McCutchen is a 300+ lawyer firm with its main office in San Francisco and offices in Los Angles, Palo Alto and Walnut Creek. The firm has a very strong reputation in major commercial litigation (antitrust, securities fraud etc) and technical and IP litigation. I believe ENA has worked with McCutchen in the past on some power plant matters. Rob Walters has worked closely with Chris Hockett (who I have also met) and has a very high opinion of his abilities. I concur that Chris (a 40ish commercial litigator) is a very impressive individual. David Balbanian, more senior than Chris, is apparently widely known as one of the leading commercial litigators in Northern California. Establishing a relationship with David and Chris would give you the judgment and access I assume you would want. Let me know if I can provide any additional information.
