Firm overview

Founded in 2011, O+Z is a litigation boutique led by attorneys with extensive experience protecting content and brands. The firm’s practice is at the intersection of technology, new media, consumer behavior, and litigation. We have nearly 25 lawyers dedicated to representing clients in creative and innovative industries against mass infringement, piracy, and related disruptive threats. We routinely navigate these areas and bring to bear our unique knowledge, skills, and relentless focus. Our attorneys have litigated some of the most prominent copyright and internet matters of our time. While our offices are in Washington, DC and New York City, our practice is nationwide and at times even international.

O+Z is built around these core principles:

We concentrate on practice areas where we have deep experience, provide exceptional lawyering, and are among the leaders nationwide. We do not try to be all things for all clients.

We emphasize real collaboration among colleagues to provide clients with the best representation possible. Our culture of teamwork, integrity, and strategic thinking leads to better outcomes and advice. We check our egos at the door and work together to solve problems and win.

We develop deep relationships with our clients. We understand their industries, business models, and challenges. We listen and bring to bear intense effort, focus, and judgment both in the day-to-day and in the strategic long-term.

We care enormously about achieving the best results and want to best align our interests and incentives with our clients. Our management structure enables us to make decisions promptly and gives us the flexibility to consider alternative fee arrangements.

We believe our success speaks for itself. We stand out because of our passion for what we do and how we do it.
