Randall A. Juip
Professional Profile
My practice has two main focuses: aggressive litigation/trial advocacy and competent, thoughtful pre-litigation support. I specialize in complex civil litigation including medical/professional malpractice, civil rights, 42 USC 1983, business/commercial litigation, public relations and crisis management and employment matters.
I believe in forming a trial strategy early; that working with full information, justified confidence, and good strategy puts my clients in a position of strength throughout the litigation process. My practice heavily incorporates technology to provide not only outstanding results at trial, but to effectively and efficiently share information and coordinate strategy. This focus on technology provides not only advantages at trial, but allows my clients to realize true cost savings in litigation.
At trial, my reputation for success is hard-won and indisputable. In over 40 trials, in both Federal and State Courts, I am proud of my greater than 95% success rate.
I also provide my clients with valuable legal guidance outside of the context of active litigation through risk-management, practice consulting, crisis management, and media relations.
I have appeared on television (both local and national) numerous times representing and speaking on behalf of various clients. I have helped many professionals avoid embarrassing and costly public relations disasters by quickly and quietly acting to resolve these high profile matters in confidence. I work closely with my professional clients to evaluate their policies and practices in an effort to effectively manage the risk that is part of doing business in a litigious society.
Finally, but perhaps most importantly, I have long believed that my reputation as a thorough, competent, and civil advocate—with the Courts, and in both the plaintiff and defense bar—serves my clients well. I strongly believe that my ethics, civility, and toughness reflect the high quality of the individuals and businesses who seek my representation.
