EXPERIENCE

department, attaining the position of in-house Firmwide Litigation
Consultant. As the firm was winding down in 2002, he was transferred
to the firm’s Complex Litigation Group as a Paralegal. He
began consulting to the firm on a large precedent-setting asbestos
insurance matter, thus founding Litigation-Tech LLC.
UNIQUE PERSPECTIVE
Ted's significant in-house law firm experience affords him a perspective
that is rare among his peers. This knowledge has proven very valuable
to small firms lacking adequate in-house support and with large
firms when the workload or case complexity demand the assistance
of an experienced professional.
He knows how to handle the high stress and pressures of complex
and difficult cases, having served with some of the country’s
greatest lawyers on both plaintiff and defense teams, often with
multiple firms and in-house counsel.
Ted and his company offer Trial Presentation and prep, Graphics,
Visual Communication, Courtroom and War Room Technology, Jury Observation,
Case Analysis and Objective Feedback during trial.
He has extensive experience in many types of litigation, including
IP, Securities, Insurance, Products, Personal Injury, Asbestos,
Tobacco, Breast Implant, Contracts, Real Estate, Complex Litigation
and High-Profile Criminal matters.
