CurrentLegal experience, perspective, and practiceJames Gibson has the courtroom experience and skills of a much more senior lawyer. He has helped try cases as diverse as a multi-week medical malpractice trial involving the death of a three year old child and an arbitration against claimants who sought millions of dollars in property loss and punitive damages. He was also an integral part of the trial team in a multi-week product liability case in federal court involving two international manufacturing defendants. He develops complex cases, takes them to trial if necessary, and cares for clients in a cost-efficient and results-oriented manner while doing so.James’ practice focuses on product liability, medical malpractice, and consumer fraud defense. He has also handled business disputes, toxic torts cases, legal malpractice cases, construction defect claims, and class actions. He takes great pride in learning the nuances of his clients’ businesses and using that knowledge to their strategic benefit at all stages of the litigation process, including fact and expert discovery, dispositive motion practice, and, if needed, the appellate process.Each case is different, and James knows how to build legal strategies for any circumstance with any desired result. Some matters are likely trial candidates from day one—and James aggressively works those cases with a jury in mind at all times. Other times, the client’s goal is prompt resolution—and James knows how to quickly identify and develop pressure points in a case that can limit its value and lead to a quick and cost-effective settlement.
