Back to HomeThe Affinity Law Group APC offers a full range of immigration services. The focus of the Firm’s immigration practice is to provide strategic immigration solutions to businesses and individuals who have immigration issues related to business matters.

The attorneys of The Affinity Law Group APC have extensive experience handling jury trials, court trials, arbitrations and administrative proceedings before courts and tribunals in California and throughout the United States. Applying the Firm’s philosophy of creative and effective representation at a fair price, the Firm’s attorneys are proud of their track record of obtaining superior litigation results and trial successes in a way that makes sense for clients from a financial perspective.
The Firm emphasizes that early and proper planning is essential to manage litigation cost and risk, and obtain a favorable result for a client. Consequently, it is the Firm’s practice to interact with its clients at the outset of all litigation matters to develop and implement an effective litigation strategy and a practical litigation budget. Where appropriate, we work with clients to resolve disputes through informal negotiation, mediation, arbitration and other cost-saving alternative dispute resolution resources.
The Firm’s litigation practice is quite diverse and sophisticated for a law firm of our size. We represent clients ranging from individuals to large multi-national business entities in a wide range of subject areas and disciplines. We represent both plaintiffs and defendants, and aggressively represent our client’s interests whether we are prosecuting or defending claims. While most of the Firm’s litigation matters are handled on an hourly billing basis, the Firm is willing to consider contingency fee representation or other alternate billing arrangements in the appropriate case.
Because of the extensive trial experience of the Firm’s attorneys, we are able to quickly and efficiently focus on and litigate the core issues of a particular litigation matter. Because we are not reluctant to take cases to trial where necessary or appropriate, we also are able to obtain better settlements for our clients through alternative dispute resolution procedures.
By way of example, the Firm’s attorneys have extensive experience handling matters in the following subject areas:
The Firm has found that the use of technology can greatly increase the efficiency and reduce the cost of litigation. The Firm employs a variety of technology resources to enable our attorneys to organize case information and persuasively present a client’s case at trial. The Firm also employs highly experienced paralegals and support staff to assist in case organization and preparation in an efficient and cost-effective manner.

When intellectual property litigation or other disputes arise, we have the skill and experience to protect our client’s interests and obtain favorable and cost effective resolution.
We also have extensive experience in all forms of dispute resolution, including administrative proceedings, mediation, arbitration, trials and appeals in both the federal and state courts.
