Intellectual Property partner Mark Baghdassarian and associate Aaron Frankel’s article “Litigation: Managing Plaintiffs and Discovery Disputes in Asymmetrical Litigation” appears on InsideCounsel.com. It is the fifth in a series of articles that address issues raised by managing asymmetrical litigations, or David versus Goliath situations, and the strategies for how to handle them effectively and efficiently.

The article considers David versus Goliath litigation from the perspective of the plaintiff and ways a defendant can manage the litigation by managing the plaintiff and discovery disputes. The authors discuss how defendants should take full advantage of any failure on the part of a plaintiff to fully litigate a case; managing discovery disputes; and litigating both sides of the case by framing the issues in advantageous ways and educating the court.
