Justin Bernstein

Experience: Representative Matters: Ended double taxation resulting from a 46-year boundary dispute in three months by employing a never-before-used statute to file a suit directly in the Supreme Court of Texas.; Secured a settlement of more than $600,000,000 for a Fortune 100 company alleging securities fraud.; Dismissed an appeal with a standing challenge that had been overlooked for two decades in dozens of appellate decisions assuming standing in the same situation.; Reduced a $130,000,000 jury verdict to zero by arguing the dealership-purchase contract negated justifiable reliance on misrepresentations that contradict the contract.; Dismissed a wrongful-death claim based on forum non conveniens with novel arguments precluding the plaintiffs from avoiding dismissal by changing their residence after filing suit.; Upheld no-evidence summary judgment against a healthcare provider by arguing the plaintiffs' citations to hundreds of pages of testimony were insufficiently specific. This prevented vague, but emotionally resonant, arguments from reaching the jury.; Prevented burdensome litigation against a foreign client by arguing jurisdiction in Texas would offend traditional notions of fair play and substantial justice. This rarely successful argument prevailed despite the client's role as a manager of a Texas LLC that owned Texas real property related to the dispute.; Coordinated a national amicus-brief campaign to shape precedent on whether federal preemption prevents state regulation of air ambulances.; Obtained voluntary dismissal with prejudice of a lawsuit regarding a widely used medication.; Navigated a client unscathed out of an SEC investigation.; Advised several artificial intelligence companies on how to navigate their new technologies through preexisting regulations and contract language.;
