Litigation

Litigation can be critical in supporting or opposing a ballot measure.  Litigation often focuses on ballot and fiscal summaries, petition compliance, legislative procedural requirements, signature validity, election recounts and proposition constitutionality.

At Ballot Measure Group, LLC, we have coordinated litigation on dozens of ballot measures.  We bring a comprehensive perspective to ballot measure litigation, ensuring courtroom strategy dovetails with electoral strategy.  We work well with and respect the contributions of in-state co-counsel, critical partners in successful ballot measure litigation.
