The Firm
The boutique alternative for serious defense work.
When the exposure is significant, companies have traditionally faced a choice: the scale of Big Law or the limits of a regional firm. OM was built to be the third option.
Our attorneys defend product liability, toxic tort, and insurance matters in state and federal courts nationwide, and serve as coordinating counsel for companies managing litigation across jurisdictions. Clients get national-caliber work delivered the way only a boutique can deliver it: focused teams, direct partner involvement, and no unnecessary overhead.

The OM Approach
Measured, prepared, and direct.
Our clients are sophisticated. They do not need theatrics. They need judgment, preparation, and results.
I.
Partner-led, start to finish.
The attorney you meet is the attorney who works your case. No layers, no handoffs, no surprises on the invoice.
II.
Strategy before motion practice.
Every matter begins with a candid assessment of exposure and a defined path to resolution, whether that is early disposition, negotiated outcome, or verdict.
III.
National reach, boutique attention.
OM attorneys appear in courts across the country and serve as regional and national coordinating counsel for companies managing litigation portfolios.
IV.
Built for the long run.
Most of our work comes from clients we have defended for years. We measure success the way they do: outcomes, efficiency, and no surprises.
Four offices. A national practice.
Our attorneys practice across seven jurisdictions and appear pro hac vice wherever our clients need us.
