Experience:

Neil Soltman is a civil litigator whose practice is particularly focused on complex trials and disputes. Neil has represented substantial business entities in California state and federal courts for over 30 years. He handles a wide spectrum of matters, including securities litigation; litigation with respect to large real estate matters, including commercial loan and lease transactions; litigation related to the interpretation or constitutionality of statutes; and intellectual property litigation (including, e.g., trade secrets, copyrights and trademarks).

He also has conducted numerous litigated proceedings before arbitration panels and alternate dispute resolution bodies - including the American Arbitration Association, JAMS/ Endispute and private one- and three-member arbitration panels - involving arbitration, private judging (under, for example, California Code of Civil Procedure §§ 638) and mediation. In addition, he has substantial experience in briefing and arguing appeals in both the state and federal appellate courts.
