Practice Areas

Tauler Smith LLP is a national law firm that represents both plaintiffs and defendants in many different practice areas. We are licensed to practice law in numerous jurisdictions and routinely appear in both state and federal courtrooms across the United States, including California, Texas, New York, and Washington, DC.

Winning your case is the only thing that matters to us. Our litigators pride themselves on being able to win any case in the courtroom, which is why we prepare every lawsuit with the expectation that it may eventually go to trial. This is a major reason why our track record of success is second to none: we have helped countless clients win millions of dollars in settlements and verdicts.

The survival of your business may depend on the outcome of your business dispute. That’s why it is imperative that you seek the assistance of a highly qualified business litigation attorney at Tauler Smith LLP. We handle all types of business litigation cases, including breach of contract claims, partnership disagreements, and any other commercial disputes.

A major advantage of filing a class action lawsuit is that plaintiffs with few resources can take on big corporations who might otherwise have no reason to fear a lawsuit filed by “the little guy.” A class action allows individuals to pool their resources, add up all the harms suffered by affected parties, and hold corporate wrongdoers accountable in a court of law. Tauler Smith LLP routinely represents plaintiffs in class actions involving consumer fraud, data security, privacy violations, and false advertising claims.

As countless people share their personal information online through social media apps and e-commerce websites, consumer privacy has never been more at risk. Your bank account information, physical location, internet geolocation data, and even your private medical records could be exposed by a cybersecurity lapse. The good news is that California is at the forefront of data privacy law, giving consumers robust protections against unauthorized sharing with third-party data brokers, negligence leading to data breaches, and other privacy violations. There are numerous statutes that you can use to file a claim: California Invasion of Privacy Act (CIPA), California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), and California Privacy Rights Act (CPRA).

When you purchase a product or service from a company, you depend on that company to offer a truthful representation of exactly what it is that they will be providing. California’s strong consumer protection laws provide broad protection against deceptive advertising by companies. These laws include the Consumers Legal Remedies Act (CLRA), the Unfair Competition Law (UCL), and the Automatic Renewal Law (ARL). Victims of misleading advertising and consumer fraud may be able to file a lawsuit based on these laws to recover substantial damages.

Tauler Smith LLP represents both plaintiffs and defendants in cases involving allegations of copyright infringement, trademark infringement, trade secret disputes, and right of publicity violations. If you are an artist or content creator whose hard work was stolen, we can help protect your IP rights to any inventions, formulas, or creative works that belong to you. Our attorneys possess an in-depth understanding of intellectual property law, so we can assist you with registration, enforcement, and litigation of your IP dispute. If you are a business owner who is being sued by a “copyright troll” looking for a quick buck, our copyright defense attorneys can help you fight back against the frivolous lawsuit.

Sometimes, a client needs to replace their attorney at the last possible moment. If you find yourself on the eve of trial and in need of a new attorney, the last-minute trial lawyers at Tauler Smith LLP are prepared to help you. Our seasoned litigators know how to think on their feet and successfully argue the merits of your case in court. Additionally, if you already have legal representation, our experienced attorneys can work with them to complement their existing resources and give your case the last push it needs to get across the finish line.
