About Us
WE ARE HERE TO PROTECT YOU. WE HAVE THOUGHT ABOUT AND WORKED HARDER ON WINNING THAN THOSE WHO OPPOSE US.
IT IS ALWAYS PERSONAL.
Sbaiti & Company is a boutique law firm focused on trying meritorious cases and appeals. Our lawyers have practiced at the goliath firms but prefer a smaller, more nimble environment to serve our clients. While based in Dallas, we serve clients nationally and internationally.
Our clients hire us because we bring experience on both sides of the docket in a broad spectrum of legal specialties with a demonstrated history of success and a drive to win. We are often brought in to replace counsel – either to finish a contentious matter, take it the rest of the way to trial, or on appeal after trial.
OUR APPROACH
We understand you want to win. When things heat up, you want to know your lawyers are there for you. You want answers to your concerns, and you need them quickly. And you want them to be based upon thorough research, broad experience and sound legal judgment. Finally, while you want your lawyer to win the case, you also expect to have representation that cares about what happens to you.
We know the playbooks of plaintiffs and defendants. Our experience on both sides informs us how our opposition approaches a case which helps us plan our lawsuits, make strategic decisions and frame the trial most favorably to our client.
We do not use a one-size-fits all litigation model. Some firms churn out the same strategy and work-product for each case. We believe your case is unique and deserving of more than a boilerplate approach. However, we do love going up against those firms.
At Sbaiti & Company, we are highly selective on the cases we take on and the clients we agree to represent. As a boutique firm, we often find ourselves oversubscribed requiring us to be discerning on the cases to take on and which clients to represent.
We focus on your goals. Once we take on your case, we conduct an in-depth analysis of your goals for the lawsuit. We invest the time to thoroughly research and vet the law and to understand the issues and strategically frame the case. Doing it this way allows us to know what is important, what is superfluous, and what is likely to be successful.
WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
We treat every case like it will go to trial. We are “stand up” trial lawyers—we love to go to court and fight our cases there. We are not discovery litigators. We don’t rely on motion practice or worn-out lawyer tricks or tactics (which are very expensive for clients), extensive document discovery or lengthy depositions. This sets us apart from 99% of other firms and lawyers.
Sbaiti’s trial-oriented strategy informs us on what is important and what is superfluous – and thus a waste of time, effort and your money. When you hire Sbaiti & Company, your opponent will know you are serious and ready to go all the way to trial which drives favorable resolution.
Our clients look to us to produce the best possible result at the best possible value. To help clients manage the expense and risk of litigation, we often work with clients on a contingency fee or alternative structured fee that pays us to win and only if we win. This aligns our interests with our clients’ best outcomes.
Unlike large full-service law firms, we do not have an army of associates or high-cost attorneys who need hours to bill. While other firms may deploy three or four lawyers for each one of ours, we have never found ourselves outgunned despite frequently being outmanned.
What is more, is that our contingency-fee model allows us to prepare a case at our expense—and doing that has forged an efficient approach to each case. The truth is that even high-stakes cases do not always require thousands of hours to work up. Whether you hire us on contingency, by the hour, or a hybrid model, you will be the beneficiary of our efficient approach.
