CLE Spotlight: Multistate Motion Practice – Procedure, Pitfalls, and Practice Tips

In litigation, strong legal arguments alone are not always enough. Motion practice often shapes the course of a case, influencing what evidence is considered, which claims move forward, and, in some instances, whether a dispute is resolved before trial. Even seemingly minor procedural errors can have significant consequences.

A recent CLE led by GMR Partners Claire Neiger, Samantha Pullman, and Brandon Cohen explored the procedural and strategic considerations that can make a meaningful difference in litigation outcomes. The discussion highlighted common pitfalls, effective drafting techniques, and the importance of understanding court rules and deadlines. For clients, these issues underscore why attention to detail and thorough preparation remain critical at every stage of the litigation process.
