ABOUT TONY TOOTELL
I serve our clients with a breadth of experience in California and Federal litigation, including issues involving renewable energy, real estate, foreclosure, environmental, financial institutions, indemnity, contract, business tort, unlawful business practices, and non-compete/solicitation. While I am prepared to represent our clients through trial and appeal, I advise them beginning at pre-litigation as to the most efficient and effective manner to resolve their disputes and allow them to focus on their business before, during, and after litigation.
