The Daily Journal published an article on Bienert Katzman Littrell Williams LLP, highlighting the firm's history, its attorneys, and their "broad range of litigation skills that can make any case ripe for trial."   

As noted in the article, founding partner Tom Bienert left Irell & Manella in 2000 to open his own practice, which would eventually grow to include former Assistant United States Attorney and U.S. Trustee Steve Katzman in 2008 and Partner Mike Williams in 2018.  Over the years, the firm has secured multiple successes and victories, several of which are featured in the article.  Among other things, the Daily Journal takes note of the defense verdict secured by partners John Littrell and Tony Bisconti in the personal injury case filed against BKLW client James Harden.  Partner Whitney Bernstein's successful argument before the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals on due process and immigration issues is also featured.     

Tom emphasized the depth and breadth of the firm's expertise, noting that there's a "real a good assortment of experienced lawyers with backgrounds as former prosecutors, former public defenders, partners at civil firms, lawyers from major national firms, and a bunch of bankruptcy experts."
