Commercial Litigation & Disputes
Winston represents clients in virtually every type of dispute that could arise from operating a business. While our primary objective is to protect our clients from the need to engage in litigation and enter the courtroom, we take pride in our heavyweight litigation experience and the knowledge that corporate America has repeatedly retained us not just for “bet-the-company” trials, but for “bet-the-industry” cases as well. Our commercial litigators’ track record of success earned the team a national Tier 1 ranking in Best Law Firms® 2023. Our practice is anchored by seasoned litigators, many of whom have been recognized by in-house counsel and their peers as top practitioners in their fields.

Our bench is stacked with innovative legal and commercial problem solvers, many of whom came to Winston from in-house positions, amplifying their appreciation for C-suite complexities. By combining our knowledge of the energy industry with first-rate trial skills, and the experience our practitioners have gained from learning our clients’ businesses, we are positioned to obtain the best result for our clients efficiently—whether in the courtroom or a negotiated solution.

What Is Advertising Litigation?
Advertising litigation is defined as the legal area that covers false or deceptive advertising cases. Lawsuits may be brought by government agencies or corporate competitors based on the Lanham Act—a law that specifically deals with false advertising. The Act outlines how an advertisement can be deemed false. The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) has the ability to file lawsuits to halt deceptive advertising claims. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration may also pursue advertising litigation against violators of government regulations. Companies may be called on to substantiate their advertising claims, whether these are made in print or online.
