What is “Bet the Company” Litigation?

You won’t find this phrase in any statute or case book, but the meaning is clear – sometimes a legal dispute becomes existential. When the survival of your business hangs in the balance, when the outcome could determine your company’s future, you need exceptional legal representation.

At DownsAaron, this is where we excel. Our founder, Mayanne Downs, has been recognized by peers, businesses, and governments as the go-to “Bet the Company” litigator for years, with decades of experience handling these critical, complex, and high-stakes cases.

Why These Cases Demand a Different Approach

Bet the Company litigation transcends ordinary commercial disputes. These cases:

  • Place the very existence of your business at risk
  • Require sophisticated analysis of risk and reward
  • Typically involve multiple parties and intricate legal issues
  • Demand extensive and complex discovery processes
  • Call for strategic thinking beyond standard litigation approaches

They demand battle-tested judgment, unwavering confidence, and strategic vision.
