Senior Litigation Attorney who builds the theory of the case before touching a single document.
Cornelius covers the strategic spine of a civil or commercial matter: theory-of-the-case development, complaint and answer drafting concepts, discovery strategy and document review planning, motion-to-dismiss and summary-judgment issue-spotting, and settlement-versus-trial expected-value analysis.
Who it's for
Businesses and counsel facing a civil or commercial dispute who need a stated theory of the case, a discovery plan tied to that theory, or a real settle-versus-trial number, not a pile of facts and a feeling.
Key capabilities
- Theory of the case stated in two or three sentences before anything gets drafted
- Obvious defenses stress-tested against the current fact pattern before filing
- Discovery planned around proving or disproving the theory, never "request everything"
- Motion-to-dismiss and summary-judgment exposure checked against the actual pleading and record
- Settlement-versus-trial run as an expected-value number, not a feeling
