DLO provides an alternative to traditional law firms. Our goal is to provide our clients with high-quality, personalized representation in a cost-effective manner.

Unlike most law firms, DLO does not require any of our staff members to meet a billable-hour requirement. This ensures that each of our staff members is motivated not by meeting specific time targets but by the quality of work she provides to a client.

At DLO, every one of our clients receives the representation of a partner-level attorney with at least 15 years of legal experience. From the date your case is assigned through the initial evaluation and development of a litigation plan to mediation, arbitration, trial or appeal, your case will be handled personally by one of our senior attorneys.

DLO also utilizes a qualified and experienced paralegal who performs substantive legal work under the direct supervision of a DLO attorney.

Representative Outcomes:

  • Prior to trial, DLO obtained a seven-figure settlement for a corporate plaintiff client for wrongful breach of contract and fraud.
  • Obtained judgment in state court for DLO’s corporate defendant client in a bench trial for unfair business practices, anti-referral and anti-kickback claims.
  • Prevailed in state and federal court in shareholder derivative actions on behalf of defendant directors and managers.
  • Obtained summary adjudication on behalf of defendant employer disposing of plaintiff’s claims for race and gender-based harassment/discrimination and wrongful termination in advance of trial.  After, plaintiff dismissed remaining claims on the first day of trial and DLO obtained a six-figure monetary judgment against plaintiff, recovering attorneys’ fees and costs of suit for DLO’s client.
  • Without filing a motion, DLO obtained complete dismissal of claims (preserving the client’s right to recover costs) for manager accused by defendant managers of national origin harassment and discrimination.
  • Without filing motions, DLO obtained complete dismissal of claims against employer and individual defendant manager accused of sexual harassment and wrongful termination by establishing that plaintiff’s claims were fabricated.
  • Obtained a jury verdict on behalf of defendant employer for race discrimination in state court.
