ABOUT
Doll Amir & Eley LLP represents companies, institutions and individuals with commercial litigation and business disputes.
Legal Counselors. California Litigators. Trial Advocates.
Since 2004, we have advised and advocated for global and national public and private companies and the entrepreneurs and enterprises driving the Southern California economy: independent film and television producers, artists, athletes, real estate developers, and venture capitalists.
DAE’s founding partners parlayed friendships made while practicing in Big Law into a new vision for California legal counsel. More than 20 years in, the ideals of friendship, such as mutual trust and respect, best describe how we engage with clients and within the profession.
Many clients are household names, and they have large litigation portfolios – and Legal Departments under pressure. We invest upfront in understanding their business and stress points.
Experience and creativity help us formulate efficient ways to manage portfolios and achieve business-driven outcomes, from negotiated settlements to trial verdicts and new opportunities.
To become GC’s back-pocket litigators, we work closely, and in coordination with, corporate teams and departments, from the C-suite to HR, Compliance and Finance. We anticipate issues, find practical solutions to disputes, and reduce risk exposure.
While trials have become less frequent since we started practicing, DAE lawyers’ impact at trial has never been sharper.
Going up against the largest law firms in the nation, we’ve achieved verdicts and decisions that have set new law. Clients in bet-the-company fights have learned why we’re a best bet for their high-stake litigation. DAE’s attorneys represent clients in all phases of litigation, including federal and state jury trials, bench trials, arbitration proceedings and appeal.
We may not be the only litigation boutique in Southern California, but we’ve heard we’re among the very few known for investing upfront in the client relationship. That starts with learning our clients’ business, priorities and communication style.
Always mindful of the privilege we have to serve as our client’s voice, we cultivate long-term partnerships and professional networks that add value today and years down the line. Our legal bench is notable for its team of lawyers who grew up and trained in California.
From secondments at clients’ sites and pre-litigation counseling to novel defense strategies, DAE attorneys are hands-on and committed. We believe the best client is an involved one and encourage clients to play an active role in all phases of litigation.
DAE, whose founding members come from diverse cultural and ethnic backgrounds, embraces and encourages diversity in the workplace. We strongly believe that embracing individual uniqueness brings creativity and vitality to our environment. We are proud of our team, and we continue to expand with a focus on recruiting diverse employees. We are committed to providing an environment of fairness and equitable treatment of everyone, regardless of race, religion, color or creed.
