Extract from Justin Smith’s article “How London & Naor P.C. Leveraged Everlaw to Deliver Big Results with a Small Team”
In the high-stakes world of civil litigation and white-collar defense, there is a long-standing myth that big results require big headcounts. The prevailing wisdom suggests that to manage terabytes of data or navigate complex litigation, a firm must deploy an army of associates. But for London & Naor P.C., a boutique powerhouse based in Oakland, California, the goal isn’t to be the biggest—it’s to be the smartest.
Specializing in civil litigation, internal investigations, and white-collar defense, the firm serves a diverse client base that spans individuals, companies, and public entities. Their attorneys have decades of combined experience in government and private practice, and draw upon their know-how and technology to deliver high-quality legal services.
