Kana Caplan

Partner. Kana has a reputation as a passionate and practical strategist. She advises clients navigating the litigation process, always with the aim of achieving the client’s larger goals. Kana always begins with the end in mind—whether the goal is positioning a case to prevail at trial, to obtain preliminary relief to shift the momentum of a case, or to achieve early resolution. She is often called upon to parachute into existing litigation cases that have languished and has obtained remarkable results for clients in such circumstances. As opposing counsel argued to the judge at a recent hearing, “everything was going great for us until she showed up.”
