Law360 recently interviewed Christopher W. Mahoney, Vice President and a member of the firm’s trial practice group, as an expert source for an article entitled “5 Tips for Small Firms Aiming To Land Big Cases.”
Chris’ advice includes "A small firm needs to impress upon a client that it's not hiring 700 or 800 lawyers.

If you have more than four or five lawyers on any given case, it usually means you are overstaffing.”
SLS regularly handles big and “bet the farm” cases for major corporations such as its representation of Athens Generating Company, LLC and American Municipal Power (AMP) against Bechtel in litigation involving multibillion-dollar EPC contracts.
