup"> <div class="title"> <a href="/web/20150315080900/http://www.alston.com/Files/Publication/4e59558f-9450-4a8f-80e9-db391bac0d4e/Presentation/PublicationAttachment/44b86d8b-6783-4ea1-a980-dfa9f48af5e2/Moyle.pdf"> "Foreign Bank Issuer.
