We are thrilled to announce that our partner Evangeline Burbidge has been named by the Daily Journal as one of the Top Women Lawyers for 2024.  The annual award recognizes and honors the best 100 women lawyers practicing in the state of California.

Evan is an experienced litigator who represents both plaintiffs and defendants, focusing on trade secret theft litigation, contract disputes, and founders’ disputes. In the past three years, she has obtained over $50 million in judgments for our clients and has successfully defeated claims seeking over $500 million in damages.  She has also been recognized by Super Lawyers, Best Lawyers, Lawyer Monthly, Benchmark Litigation, and has had several monetary awards featured in the Daily Journal.

In her interview with the Daily Journal, Evan talks about her path to becoming an attorney, the $25.7M jury verdict she helped secure last year for our client EchoSpan, and the important lessons she learned from previous trials—including why “it works much, much better with juries to have live witnesses in the courtroom” rather than playing deposition testimony.  Evan’s complete profile can be read here.
