In this two-part feature in The AmLaw Litigation Daily “Litigation Leaders” interview series, Michael Bahar discusses how his many years in the US Navy, including service as a prosecutor, an aide to a Rear Admiral, and now a captain in the US Navy JAG Corps Reserves, shapes the way he leads.

He also breaks down where the firm’s litigation practice is headed, including its "excellence through preeminence" strategy and a deep investment in complex tech litigation, white-collar and government investigations, and national security.
