Jeffrey Ryan, Litigator – Choosing a Reputable Trial Lawyer

Choosing the right trial lawyer can be the most important decision a person makes when faced with a civil litigation case, as it can be the difference between success and defeat. This is why Jeffrey Ryan, attorney at law, has spent his entire career setting the gold standard in litigation. Ryan, who has been working as a civil litigation attorney for 28 years, has cultivated a level of deep experience in this field, and carved out a niche for himself in the areas of business litigation, employment litigation, trade secret and property litigation, insurance and bad faith litigation, and the negotiation of excellent severance packages for executives.  

When it comes to civil litigation, credibility is key. Credibility is the foundation on which trust is built between lawyers and their clients, as well as with judges, jurors, and even opposing counsel. However, unlike many of the skills Ryan was taught at Santa Clara University School of Law, credibility is not something that can be learned – it must be earned. This is exactly what Ryan has done during his years at the Law Offices of Jeffrey F. Ryan.

Known for his uncanny ability to successfully represent the underdog, lawyer Jeffrey Ryan has had many prominent case wins throughout his career, including a whistleblower case that resulted in a $75.5 million settlement, and a sexual harassment/constructive wrongful termination case for $8 million. Ryan’s clients have nothing but good things to say about him, such as technology industry entrepreneur Charles Brown, who took notice of Ryan’s “incredible focus” during the litigation, and the fact that he was honest with Brown during the entire process. Ryan fully comprehends the impact that his performance can have on the lives of his clients, which is why he always strives to do his absolute best, no matter how great the challenge.

Many believe that being a skilled litigation lawyer simply means being able to argument ferociously. But in fact, the most effective litigation lawyers, like Ryan, know that the key to effective arguing is civility. Litigation is the art of persuasion, and hostile tactics such as voice volume, anger, and intimidation often act as hindrances to a lawyer and their client’s cause by diverting attention away from key witnesses and facts, in favor of emotional reactions that are more difficult to predict and control. This does not mean that Ryan doesn’t firmly stand his ground in the courtroom; it just means that he does so with respect, intelligence, and grace.
