Khari Tillery is known as a problem solver who happens to be a lawyer.
Whether representing companies or individuals, in civil or criminal matters, he begins every relationship by asking the same three questions: (1) what are the issues my client is facing (legal and otherwise); (2) what are my client’s primary concerns and strategic goals; (3) how can I help my client achieve their desired resolution as efficiently as possible? In some cases, resolution can only be achieved through aggressive litigation tactics, while other cases require a more subtle touch – and, of course, most cases require a little of both. Having tried seven cases in various forums, four as lead counsel, Mr. Tillery knows how to help his clients avoid litigation, set their cases up for a successful pretrial resolution, or win at trial.
During his 15 years of practice, he has advised on, litigated, and tried all manner of commercial disputes, while specializing in contract disputes, trade secret misappropriation, data privacy, unfair competition, and legal malpractice. He has trial experience in both federal and state court (including five jury trials), as well as binding arbitration.
Mr. Tillery maintains a robust pro bono practice, primarily representing wrongfully convicted prisoners in habeas corpus proceedings, individuals whose civil rights have been violated, and criminal defendants. He is also on the Board of Directors of the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights of the San Francisco Bay Area.
We are so excited to have you join us Khari!
