Baker McKenzie Adds Litigator Dale Bish, Further Expanding Technology Disputes Capabilities
Leading global law firm Baker McKenzie announced today that Dale Bish has joined the Firm's Dispute Resolution Practice as a Partner in Palo Alto, CA.
A well-known litigator throughout Northern California, Dale represents clients on a wide range of complex commercial disputes, litigation, arbitration and enforcement proceedings, with a focus in the technology sector. His experience includes high-profile consumer class actions, including claims of false advertising, unfair competition, trademark infringement, and data privacy violations. Dale has litigated dozens of complex commercial cases, including significant contract disputes, antitrust, theft of confidential information, asset valuation and securities fraud matters for many of the leading companies in Silicon Valley. Over his career, Dale has advised more than 800 companies at all stages of growth in formal proceedings as well as resolving disputes prior to litigation.
"Dale has cultivated an exceptional career in the San Francisco Bay Area, earning widespread recognition as a top-tier litigator through his successful representation of leading global technology companies in complex, high-profile disputes," said Denise Glagau, Baker McKenzie's California Managing Partner. "Dale's arrival further strengthens our dynamic and growing litigation team on the West Coast, and we are thrilled to have him join us."
Added Widge Devaney, Chair of Baker McKenzie's Americas Dispute Resolution Practice, "Dale is the first call for technology companies when faced with a high-stakes dispute. He brings a steady hand, nuanced perspective and a wealth of industry experience. We are excited to have him on board."
With more than 1,000 battle-tested litigators, who have roots in their home jurisdictions and deep sector knowledge, Baker McKenzie's Dispute Resolution Practice is one of the largest and most recognized in the world. Consistently top-ranked by leading market surveys, the commercial litigation practice represents clients in complex multijurisdictional litigation. The Firm's cases frequently involve novel and precedent-setting issues in countries around the world, including markets where competing law firms do not have a local presence.
"I am thrilled to join Baker McKenzie and to leverage its incredible geographic and practice reach to guide clients through their most pressing disputes and challenges," said Dale. "The Firm's seamless global platform is a market differentiator and I look forward to working with my new colleagues to deliver exceptional service."
Dale's arrival follows other recent additions to the Firm's Disputes team, including technology litigator Christa Anderson in Palo Alto and Washington, DC, and government enforcement and national security lawyers Rod J. Rosenstein and Sumon Dantiki in Washington, DC.
Dale received his BA from UC Davis and his JD from UC Davis School of Law, Order of the Coif. He was the Senior Articles Editor for the UC Davis Law Review. Dale is licensed to practice in California.
